Information

In 1980, Craig Schuhmann moved to Oregon with his family. This move was partly to accommodate his father's passion for steelhead fishing on the rivers of Oregon and Washington. When Craig was 10 years old he initiated his own passion for the sport fly fishing with his father on the Owens River in California and again on the steelhead rivers in the Columbia Basin. He has managed to keep his fly rod working ever since. Taking particular interest in trout, he has spent numerous seasons living and fishing in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. Craig brings to play his interest in the totality of the sport through fly tying, entomology, guiding, education and conservation. Under his business "Guided Waters Fly Fishing," Craig spends most of his time guiding on the Williamson and Wood rivers in Southern Oregon.

He is also an accomplished writer. In December 2006, Moon Outdoors published Craig’s first book. Titled Oregon Fishing, the book is a comprehensive fishing guide for the entire state of Oregon including coastal areas. Craig holds a Masters of Arts in Theology from the University of Portland.
