We understand that there are many guides to choose from when booking a fishing trip in Oregon. That is why we would like to take a minute to introduce ourselves and the other excellent guides that we work with. Over the last few years Iwe have had the opportunity to meet and work with a few guides who share our ideas about what a guided trip should entail. We all share a love of guiding (not just fishing), a diverse set of techniques and the knowledge of when to apply them, and a deep understanding of the waters that we fish. Knowing where to find fish is only half of being a good guide, keeping the trip fun and entertaining while you do it is equally important. When you book a trip with Castaway Guide Service you can rest assured that you have booked with a guide who will make your day a success.

Hello my name is Adam McNamara and I am the owner of Castaway Guide Service. I started my business about 8 years ago to share my love of fishing with others. As a full time guide it is my privilege to look forward to going to work every day to do something that I love. I have been an avid outdoors person all my life and grew up hunting, hiking, and fishing in many amazing places in this great state and many others. However more than anything else I am and always will be a fishing junkie, as a toddler of about two my parents had to lock the sliding glass door of our house to keep me from wandering down to the Tillamook River, snoopy pole in hand, to catch bullhead. As I grew a little older my attention turned to more sporting fish and my desire to catch a steelhead started bordering on an obsession. I managed to catch my first steelhead on my own when I was about ten and managed several more in the next year including one on a fly. All through grade school and high-school the Molalla was my home river and as soon as I could drive I started to take trips to the Clackamas and Tillamook area streams. I currently live in Newberg Oregon and spend my whole year guiding many of the best waters that this state has to offer; The North Coast of Oregon. See you on the river

Nathan Cornelius grew up in the small coastal community of Newport Oregon. Like the rest of us he quickly realized that he could translate his love of fishing and the outdoors into a career as a guide. Guiding has given Nate a chance to enjoy fishing in some unbelievable locations as he has spent 12 summers as a guide in some of the best waters Alaska has to offer and 4 winters experiencing some of South Americas amazing trout fishing as a guide in Chile. Approximately four years ago Nate returned home to Newport Oregon to start his own guide business fishing for Salmon, Steelhead, and Trout. After guiding together extensively, Nathan and I realized that because we share a common vision for our separate guide services we could better accomplish our goals by combining our efforts, Nathan became an official partner in Castaway guide service in 2011.
