Client Testimonials

Great Trout Fishing on Lower Deschutes
"My friend and I really enjoyed our day on the lower Deschutes River with Dan Anthon. He knew where to have us fish and the types of flys that were working. Very patient and excellent casting and fishing advise. My friend who has used a number of guides said Dan was the best. Highly recommend Dan as a guide, and I'm sure he would be great on other Oregon rivers. If back in Oregon, will definitely join Dan again." ~ Tom, Virginia

Float Trip on the McKenzie
"My friend and I had a great float on the McKenzie River in early July, guided by Dan. He put extra effort into getting us on great spots and that resulted in lots of hook ups all day. Also enjoyed the lunch along the river in the middle of the day. We have been guided by Dan before and would definitely seek him out again when visiting the Bend area." Tom C, Seattle

Lower Deschutes float trip
"Dan was our guide on the Lower Deschutes for a full day float trip. I was the picture taker. My husband, an experienced dry-fly fisherman, learned nymphing. Our 23yo daughter, a novice. Had a great day on the river. Caught a few fish. Even saw a black bear along the river. Dan was very knowledgeable and imparted his love of the sport. Highly recommend." ~ Sandy J., Pennsylvania
