Tim's Drift Fishing Guide Service

Started in 1992, ...I have the oldest, continually operated Fishing Guide Service in the Mother Lode / Central Sierra region!

Only a short two hour and fifteen minute drive from many cities in the San Francisco Bay Area. These guided trips are an easy one day adventure. Or you may take advantage of a multi-day trip, fishing several local rivers.

The Merced, Toulumne or Stanislaus rivers are the rivers I guide on. For multi- day adventures, I suggest staying in the historic National Hotel in Jamestown, well known as one of the best Victorian era hotels anywhere in the Mother Lode. It has a fine restaurant and bar to relax in after fishing.

Not far from Yosemite, this area has some of the finest fishing for wild rainbow trout in the entire Central Sierra.

A 5th generation Californian, I have fished these local rivers for over 46 years now! I've had a State of California Guides license for over 16 years. I know I have the experience to provide you with a very satisfying angling experience.
