Experience the breathtaking California Redwood Coast with FINE&FAR guide service. We specialize in swinging flies for summer and winter run steelhead across pristine rivers, including the Eel, Smith, Klamath, and Trinity. Join us for an unforgettable angling adventure in one of nature's most unique settings.
All trips are spey only. Fine&Far guide service strives to emphasize best practices in the field and on the water. Steelhead are the primary focus during both the fall and winter seasons. These vaunted sea run trout have lured fly fishermen to journey north since the Irish immigrant John Benn first came to the Eel River by way of San Francisco in the 1880's. To this day they remain one of the ultimate prizes for anglers worldwide. Here on California's North-Coast we have the unique opportunity to target them amongst some of the last old growth stands of Redwood left. There is nothing else like it.
