Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime and join Eye On The Fly Expeditions with your guide, Brian Stephens! With over 30 years of experience fly fishing around the world, Brian has got what it takes to put you on delicious Trout. He caters to all levels of anglers, especially beginners, and he specializes in a range of fly fishing techniques in order to help you land the fish of your dreams.
Your journey will take place on a 16’ ClackaCraft drift boat, equipped with state-of-the-art fly gear, life jackets, fire extinguishers, and a first-aid kit. The boat is built with top-quality fiberglass and has a tunnel hull which makes her perfect for planing shallow waters. She accommodates 2 guests and both individuals can fish at the same time.
You’ll be exploring the Caney Fork River, one of the main tributaries of the Cumberland River, and a popular destination for Trout and Bass fishing. You’ll be mainly targeting Rainbow, Brown, and Brook Trout with a possibility of landing a Smallmouth Bass as well.
You’ll have the opportunity to try out a few different fly fishing techniques, including streamer fishing, nymph fishing, and dry fly fishing. You’ll be provided with top-tier Winston, Orvis, Sage, and Tibor gear so you don’t have to worry about renting or bringing your own tackle.
Brian will also take care of the snacks, drinks, and lunch. Just contact him a day before your trip and let him know what you’d like for him to include. All you have to do is purchase your fishing license online, arrive 30 minutes before departure, and the rest will be taken care of.
Invite the whole family and get ready for this exclusive fly fishing adventure on Caney Fork River! Your guide will put you in the right place at the right time, show you a few tricks, and have you catching fish all day long! So start planning your trip today and create lasting memories with Eye On The Fly Expeditions!

Half Day Trip (AM)
Man this was such a great trip. Captain Brian reached out to me the week of our trip. He was there bright and early with everything ready to go. He brought drinks, snacks, extra gear for me to use/try out if mine wasn’t getting it done. But boy oh boy does this man know how to get you on the fish. Right away we were landing good size rainbow and brown trout. He gave me plenty of pointers and made sure I was getting my monies worth out of this trip. I will definitely be booking with him again in the near future! I feel like a made a new good fishing friend today! Thanks Brain!

Brian picked me up at 5:30am and after a one hour drive we entered the water in a wonderful foggy morning. What a scenery When sun came out, eating the fog it was a gorgeous morning with active fishes. Water was high but very Dushanbe. We caught 3 rainbows , released them again as we continue to travel further south When you are around Nashville give Brian a shout. You can’t get a better or more experienced guide and he is a great company too Thanks Capt‘n Brian. I might be back. Siegfried

The trip was outstanding. My youngest son and I went out on Caney Fork with Brian. We were both rookies and wanted to learn how to fly fish. Brian is extremely knowledgeable and has a ton of experience. He was a great teacher and was patient with our rookie mistakes. We caught a lot of Rainbow Trout and had a blast. Brian communicated very well in preparation of the trip and searched for best places to go for the best conditions. He has many options and knows the areas to go very well. Awesome trip.

Brian made a great instructor for our first time fly fishing! I surprised my boyfriend with this trip and it went so smoothly and we learned so much. Will definitely be back

I purchased a full day trip as a surprise for my husband as a Father’s Day gift and I couldn’t be happier with that decision! From the moment I booked it, Captain Brian was in contact and answered any questions I had and offered great guidance for what to expect and what to bring, etc. Captain Brian was always very professional and cordial. My husband and son have just returned from the trip and they cannot stop talking about what an amazing experience they had! They said everything was 10 out of 10! They said they highly recommend Captain Brian! Exceptional service and experience!
