Shaun is pro-staff for Paulina Peak Tackle Company, Yakima Bait, Daiwa, and Scotty Fishing Products. Top-tier gear on every trip.
Shaun also offers guide instruction on your boat. This service is designed to help you dial in your catch rate on your own vessel. Call for pricing.
The Boat
The main vessel is a 22-foot Boulton Sea Skiff with a full top, side curtains, back drop curtain, and a heater for the cold Donner mornings. It's so warm buttoned up, you'll be completely comfortable even in winter.
For Feather River King Salmon, trips run out of a Design Concepts jet boat that seats four comfortably.
