Washington State Fishing Guides, run by Captain Scotty out of Montesano, connects anglers with guided fishing trips across a wide swath of Washington’s rivers and coastal fisheries, from the Columbia River’s Buoy 10 to the Hanford Reach, and from the Willapa River to the Hoh. The business positions itself as a one-stop resource for finding the right guide and the right water, rather than being limited to a single river system.
Trips target steelhead, salmon (Kings, Silvers, and Coho), and sturgeon depending on the season and location, with every trip fully guided and including lunch and fishing gear. Lodging is also available directly on the property in Montesano for guests looking to make a weekend of their trip rather than a single day out.
Pricing is straightforward and published directly: a single-angler steelhead or salmon trip runs $300, while a two-person trip for steelhead, salmon, or sturgeon runs $500, as does a two-person family fishing trip. A $50 deposit secures a booking date, with the remaining balance handled directly with Scotty by phone or text.
For anglers looking for a well-connected, one-stop Washington fishing guide service covering everything from Columbia River salmon to Olympic Peninsula steelhead, Washington State Fishing Guides offers straightforward, published pricing and guided access to some of the state’s best-known rivers out of Montesano.
