Just in time for Christmas!

Post by natetreat » Thu Nov 08, 2012 9:22 am

Well, with November starting to come around, Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to be here faster than you'd think! It's a good time to start thinking about gifts and holiday vacation time.

With the spirit of giving in mind,for the holidays I'm going to have some special gift certificates available at bargain prices! Winter steelhead are staging in the salt, coho are still strong, and late November and all of December are going to be great for winter steelhead. What better way to give a gift than to get out on the water and catch some fish!

The Christmas special gift certificates are just the ticket for a good stocking stuffer, and they'll give you plenty of room under the tree for everything else! A certificate for 1 trip for two is only $200, which is a great deal.

I also have a great deal on a multiple trip package. 3 trips/lessons for 2 anglers for $550, on any of the rivers that I work. This is a killer deal, and after 3 lessons with me, you'll know everything you need to know to catch fish every time you go out! 3 trips on 3 rivers will give you an arsenal of information to catch fish every time you get out, and that's a great gift for the fishermen in the family or even a Christmas bonus for your best employees. And if you don't have anyone to give it to, keep it for yourself because it's a great deal!

They come in a neat little package too, so they'll look good in the stocking. They never expire either, so if you can't find time during the holidays, or want to wait for better weather, that's totally okay.

The steelhead are here! Not in big numbers, but it bodes well for the upcoming winter run. Nothing beats a Thanksgiving leftover sandwich on the river with a steelhead on the stringer!

More fish from the last couple weeks. And more to come! The way things are shaping up, this is going to be the perfect season to catch your first steelhead. Gift certificates are still available, and the rates apply even if you're just buying the trip for yourself. It's a good time to start catching fish!

The way things are shaping up, it might be early February before I catch my first steelhead. #-o [thumbup]

Steelhead are still here! There's been a lot of interest in these gift certificates, and I've had some inquiries and requests for single person gift certificates. So I've put it together and here's the deal: 125 for a single trip and 325 for three trip single person gift certificates. This will give you guys that are starting up but don't know anyone that fishes the oppurtunity to take advantage of this really good deal. These are good on all of the rivers I fish, so it can be a really good deal. I'm lining up peninsula trips as well, and although it's starting out slow we're still going to be finding fish this year, but having someone that knows where they're hiding will bring your chances up significantly! Make someone really happy this year and give 'em a trip out with me and we'll get them catching fish!

This big teener hen is an indication of what's to come this year! See you out on the water. For more information, send me a PM or an email at natetreatfishing@gmail.com
