Randy is a busy guide all year round. He works in the Elk Valley throughout the summer months; but just as soon as he has come; he is whisked away by the calling of the BC West Coast Steelhead. In the spring he continues his guiding in the south Chilcotin; which is another beautiful part of BC. It’s easy to say that when it comes to Fernie’s angling guides Randy is the complete package. He is a semi retired Fisheries Biologist who grew up in the East Kootenay’s fishing the local rivers and still-waters. For the past three decades he has worked in Wildlife, Fisheries and Ecosystems management throughout the province of B.C. In the fall he migrates to Vancouver Island and guides for salmon and steelhead. Whether your main interests are to catch fish, education, or enjoy a peaceful day drifting the river you are certain to have a rewarding experience with Randy. He is passionate about sharing his knowledge and skills, and is particularly interested in connecting the next generation to the outdoors so he also guides the local Eco-tourism river drifts. Randy rows a Hyde drift boat!
