Met Mike for a sturgeon charter with our 13 year old son-- surreal! He's a great guy, so excited about each bite! It was infectious. They were hitting, we got two doubles and busted a rod! The day went far too quickly but it was and is one of the BEST experiences humanly possible. Excellent trip, fantastic company and something we are already planning to do again. Thank you Mike!

I have been fishing for over 40 years. This was, by far, the best trip I have ever had. Mike was absolutely amazing. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Took my son (17), best friend, friend from school and his son on a sturgeon adventure with Mike. I have fished with Mike before and he was and is one of the best humans you’ll come in contact with. He put us in fish and my son was the first one on the boat to land a fish (within 10 minutes) which was a 6.5’ White Sturgeon. Then it was our turn. After it was all said and done, we ended the day with 20 fish caught and a bunch of tired fishermen and some pretty epic sunburns and only one of those is Mike’s fault but everyone of us will be back. None of us has had that much fun before. HIGHLY recommend.

Great day catching steelhead on the Wilson with Mike.

What an incredible day on the Wilson River. Mike is professional in every way. We floated the lower Wilson twice the day we were with him. He worked hard to put us on fish when we were facing low and clear water conditions. At the end of the day we hooked and landed our fish. Highly recommend Mike Hazen.

Went out fishing for Springers with Mike last week and we had an incredible time.  The energy he brings to the boat really showcases his love for fishing. He has a wealth of knowledge about the Oregon fishing system and is happy to educate. We were also fortunate enough to land a couple. It was a memorable day with family and we will be sure to book with him again. Highly recommend

Absolutely the best fishing trip that I have ever been a part of. I got to watch my son and son in-law catch their first steelhead.
