I did a search on this and found that although other people have asked for advice on guides, many of the responses have asked the original poster to be specific, so here goes:

I'd like recommendations for guides on the Lewis and/or Kalama. I do NOT have a lot of experience or knowledge, and want to learn. I'm currently a gear guy, so I'm not looking for a fly guide. I would eventually like to get into the fly game, but I'm not there yet.

I live near these rivers and am interested in learning how to fish them rather than continuing to bungle around like an idiot without ever catching anything \:\) That's getting old. I am happy to C&R and would like to target steelhead, salmon, and trout.

So, suggestions?

Thanks in advance--I've gained a lot of knowledge from this board and look forward to the day when I know enough to contribute to others!
