Who I am…
Angling has been my number one passion since I can remember. I love sharing this passion and the places I fish, so becoming a fishing guide seemed to happen almost naturally. Meeting new people and teaching them about what make the fish and their environment so special is what makes me love my job even on the wettest, coldest days. I started my career in sport fishing at 15 years of age, when I took a dockhand position at Q.C.L in Haida Gwaii. I began guiding there the summer I turned 18 and continue to return every summer. Since then, I have guided many different fisheries through out B.C., from remote fly-in lodges on the Damdochax River in Northern B.C., to the mighty Fraser, and of course, my home river, the Cowichan. Above all else, I love chasing the giant chinook salmon of Haida Gwaii and taking people fly fishing on my raft. Seeing people’s excitement when they experience these beautiful places I love, gets me out of bed and on the water every day.
