Brian Silvey, Owner of a year-round Oregon flyfishing guide service operated from my home in Maupin, Oregon. Having grown up on the Deschutes and Sandy Rivers, I know these waters well and can guide you on a trip you won’t soon forget.I have been involved in the Flyfishing industry in many facets.
- 23 years as a flyfishing guide along the banks of the Deschutes and Sandy Rivers.
- Hold a degree in Fisheries – Fish Biology & Fisheries Management Oregon Dept of Fish & Wildlife as a experimental biologist aid
- 28 years as a private and commercial Fly Tier
Signature tier for Idylewilde Flies
My flies have been in several Books and Magazines
- Have instructed Fly Tying and Fly casting classes
- Won the Best Of The West Fly casting contest in Seattle
5 wt rod won with 102 ft cast – 1999
- Certified as a Flyfishing casting instructor
I use both conventional fly rods and traditional two handed (spey) rods
I love my job and when I have “down time” from guiding, you can find me enjoying the river, fishing … or rock hunting … with my son and daughter, or simply enjoying the surrounding beauty of the area.
