Our Mission
At Cast & Drift, we believe that fly fishing is more than just a sport it's a way to connect with nature, challenge yourself, and create lasting memories. Our mission is to provide world-class guided fishing experiences while fostering a deep appreciation for Northern California's pristine waters and the wild trout that call them home.
Whether you're taking your first cast or you're a seasoned angler looking to explore Redding's legendary waters, we're committed to making your experience unforgettable, educational, and respectful of the environment we all love.
Our Waters
Redding is the gateway to some of North America's most legendary fly fishing waters. From the famous Lower Sacramento River's year-round trout fishing to Hat Creek's technical spring creek challenges, from the Upper Sacramento's wild beauty to the Pit River's explosive runs and Baum Lake's trophy rainbows.
Our guides know these waters intimately - every riffle, pool, and undercut bank. We understand seasonal patterns, optimal fly presentations, and where the fish hold throughout the year. From freestone streams to spring creeks, tailwaters to alpine lakes, we'll match you with the perfect water for your skill level and interests.
