What You Can Expect
I’ve been asked more than once, “Can you guarantee me fish?”
My answer is always the same: if you want guaranteed fish, Safeway is probably your best bet. But if you want to learn more about fishing, understand the river a little better, and spend the day with someone who is going to work his ass off to give you the best shot possible—then I’m your guy.
A guide is just that: a guide. I can’t control the fish, the weather, or the river. What I can control is how hard I work, how I adapt when things change, and the effort I put into your day.
I don’t guide to show you how great of a fisherman I am. I guide because I love fishing, I love these rivers, and I enjoy helping people feel more confident on the water. Ask questions. Want to know why we’re trying something? Ask. The more you take away from the day, the better.
My goal is simple: give you a great day on the river, put you in the best position possible to catch fish, and hopefully send you home with a story and maybe dinner, too.
Why Fish with Petosa Fishing?
Why fish with me? Because I care about the whole experience. I want you to catch fish, obviously, but I also want you to leave knowing more than you did when you got on the boat. I’ll explain what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and help you build confidence on the water.
I’ve spent most of my adult life on the water. From commercial salmon fishing in Alaska to guiding the Skagit and Sauk Rivers, fishing has never just been something I do once in a while. It’s what I love.
I’ll bring the effort, experience, and a willingness to adjust when conditions change. You bring a good attitude and a crew ready for a great day.
