About Ed - Washington Flyfishing and River Outings

My name is Ed Megill. I am a full service, full time Washington flyfishing  and whitewater outfitter.  When I started Cascades Expeditions, my thought was "I absolutely have to stay on the river". Since that point, I have been fortunate enough to meet some amazing people, accumulate a few river miles and have one of the most epic experiences of my life.
 
I was shown the water at an early age and never wanted to leave. Living in the Pacific Northwest, there is an endless supply of such and it would take an immense amount of time to see even a fraction of it. All I can say is, I'm doing my best. The best part is, we’re almost always having a great time and usually chasing these crazy fish or running nutty whitewater.

I have been lucky enough to fish and boat in some of the most beautiful places in the world...the Tuamotu Archipelegos/French Polynesia, Bahamas, Yucatan Peninsula, Gulf of Mexico, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Montana to British Columbia…and, of course, Washington.

Spending time on the waters of the Pacific Northwest is true love. The diversity and complexity of our Washington ecosystems, the variety of wildlife and the life histories of our anadromous fish is simply fascinating.

About Us - and About Fly Fishing in Washington

I work in close association with a few guides in Washington.

Cascades Expeditions, LLC is a network of dedicated, conservation-minded flyfishing and whitewater outfitters and guides. If we are not guiding, you’ll likely find us fly fishing in Washington or running whitewater on the rivers we guide. This affords us the opportunity to have up-to-date knowledge about many of our Pacific Northwest rivers.

Most individuals don’t have the opportunity to get out as much as we do; so, no matter what we're doing, we want your outing to be a super special experience. All of us, at Cascades Expeditions, will endeavor to make your trip educational, exciting and fun whether we're chasing our finned friends or out viewing a few eagles on the Skagit river on a snowy winter day.

A variety of styles of outings are available to accommodate most everyone’s wants and needs. Services range from introductory flycasting lessons, guided flyfishing day trips, rowing lessons, flatwater eco-tours to full service, multi-day expedition style outings completely tailored to your adventurous side.

We will always work hard to show you the very best time. There is great attention to detail and we always eat well on the river.

We look forward to having you out.
Freedom!
