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 16 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 15 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, is an absolute blast to have as a guide. Positive, encouraging and willing to work hard to fish water that needs to be hit. I’ve had over 20+ guides over the years and Dan is at the top of the list. We shared great conversation, laughs, and got some great fish in. Highly recommended, and I don’t say that lightly! Book immediately!

Spent 2 days on the Bow fishing with a buddy and Dan as our guide. He kept us on fish both days even though water was high and off color. He was great to work with and worked very hard to make sure we had a great time on the water. I would highly recommend Dan as your guide if you’re planning a trip to the Bow.

Had fun on the water and caught more fish all larger than we get back in the Midwest. My adult son can a 23 inch rainbow among the ten he netted. I did nearly as well. He truly respects the special resource and that was appreciated. I will search him out again if I get back to Calgary.
