From SE British Columbia and have been flyfishing since I was 12 years old. I learned the most from my high school basketball coach who was also an avid steelheader - I haven’t looked back. The sport evolved over the years and I eventually began rowing rafts and drift boats 14 years ago. Eventually that led to guiding for Ultimate West Flyfishing on the St Mary River(Kimberley,B.C) where I developed my rowing skills in technical water and for the last 12 seasons I’ve been on the Bow River in Calgary, AB. I enjoy helping people experience the sport of flyfishing and sharing memories with amazing people from all around the world.
Dan currently has no trips available. Please check back soon!

VerifiedAbsolutely incredible time! Guides Dan and Jack were amazing. I fished with Dan myself and as a trout guide myself in SW Montana I couldn’t be more impressed. Had a great day and caught lots of very nice fish. Will definitely be back to fish the Bow river and wouldn’t want to do it with anyone besides those two!

What an experience! From the stunning views, the beautiful and robust fishery, and the wonderful camaraderie it was an experience I won’t soon forget. I had the pleasure to go with Dan for what was originally scheduled for a half day trip but quickly pivoted to a full day. I cannot speak highly enough of Dan - he is knowledgeable, personable, and an excellent teacher of the art of fly fishing. He takes the time to learn your level and goals and personalizes the trip to ensure you get the best experience possible. I have been lucky enough to take several guided fishing trips but this was hands down the best one I have ever taken. I wish I could give 10 stars for both Dan and the Bow river. We will definitely be back! Tight lines!
