Zach Carothers has seen it all, seen a lot. As a founding member of the Grammy Award winning band, Portugal The Man, Zach toured the world almost nonstop for 20 years. Performing on every continent, with the exception of Antartica, and far too many countries to count Zach would look longingly at the rivers from the window of a tour bus. Growing up in Alaska, Zach has a deep connection with the outdoors. When the waters of Willow Creek, Little Susitna, and Montana Creek are in your backyard, fishing becomes part of your DNA. If you beg Zach, he might give you some information about the secret Carothers fishing spot on XXXXX creek. Several years ago Zach realized that he could play bass and fish on the same day, so he would start every tour with an extra bag that carried his rods, waders, and selection of flies for anywhere in the world. Touring is hard and Zach decided it was time to listen to his heart and commit to fishing full-time and start guiding trips in the Pacific Northwest. Zach is looking forward to showing you his favorite spots. Experienced and newbies are welcome.

“I have been around the world and seen so many incredible things but I am still most happy when I am standing knee deep in crystal clear water, come hang with me and we can share a great time, tell some stories, and catch some fish."
