If you like to steelhead fish, this is an amazing trip.

Great fishing, food and fun! The outfitter does a great job of hosting and Patrick Kissel is one of the best guides I’ve had the pleasure of fishing with. I would very highly recommend this steelhead trip. Alaska is up next!

There's a reason I keep booking this steelhead fishing trip!
Second time I’ve done this particular trip. The steelhead run was awesome! The food was even better than the first time, which is hard to imagine, and our guide is the best there is! If catching big fish is your thing I highly recommend booking through Outdoors International.

We had an incredible time fishing in Mexico. We've already booked our next trip and can't wait to go back!

I expected big trout on this trip based on all the stories I've read over the years, and I was not disappointed! I broke my own personal best rainbow trout record at least SIX times on this trip, with the biggest being a 16 pound beauty.

I will be going again soon!
