A Full Day Guide Trip consists of float or wade fishing for one or two anglers. Our guides will put you on fish, instruct you in the finer points of the sport, and work their hardest to insure that your angling experience is a positive one. Unlike many operations, we do not adhere to banker's hours. If there is an evening spinner fall or caddis activity, expect to fish until you can no longer see your fly.

Are you looking to fish one of the best dry fly trout streams in the world? Meet the Missouri River, an excellent tailwater fishery.  Fishing is nirvana from below Holter Dam to the town of Cascade.  This prime expanse is very wadeable. Shallow water shelves and the many braided channels enable the dry fly fisherman to work "pods" of rising trout. The fish are primarily "hard fighting Rainbows", some of the hardest fighting found anywhere. The Rainbows and Browns average 14-22 inches, however, Browns can reach 8-10 lbs! Whether you’re a novice or an expert angler, Mark Daly, owner of Aguas Del Norte is there to make sure your trip is enjoyable and productive.

Now that you’ve decided to fish the Missouri, don’t leave anything to chance!  You’ll want to connect up with a well seasoned and professional guide; Mark Daly fills that order and then some.  He’s a national and international guide and knows how to take care of his clients… he takes his cues from you.  He’s vast knowledge of the river (over 25 years); easy going patient style and humor has earned him an extensive repeat clientele.   Contact Mark to ensure your trip to the Missouri is enjoyable, fun and a memorable one! Once you experience the Missouri, you might not want to leave…that’s okay, being a realtor, Mark can help you find that perfect piece of property! Make sure to contact Mark at Century 21 McDonald Realty, Inc.

Come join us for an unforgettable day on some of Oregon's most beautiful rivers! Fish for Cutthroat, Rainbow, Steelhead and Salmon Species on the North Santiam, Little North Santiam, Breitenbush, Siletz and Alsea Rivers.

Our #1 priority is your safety and enjoyment! We take care of the small stuff so you can enjoy your trip.

Our mission is to share our knowledge of this sport we enjoy so much with anglers of all levels - first timers to experienced anglers! We especially enjoy introducing newcomers to the sport of fishing and showing off our beautiful Oregon rivers.

Our guides take their cue from you. If you want assistance or advice, we'll give it! If you want us to simply row the boat and leave you alone, we'll do that too. We are experienced in all waters and all manners of fishing. Fly Fishing, Spin Casting, Bait Casting, Back Trolling, Bobber and Jigging - you name it, we do it! Each guide has their specialty, but we've spent years teaching and learning from each other.

We have year round fishing for a variety of species on multiple waterways. Fall Chinook and Coho, Summer and Winter Steelhead, Sea Run Cutthroat, Native Rainbows and Native Resident Cutthroat - all within a short drive of our headquarters in the Santiam Canyon.

Our home water is the North Santiam and it's tributaries. We've grown up and/or raised families within sight or a stone's throw from these waters. We aren't hired guns that blow into town during fishing season to guide. We live on this water 24 X 7 X 365!

Tight Lines and hope to see you soon!

– fly fishing adventures in the North Cascades and Olympic Peninsula!

Come join me in my quest for native Steelhead, Salmon, sea run Cutthroat and bull trout. Fishing has been a passion of mine for almost forty years. As a second generation guide, I have the patience and experience to make your day with me, on the water, one to remember and talk about for years to come.

Whether you’re a seasoned pro looking for time out on the water, someone looking to catch their first steelhead, need a corporate team building outing or just need some casting lessons, I will tailor a specific trip just for you.

With ten years of guiding experience in Washington and Alaska, your time with me will be spent on teaching you how to be a better fisherman or fisherwoman. From casting to reading water, presentation or even how to row a drift boat, educating you in a safe and fun way is my utmost priority!

Come join me in the spectacular wild and scenic North Cascades and Olympic Peninsula
