My name is Caylen Phegley, and I've called the Olympic Peninsula home for nearly 30 years. Here, I've honed my passion for world-class salmon and steelhead fishing since childhood. My journey began with my old man dropping me off to bushwhack the banks of smaller rivers along the Coast from the ages of twelve to fifteen with a Penn 209 level wind on an 8'6" Ugly Stik, a backpack full of Top Ramen and granola bars, and a pair of rubber hip boots.
At 15, I jumped into a Willie Drift Boat and started learning river navigation while diversifying my fishing techniques. Through understanding fish behavior and observing them in each unique river system under various conditions, I gained the knowledge and skills to start guiding at nineteen.
Tucked away on the remote Olympic Peninsula, surrounded by water on three sides and backed up by the Olympic Mountains, we have Forks, Wa. We experience some of Washington State's most sought-after rivers and fish here along with the highest rainfall. This unique setting creates lush rainforests teeming with wildlife and crisscrossed by wild & scenic rivers—a paradise for fishing enthusiasts chasing that 20-pound steelhead or Jurassic salmon.
As a local guide in Forks, Washington, for most of the year, I focus on providing exceptional fishing experiences in this area. When not guiding here, I travel seasonally to Alaska and Chile to host specialized fishing trips.
Fishing here in Forks, Washington, I’m using my Custom Built 14’ NRS/ Headwaters Raft and 18’ Clackamax. With access to seven distinct river systems, we have ample opportunities for successful outings. Based on weather, river conditions, your desired species, and the time of year, I carefully select where we fish and which vessel we use. I'll confirm the exact meeting location and time 24-48 hours before our trip. Each trip averages 8-16 river miles, lasting 4-12 hours depending on fish limits, your preferences, or expectations.
I'm thrilled to share the beauty of the Olympic Peninsula, Alaska or Chilé and its exceptional fishing with you. Join me for an unforgettable adventure on these pristine waters.
