Live Auction Item Preview:
Two Days Guided Fishing with Rich Zellman of Steelhead Water |
|
Rich Zellman isn't just another steelhead guide. A relaxed, patient, hands-on, and driven approach makes Rich stand out amongst the crowd, and he puts anglers in the best water, at the best time, with the best flies and presentations. Rich has dedicated his life to the pursuit of wild steelhead, and he graciously shares his knowledge and expertise with his guests. Join Rich on one of the Pacific Northwest's famed steelhead rivers like the North Umpqua, Trinity, Smith, or Rogue, for the chance of a life-changing encounter with a wild steelhead on the fly. This package is good for two days of guided fishing for one or two anglers, and includes loaner tackle, if preferred. Learn more about Rich and enjoy his inspiring images and prose on his website, Steelhead Water. |
