Brett Basim - Associate Guide
Ridge to River Outdoors is proud to be associated with full time professional guide, Brett Basim.
"I have fished with Brett countless times and worked with him fishing large groups of anglers. Aside from his extensive fishing knowledge, the thing that impresses me the most is his easy going demeanor. He is really good with clients. He is informative and patient with new and experienced anglers alike." Doug Saint-Denis
"My Grandpa was a big game hunting guide and outfitter. As a small boy I would spend lots of time with my Grandpa, hunting and fishing in Eastern Oregon. The outdoor lifestyle has always been a part of my family and I want to share that with clients.
It is exciting for me to see clients set the hook on a nice fish. I enjoy spending the extra time checking out the river and figuring out what the fish are doing, whether it is steelhead, salmon or sturgeon. I believe this allows me to provide a better experience for the angler."
