Guide Landon Lipke holding a trophy brown trout than William Reinecke lured into the net. If you want to find the big brown trout on the Davidson River Private Water, then book Landon on a half day trip bc he wont tell anyone where they are otherwise……………….not even Walker and Bill !

Guide Landon Lipke runs a winter clinic on the Davidson River showing us just how to catch fish even on the coldest days of the year. With temps just above freezing, Landons clients brave the chilly water and have some great catches to show for their hard work.

On June 13th, Jeff Turner and his son, Taylor, began a nation wide quest to fish 50 states in 50 days in hopes that their adventure will inspire others to realize their dreams for adventure and connect with family and others. This amazining journey will span 15,000 miles by land, 6,000 miles by air, and 500 miles by water.

Fourtunately for Davidson River Outfitters, the mighty Davidson River was on their list, and we were excited to be a part of their journey. Jeff and Taylor arrived at the shop on June 16th to fish with DRO guide Landon Lipke. After a few minutes of instructions, the guys geared up and were catching good numbers of fish throughout the day. Both rainbows and some of our larger brook trout provided some great video for the Turner’s website. With nonstop action, the day was over before they knew it. Big smiles and tired bodies were a true testimate that a day on the  Davidson River was the inspiration they had been looking for. For all of us at Davidson River Outfitters, we hope the trip continues to be a success.
