The Newest of the Fleet!

Our new North River Seahawk is powered by a Yamaha 150hp 4-stroke engine with an 8-horse kicker and Minnkota bowmount - both with auto-pilot. If you look through the photos on our 2008 Photo Gallery, you will see that Andy comes by his fishing-addiction naturally.

We are serious about providing you with an enjoyable experience. Meet our captains: Anton Jones, owner and lead fishing guide, Al Brooks, a lifelong resident and experienced fisherman on Lake Chelan, and Andy Byrd, who brings youth and energy. With Al and Andy:

A. In late spring through summer we are now offering 4 hour evening trips for the conventioneer or vacationer that is busy during the day.

B. We are offering full-day-only trips to Rufus Woods Reservoir. The winter fishery there is renowned for its record Triploid Rainbow Trout and jumbo Kokanee, with trophy Walleye also a possibility. and

C. Dependent on the Department of Fish and Wildlife, Columbia River Salmon and Steelhead are possible.



Here are all three of the Darrell & Dad's Guide Service captains Anton Jones, Al Brooks and Andy Bryd (in order).
