About

Jamie Lusch | Owner and Operator of Lusch Outdoors

I’m a true Oregon native, born and raised, with fishing in my DNA. Growing up in a family of anglers, I was immersed in Oregon’s waters from a young age, inheriting a wealth of knowledge passed down through generations and learning from some of Oregon’s legendary fishing guides.

For the past 20 years, I’ve focused on the Upper and Middle Rogue River, guiding countless anglers to memorable catches. Specializing in salmon and steelhead, I use a variety of techniques tailored to each client’s preferences—whether it’s drift fishing, fly fishing, or another style, I ensure each trip aligns with your goals and comfort level.

As a guide, my aim isn’t just to help you catch fish but to ensure you leave with lasting memories and a deeper connection to the Rogue River. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or new to the sport, I strive to create a relaxed, fun, and personalized experience.

Outside of guiding, I’ve also worked as a photojournalist in the Rogue Valley for the past 20 years, giving me an intimate understanding of the local landscape and waters—an experience that enhances my ability to provide an exceptional day on the river.

The Rogue River is my home, and I cherish every opportunity to share its beauty and the thrill of fishing with those who love the sport as much as I do.
