About the Guide
My name is Kent Anderson. Born and raised in NW Oregon, I have been fishing since my father introduced me to the sport at an early age. I have a degree in Fisheries Technology from Mt. Hood CC in Gresham Oregon, followed by nearly 10 years of work for state and federal fish & Wildlife agencies. In 1995, I was given the opportunity to work as a fishing guide in Alaska (dream job, right). I figured that I should at least give it a try, so I resigned my position with the State Of Oregon and headed north. I quickly realized it was a job and not a vacation, but I also realized how much I enjoy being around people. It is very rewarding watching the excitement of someone catching his or her first salmon. I began guiding year round in 1997. I'm a member of several conservation and professional organizations including Northwest Sportfishing Industry Assc.(NSIA), NW Steelheaders, Northwest Guides Association, and Rocky Mtn Elk Foundation. Annually I donate trips to assist these organizations. I am licensed by the Oregon State Marine Board, US Coast Guard, conduct annual First Aid and CPR training and am enrolled in a random drug screen program. I have hundreds of stories to tell, am willing to listen to yours, and provide you with another story to tell. Lets Go Fishing.
The Boat
We fish and float in an aluminum drift boat. Our 2005 Willie 19' X 60" drift boat is set-up to fish four people comfortably.
Seats are padded with backrests, handy rod holders, drink holders, stable design allows you to stand and propane heaters to take away the chill. Visit www.willieboats.com
