Jack Trout Fly Fishing
Mt Shasta, California
Jack Trout Fly Fishing is a guide outfit run by Jack Trout from a home base at 209 Pony Trail, Mt Shasta, California, which answers both a local shop line and a separate world-wide cell number for clients calling from abroad. The operation dates its Burney-area guiding to 1994 and fields experienced guides rather than a single operator. Its wider destination list runs to Baum Lake, the McCloud, the Fall River, the Upper and Lower Sacramento, the Trinity, the Klamath, the Smith, the Chetco and the Rogue, so northern California and southern Oregon are both covered from one roster, and hosted international travel is advertised alongside the domestic days. The business also rents a private-access house at Cassel, California, at $750 for a three-night minimum and $166 a night after that, with a $75 cleaning fee and a $250 security deposit.
