Bug Slingin’ Guide Service

Bug Slingin’ Guide Service runs angling trips out of Lincoln Plantation and offers to show you what the local fishery is all about.

Capt. Isaah will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. He specializes in fly fishing, all to get you on that bite. This involves 4 to 8-hour trips, mainly fishing for Brook Trout, Brown Trout, Bass, Rainbow Trout, and Salmon depending on the season and conditions on the day.

You’ll be wading or fishing from a 13’ Coleman canoe with enough room for up to 2 anglers at any single time.

Fly fishing gear is included in the price of your trip, but you’re more than welcome to bring your own. Please make sure to buy a valid fishing license ahead of time.

Bait isn’t included in the trip price, so make sure to check with the captain what your options are before the trip.

Catch-and-release is encouraged.

There will be free snacks and drinks on your trip, but you’re always welcome to pack your own drinks and snacks should you want to.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Bug Slingin’ Guide Service.
