Mike Canady

Senior Guide

Email:
mike@redsflyshop.com

Mike has been a staple at Red's for the past few seasons and is one of our more senior guides, in fact, over the past few years there aren’t too many that have put in as many hours on the oars as Mike has.  He originally started in the fly shop for us a few years back and knows every facet of the operations at Red's.  From boat rentals, tent camps, shuttles, gear, fly selection, etc.  He put in many long hours behind the counter which helped teach him the ropes and gave him the experience needed to dive into the guide game head first.  This combined with Saint-like patience makes him both a "go-to" guide for the pros and a wizard with beginners as well.

Fortunately for Mike, his whole family loved to fish and camp so he spent most of his summers growing up in Eastern Washington chasing anything that swam, primarily trout.  As soon as he turned 16, You would find Mike driving over to eastern Washington every chance he could to fish the Yakima river. His parents always said that if he would have put in as much effort into his school work as he did into fishing he would have been a straight A student and then some! 

Since the age of 17 Mike has been working in the fishing industry and He likes to say that he has never had a “real” job, they have always been too fun!  In 2005 Mike moved to Ellensburg and came to work for Red's right away.  He built a  beautiful log home out in the country, and is currently living out every country boy's dream!  Mike and his longtime girlfriend Jamie got married in march of 2009 and in January of 2010 They had their first child a little boy named Caiden River Canady.  When Mike is not guiding you will usually find him hanging out with his wife and his son. They enjoy camping, hiking, and fishing together as a family.
