What people are saying about us

We've been outfitting and guiding people from all over the world since 1997. Here's what some of our fishing friends are saying about us:

"I was in the Northwest Outfitters shop recently when a customer came in with a rod he had just broken. It was a busy day, and all the 'loaner rods" were out with clients. Rather than have this guy wait until his rod came back from repair, Pat loaned him his own, personal rod so this customer wouldn't miss out on a big trip he had planned. Now that's over-the-top service!" - B. Dougherty (July 2009)

"I just returned from Coeur d'Alene. What a great experience! My instructor was great at finding ways to help each individual really get it! It was a fun and very informative time. I highly recommend the class for anyone wanting to get into fly fishing. What I have been trying to learn on my own really came together in class. It was money well spent." - J. Hill (June 2005)

"My wife and I signed up for the Fly Fishing School having no previous experience with fly fishing or fishing for trout. At the end of our second day of class I found myself reeling in a trout on a fly rod. The entire experience was GREAT! The instructor covered the "text book" type material as well as sharing his own personal experiences. When it came time to pick up a rod and start casting our instructor spent a great deal of time with each of us one on one. Northwest Outfitters, the host for our Fly Fishing School, did a wonderful job answering our questions outside of class, whether they were tackle-related or finding a spot to fish on our own. I wish we had taken this class years ago! If you are thinking about learning to fly fish then this is the place to go." - K. Hicks (June 14, 2005)
