Thinking through to fall fisheries on the Skagit and wondering if anybody could recommend a good shuttle service around the Marblemount/ Steelhead park section of the river? Found 1 guy online: http://www.northcascades.com/Rivertrips.htm

If I saw you hitchhiking I'd either swerve to the other side of the road to get as far from you as possible...or swerve hard the other way Hitchhiking has worked for me up there, too, as there are lots of fishermen driving around up there all the time... Larry's only $20, too, and that's a pretty good deal for a shuttle. The gas would cost me $10 just to drive around and do it myself as it is, and it sure is a pleasure to get to the takeout and find your rig and trailer there waiting for you. Fish on... Todd

after seeing that port-a-potty at Marblemount I am skeptical about hitch hiking... either some disgruntled locals or one mean grizzly bear!

He does them 7 days per week...he's retired and on a fixed income, so the extra coin does him good. I usually give him $30 Fish on... Todd

If you hitch hike carry a rod and waders. You will get picked up real quick.

I usually just ride my bike...or tell Kaiser that today could be the day a Skagit/Sauk local makes him their beeatch, and he usually jumps on the hitch hiking opportunity. 'Sup, Curt? Did you get out over the last week? Fish on... Todd
