When Toby was in 7th grade, his dad dropped him off at the river one day with a john boat with a 10hp Honda and his two buddies. In addition to the time that Toby spends on the Snake and Clearwater rivers along with their tributaries, Toby loves to fish the Hanford Reach for fall kings. As a child, anytime Toby passed a body of water he asked, “what kind of fish are in there? Can we go fish for them? How will we catch them?” Basically, twenty questions assessing the possible fishing adventure. His grandfather and father are/were both fishing guides which got Toby interested at a very young age. He has always been obsessed with fishing. Toby was born and raised in Clarkston, WA where he lives with his wife and two kids. He has been highlighted and showcased many times and has hosted outdoor shows for years. Toby is a very well-known guide on both the Columbia and the Snake/Clear-water systems. He has a demeanor that makes you want to fish with him and then take him out for dinner and a beer. I always like watching shows when Toby is the featured guide. Reel Time Fishing I recently watched an episode of Northwest Fishing Reports where the film crew were fishing with Toby Wyatt on the famed Clearwater River in Idaho. Rain, snow or sun, Toby is ready to fish. We are hoping that this helps to outline some of the things that make guides successful, fun to fish with and for other guides, tips on how to become a better guide, both on the water and as a business owner. The purpose of this column is to highlight some of the guides we have here in the Pacific Northwest for our readers to aid in the selection of a guide who fits your needs.
