Arguably the finest dry fly steelhead stream in the Pacific Northwest, the North Umpqua represents the ultimate combination of challenge, scenic beauty and reward.  A wonderfully infectious river: glossy green tailouts, lichen covered cliffs, towering Douglas firs and a super-race of summer steelhead that rise to skated dries. Many consider the North Umpqua the graduate school of steelhead streams. More like a temptress, really, with beauty and mystique apparent to all, yet secrets understood by only a dedicated few. Appreciation for this river slips into your soul, and seduces you into becoming a better angler.  Under the skilled supervision of guides like Tony Wratney and Scott Howell, anglers will enjoy a fast track to success on the river. With elegant meals and accommodations at the historic Steamboat Inn, or more simple accommodations downstream, we can help you plan trips of any length to this remarkable system.
