About
The best kept secret in Oregon is the Grande Ronde River. The Grande Ronde is a forested and desert oasis rich with wild big rainbows and bull trout and hearty sea-run steelhead, abundant wildlife and stunning scenery that all anglers will enjoy. It is also a river that Marty and Mia have been guiding on for 2 decades from the Minum to Troy section. THis section of river is 45 miles long and can be fished from the boat or you can walk and wade the runs.
Marty and Mia create exceptional fishing experiences for anglers by providing the most comfortable camps and preparing the tastiest meals using fresh produce and meats and utilize Dutch ovens when permitted.
The Sheppards run multi-day float trips for both trout and steelhead. Trout trips focus on the Minumto Troy section for both trout and steelhead. Typically the camp crew will hustle downstream to secure and set up camp while the anglers work their way downstream in rafts fishing from the boat or getting out to wade fish at prime locations. In addition to having earned a reputation for great camps and cooking, the Sheppards are well known for providing great instruction and making their guests better anglers. Whether you want to work on your overhand or spey cast, dry fly presentations or become a better wader, the Sheppards have what it takes to improve your game.
