A fly fisherman for 20+ years, a fly tier for over 15, and professional guide since 2001,

Andrew brings a very diverse guiding resume to the table, gained while working for
some of the industries top outfitters in Colorado, Alaska, Argentina, Chile, and New
Zealand. He’s now a Western Washington based guide who spends the majority of his
time chasing steelhead in some of the state’s top fishing destinations.

“I’m proud to be affiliated with a brand that makes quality products that I can stand
behind. As a spey angler I’m excited to see the incredible workmanship that Kingpin is
known for being put towards making such a high quality click and pawl, spey-oriented
reel.”

Andrew also works closely with the Avid Angler store in WA who we carry a nice range of
kingpin reels.
