We are always looking for good additions to the family. We have been lucky to have some great help at the camp. Every new hire brings new energy and something to contribute. With the addition of the RV park, and the growth of the business over the last few years we are now needing to add a few more positions! This is a great opportunity for someone looking to break into the fly fishing industry, or for someone who has possibly been working for a bigger outfit and wants more responsibility and days! Being a smaller company our employees benefit from hands on training and lots of work and opportunities to be trained in various aspects of the business! Dependable, hard workers will find lots of room for advancement and great opportunities to make good money! We are looking to hire…

For the following positions

• Fishing guides – We have two positions to fill on the guide front. They could be filled by one person at a minimum but ideally we would like to add two more guides to the staff. Our biggest priority is for a gear runner (bagger) on the camp stretch. And also for a fishing guide. All guides need to have, or be able to acquire valid cpr/first aid cards. Fishing guides need a guide license (we can help with both) fishing guides also need a drift boat, with a dependable trailer and dependable vehicle to tow. Plus multiple years of fly fishing experience, ideally with guide experience and experience fishing and boating the Deschutes. We will train the right person(s) and this could be a great opportunity for someone to break into the industry as long as they have a good attitude, willingness to learn and have the fishing and boating experience to base on.

And be able to handle working outside in a wilderness environment typically alone for multiple days at a time.  Perks include good wages and tips, food, excellent training and experience for the right hire plus shop, and camp deals.
