Larry Averett's Guide Service

Michael Shearer has been fishing these rivers since a young age — would you believe the age of 4. He has been fishing Oregon and California rivers for over 30 years. Michael has many outstanding credentials and qualifications having worked most of his life in the great outdoors. Come and learn from him about Oregon's outdoor adventures. Michael loves the beautiful North Umpqua River as he watches from the deck on his house located at the unique area where the North Umpqua and Little River meet. (The only place in the world where two rivers meet head on.)

Gary Leon has owned and operated his own guide service for 27 years as Osprey Guide Service. Gary began his guiding experience on the famous Somes Bar Lodge in northern California. His specialties are Steelhead and Salmon on the 26 mile portion of drift boat fishing of the scenic North Umpqua River. Gary has plenty of experience with Fall Chinook and Winter Steelhead, these of course being his favorites. Gary also enjoys fishing on the southern Oregon coastal region of rivers, like the Elk, Sixes and Coquille. Gary would love to take you out on a fishing experience of a life time. If you would like, please ask for Gary on your next trip into the Great Oregon outdoors.

Larry Averett has been fishing Oregon rivers since the age of 12. He grew up fishing the North Umpqua River from his uncle’s cabin located on its banks. Since then, he has learned the secrets of many of Southern Oregon’s majestic rivers. Larry has over 25 years of fishing experience to guide you with. Southern Oregon has a wide variety of scenic and beautiful rivers to fish. Depending on when and what kind of fishing you would like to do, you can fish the world famous Umpqua and Rogue river systems to the remote rivers like the Coquille and Smith. You can locate them on the map above. Our Guides have many years of fishing experience, with many tournaments and Derby winners, and are willing to share it with you. Many large fishing lodges just take you fishing and don’t show you the ropes. We will take you to some of our favorite spots where the fish like to hang out. We can’t guarantee that you will catch a fish but we will try our best, besides that’s why they call this fishing and not catching. Michael, Gary and myself are among our staff of guides that will ensure you have a good time. The rest is up to you. So book a trip of a lifetime for that trophy fish that you will always remember. We can also set up your trip from as little as just going fishing, to setting up lodging, meals and whatever is needed to make your trip work for you.

Our staff of guides have many credentials and qualifications, including U.S. Coast Guard licensing and first aid, and CPR training for your added safety.
