Jesse is extremely knowledgeable and willing to not just help you catch fish but to teach you along the way. Lots of 4 to 5 lb smallmouth bass in the bag.

What a day! Jesse was knowledgeable, precise, and made the day incredible. We were reeling in 3 and 4 lb bronzebacks within 20 mins of getting on the boat, and caught over 25 in all! We went back in an inlet bay, fished docks, and caught a few large mouths as well! Super cool local guy, that just knows and loves fishing! I highly recommend Castcadia Outfitters!!

Jesse is a great guide/teacher and has extensive local knowledge of the fisheries. He likes to teach and share knowledge. Highly recommend for individuals with limited fishing experience or people with a lot of experience he will still teach you something

I have been on two guided trips with Jessy, one for sockeye salmon up in Brewster and one for steelhead on the clear river in Idaho, on both trips we did awesome, caught limits both times and had a blast. Jessy is a great guide and really knows the the species of fish he's after and knows where and what to use to catch them, even when other guides aren't catching fish. You can't go wrong booking a trip with him!

Incredible experience. As a tournament bass angler from North Texas, I had no idea what to expect. Jessie and his team more than delivered! Both of my sons and me were able to catch our personal best smallmouth bass. Not only was our guide patient and knowledgeable, he was just a pleasure to be in the boat with. If you’re in the Coeur d’Alene Idaho area I totally recommend CastCadia Outfitters!

Jessie was first class all the way. Put us on fish under tough conditions, and made we had a great day. Plus his food recommendations in cda were spot on!

I've had the 2 best fishing trips with Castcadia. Chinook Salmon on the Columbia, and Smallmouth Bass on Lake Coeur d'Alene! Get your boys together and book the trip. You'll be glad you did. From newbies who never fish, to the experienced fishers, Jesse will make it a great time.

Jesse was amazing. So knowledgeable and patient, especially given my novice skills. It’s clear he’s an expert and has the inside scoop on where the fish are biting. Over 4 hours, we caught upwards of 20 fish. I would recommend to anyone looking for a great fishing experience.

This is my second year fishing with Jesse, and I’m honestly looking forward already for next trip. I highly recommend fishing with him. I have done a few fishing trips through the years and I have to say Jesse is one of the beat. He is very patience, very knowledgeable and what makes him different in my opinion is that he is very humble and does his best to make sure his clients have a great time. If you’re a beginner of an experience fisherman don’t hesitate to book with Jesse. You will have a blast. Thanks for the nice kings Jesse!
