Jim Berl: McKenzie / Deschutes Rivers
For 22 years Jim has guided his friends and clients on Oregon's Deschutes and McKenzie Rivers from his home in McKenzie Bridge. Jim is an expert oarsman, taking his 16-foot Koffler drift boat where few anglers venture: the McKenzie's pristine upper reaches. He also specializes in overnight camp trips for trout and steelhead on the Deschutes River.
Jim's motto is "quality over quantity," and this shows in his careful attention to detail. His skill and focus, along with Jim's passion for recreation of all kinds ensure anglers a trip they won't soon forget.
Jim created Adventures in Fly Fishing in 1985.
