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.

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

My husband and I fished for wild steelhead with Mike Donley, owner of Lost Forest Fishing, for four…read moredays at the end of March, 2016. 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. You're only about a 15 minute drive to La Push beaches and about 45 min to the Hoh Rainforest. 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. We'll loved our stay and will definitely be back.

Adam's Fishing Charters scores a perfect 5 from over 50 reviews on trip advisor. Adam helped to put me with another individual fisher to help split the cost and set us up for a morning trip.

Even though it was a slow day and the fish weren't biting, Temple was persistent and we ended up landing a big one! I will definitely be using them again and would recommend them to everyone!

Adam however called to advise us that winds were up so we weren't able to go out again. Highly recommended fishing charter righ in the inner harbor of Victoria. Would have given them a higher rating but the fish processing store they recommended didn't seem to know what they were doing and tried to short us four fillets. They eventually said I had the full amount when I came to pay but when I opened the sealed container after flying home, we were shorted 2 fillets. I do not recommend the fish processing on the Fisherman's wharf.

For us, it,…read moreand immediate surrounding area, offered a lovely, scenic spot for some short walkabouts to catch some waterfront sights & sounds, on our way to catch the ferry back home at Swartz Bay. Wow, what a lovely spot, and our stop here provided a nice, but too brief time to really absorb and experience the offerings, but we did what we could, and sure enjoyed the views. And a fun plus for us, was chatting with some of the local residents out for their morning walks with their dogs!! Within the Park, there is art (some 'fun and clever' sculptures associated with the 'Sidney Seaside Sculpture Walk' begin here), a small pavillion, picnic tables, and walkways along the waterfront (to really enjoy the seaside views). And nearby, the boardwalk out onto the Sidney Wharf (with fish market, restaurant, access to boats/ferries, and such), and the back-side of the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre (with it's own great nature-related sculptures, set on the living tide-pool setup). We now know what's there, and next trip will plan better, to enjoy a little more of what Sidney's Beacon Park, and area has to offer. edit to add: stopped by again, April 27, on the way to catch the ferry. Shot a few pictures of the sculptures.
