Anyone who knows Capt Josh Temple can attest to his passion for giant fish, exotic locations, sleek yachts, a stiff drink, fine cigars, and incredible fishing.  He's a modern day Zane Grey, Ernest Hemingway, and Hunter S Thompson all rolled into one.  Without question, Capt Josh has brought a renewed sense of adventure and appreciation for the great sport of fishing into many of our lives.

He's come a looooooong way from his early teenage years in the north Pacific, and guiding salmon and steelhead trips in remote locations in British Columbia.  These days, you're more oft to find Capt Josh jet-setting around the world with his A-list clientele of hollywood stars and professional sports athletes, pushing life and adventure to the limit, and often re-writing history in his wake.  His long list of accomplishments have thus far proven that it doesn't matter where you come from, and that one only needs to dream BIG in order to succeed.

His writing, photography, and vivid storytelling brings his adventures into our every day lives.  To share in one of Josh's adventures is to experience but a glimpse of what it means to live life to the fullest, push limits, and enjoy every second of adventure along the way.  A quote by one of his favorite authors, Ernest Hemingway, pretty much sums up his enthusiasm.  "Perhaps I should not have been a fisherman, but that was the thing that I was born for."  Enough said.
