Guided outdoor fishing experiences in the Pacific Northwest Targeting Salmon, Steelhead, Sturgeon and featuring Trophy Walleye trips on the Columbia River.
Hi, I’m Phil Mattson (aka Wildman).
I began fishing with my dad when I was three years old. I know how to teach people with absolutely no fishing experience how to fish. I can take the most experienced fishermen and teach them new techniques elevating their game to the next level. If catching big trophy walleye is your thing, I am your guide! No matter what your skill level I will make sure you have a great day on the water. Fun will always be had by all!
I am first aid and CPR certified.
I am licensed by the Oregon State Marine Board.

Fun Facts
I am a contributing writer to Salmon Trout and Steelheader Magazine. I wrote the first featured walleye article ever for Salmon Trout and Steelheader.
I would rather net your fish than catch my own.
My biggest fishing goal, to catch a 20 pound walleye.
“Phil is such a good human and fishing guide. You’ll be in great hands.”
