Our trout fishing trip with Darren was everything we wanted! Fly fishing and rainbow trout was the goal and was a complete success! Darren is extremely personable, encouraging, and knowledgeable and got us on fish within 10 minutes of getting on the water! 10/10 experience, 10/10 recommend, 10/10 would book again!

Half Day Afternoon

One of the best guides we have ever had.

VERIFIED

Darren is patient and an awesome instructor. Best attitude all day. Caught some fish and became a much more informed wet fly enthusiast. We will be using Mr Sadler from now on when fishing the Ozarks. When the local fly shop carries your flies and recommends them over their own you found the right guide.
