Brianna Bruce
Brianna Bruce
My name is Brianna Bruce, and I'll be your guide. Born and raised in Washington State, I've been fishing my entire life, and running a boat since I could reach the steering wheel. Fishing is my passion and I have dedicated my life to learning the waters of Washington State and the fish that swim in them.
My goal is to give you the best time on the water possible, and make sure your trip is full of memories that will last a lifetime. My philosophy in my guiding is to make it as comfortable and fun as possible for you. I like to customize my trips to the people in the boat, and want to know what you hope for in your day on the water. I will do my best to make that happen! If the fishing is slow, or you want a change of pace, we can go sight seeing or change tactics. I gauge my success on your enjoyment on the trip, not how many fish I've caught in a season, and I get just as much enjoyment watching and helping you catch your first (or hundredth) fish as I do catching them myself.
I will also always give you an honest gauge of the fishing. I will not tell you how great the fishing is just to get you on my boat. I want you to know what to expect. However, it is always fishing!
I am fully licensed with the United States Coast Guard, Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife, and First/Aid and CPR trained and certified.

The Big Boat
In the winter of 2024 we got the bittersweet opportiunity to add my good friend Sam Baird's boat to the Livin' Life Adventures fleet. I spend many hours in this boat with Sam, and even more fishing circles around eachother, and I am honored to continue it's legacy on the water. The Raptor is an awesome fishing platform, with plenty of space for up to 6 people to fish comfortably. Just like the North River opened up more fisheries for us, the Raptor is opening up even more, and theres very few waters in Washington we can't fish now, including the saltwater! I'm so excited about the extra room and increased saftey it offers my clients and I. This boat is totally a decked out fishing machine, and we'll proudly be running it in Sam's memory!
The Raptor is equppied with a 2019 200hp Mercury and 9.9hp Mercury kicker, super comfy Willie Boat seats, custom Pro Angler Products rod stations, downriggers, Garmin fish finder, bow mount trolling motor and more!

In the spring of 2021 we got the opportunity to add this amazing custom 23' North River Scout to the Livin' Life Adventures family! We've known this boat and it's previous owner for many years, and are really excited about the opportunity to call it ours! This new bigger boat has opened up a lot more fisheries for us, that we are excited to share with our customers. As well as having the extra space for added comfort and the ability to take up to 6 customers on a fun day of fishing.
The North River is equppied with a 225hp Yamaha Jet and 9.9hp Yamaha kicker, Bently seats, Lowrance fish finder, Folbe rod holders, Fisheng products, and Cannon downriggers.

Depending on the season, location, and water levels we also have a 18.5' Willie Predator to fish out of. Livin' Life Adventures orginal ride! We love this little boat and it has seen many waters of Washington State, and many happy customers!
It's powered by a 150hp Yamaha ProV Jet for running shallow rivers and an 8hp Yamaha kicker for trolling and side drifting.
We have a few different seating arrangments for this boat to make it fit the fishery and customers best.
We love using our Folbe rod holders, Pelican Coolers, Lowrance electronics and Cannon downriggers.
