We met him before dawn around 3am and followed him to the spot where we loaded ourselves into the raft in pitch black darkness (this is an ultimate trust factor here mind you) into the river before the sun came up. Shane oared us himself through the river minus the areas with rapids where we just floated through and took us along all the special spots. Bait and fishing lines are all prepared by Shane ahead of time which made the process effortless and carefree. I caught a small Chinook this day with a spinner at the very end of our trip. Trip ended around noon. We went home with our heart cups filled with adventure. Definitely WORTH IT! Will post up some pics later.

We quickly get on the road which proceeded to get really curvy and hilly. I slowed down because I was unfamiliar with the roads and slightly tired. I noticed him pull in ahead of me and I think to myself that was nice of him to let us catch up. He steps out of the truck and come over to the driver side we're my done is and asks me if I am up for the trip. I said what are you talking about. He said clearly I am not up for it. Gave me back my deposits down said I was late. I Traveled all the way from Washington DC to go salmon fishing with my son. What a letdown

If you are looking for a fishing guide for steelhead in the rivers around Forks, WA, we highly recommend Lost Forest Fishing. Personally, I had not fished at all in several years and initially booked the trip just for my husband, who is an avid fly fisherman. I went along for the boat ride the first day just to enjoy the scenery and Mike encouraged me to give the fishing a try the next day. By the end of the week, Mike had taught me the basics of a single spey cast AND I brought my first ever wild steelhead to net while nymphing from the boat. My husband, the experienced fisherman, also had a very successful four days fishing and greatly appreciated Mike's instruction and knowledge of the rivers. We definitely plan to make a return trip to Forks next winter and look forward to more fishing with Lost Forest Fishing. Mike also guides in the Jackson Hole area during the summer season and we hope to make a trip down there sometime this year or next to fish with Mike.

The B&B is a few minutes drive out on the outskirts of Forks, just the right distance to be convenient and yet very private.

We were fortunate enough to be able to rent the River House over Memorial Day due to a last minute cancellation (book early, it can be booked out several weeks in advance). The house has plenty of space indoors, with all the amenities and rustic cabin decor. The Bogachiel runs a stone's throw from the spacious outdoor deck.

It's not too large and was relatively quiet, although some sites are kind of close to the main road and might get some traffic noise.

There are nice clean bathrooms with shower stalls. I really loved that this campground had some small trails through and near it, and I loved walking down to the river at the end of the day.

We have fished several of the coastal rivers over the years as well as Lewis, Cowlitz, and Columbia rivers. Bob and Tracy run a great operation and he has to be the hardest working guide out there. I love that he is willing to help other anglers too. He is very unselfish with gear and advice. If you get a chance to fish with Bob, Bill, or Ryan you are in for some of the best fishing anywhere in the world. Should you decide to book a trip stay at the Miller Tree Inn (aka Cullen House) where you will get an awesome breakfast to start your trip and great accommodations.
