Our Staff, Guides & Instructors

At Northwest Fly Fishing Outfitters, we're proud to be a local, family-owned fly shop with a team of experienced guides, fly fishing instructors, and dedicated shop staff who are here to help anglers of every skill level. Because our staff doesn't just work the sales floor—they also guide trips, teach classes, and spend real time on the water—you get expert advice, current fishing reports, proven tips and tactics, and honest recommendations on the best fly fishing gear, fly rods, reels, flies, waders, and accessories for your next adventure.

We offer the kind of selection you'd expect from a major outdoor retailer, but with a level of personal service, product knowledge, and fly fishing expertise that big box stores simply can't match. When you shop with a small independent fly shop like ours, whether in-store or online, you're supporting local guides, instructors, and their families while getting the same competitive prices you'd find elsewhere. The reality is, if you're looking for a trusted fly shop with premium fly fishing gear, expert guidance, and a team that truly cares about helping you succeed on the water, you're in the right place.
