Being guided by Jack Trout on the Upper Sacramento River has been on my bucket list for years. The trip did not disappoint. Jack is an excellent white water rafter and excellent fly fishing instructor. I have fly fished for over 25 years but learned techniques in the first 10 minutes with Jack that I didn’t know and continued to learn throughout the day. He is an interesting conversationalist with vast life experiences, but is always attentive to the anglers needs. He also provides a great lunch and has a cool canine companion. Overall one of the best days ever, and I highly recommend a guided trip with Jack Trout.…

What a fantastic experience. From start to finish, my dad and I had the best day chasing steelhead with Jack. He showed us how to navigate the side float style fishing, which we were beginners at, with expertise, and we both landed beautiful adult steelhead. Plenty of laughs, good stories, and local natural history knowledge. I’m also a professional cycling guide and have worked with hundreds of guides in all corners of the industry. I’d recommend Jack Trout’s guiding service to anyone who wants an authentic and expertly guided day on the water.…

Went with Jack Trout for my first time fly fishing and it was amazing! We floated the upper sac river which is beautiful! Jack is so knowledgeable and knows how to get you hooked up on beautiful fish both on dry and nymphs. I had very little experience fly fishing going in but he was very patient and understanding and got me on some beautiful trout. I can honestly say my day out with Jack was the best day of fishing I've ever had and he taught me alot! Already looking into my next trip with Jack Trout!…
