About me 
Jack Trout, owner and guide, started fishing Northern California streams and rivers as a youngster, with his father, a fishing guide on the Feather River in the little town of Portola, California. Since 1994, Jack has guided and outfitted in the Mt Shasta area and as far away places as Chile, Argentina and Belize. He has been featured on Fly fishing shows such as ESPN, Outdoor Life Network, Fine Living Network and PBS, as well as written about in the San Francisco Chronicle and San Jose Mercury. Jack has written for Fodor's Travel Books on Fly Fishing Chile & Argentina. His passions are people and teaching fly fishing. He is an expert oarsmen and is a certified class 4 rafting guide as well. Jack has fly fished all over the world in 23 countries. On many of these trips Jack was the client, scrutinizing his guides to determine what he liked and disliked about each one, giving him the opportunity to develop and offer one of the best client-oriented guide services available. Jack is always enthusiastic with his clients and is very good at listening to and answering questions. He willingly shares his knowledge and is always empathetic to individual needs. For the novice, veteran, or something in between, Jack's keen sense and intuitive nature provide a customized experience. Jack knows the holes that hold the quality wild trout our local waters are so famous for as well as in other countries. Jack is famous for always finding the best possible guides in the industry to work with. Jack Trout is always a strong supporter of stream protection.
