I've been fly fishing for over 25 years, driven purely by the joy, challenge, and connection to nature that the sport brings. For the past decade, I've had the privilege of guiding others on the water, sharing my knowledge and passion along the way. As a fully licensed guide with experience in both freshwater and saltwater environments, I tailor each trip to match your skill level and interests, whether you're chasing trout in cold mountain streams or casting for bass and sunfish in warmer, slower waters.
The region offers a rich variety of game fish, including Rainbow, Brown, and Brook Trout, with Sunfish and Smallmouth Bass found in other select locations. This is a walk-and-wade experience, so be prepared to cover some ground by foot as we explore productive stretches of water. You'll need to bring your own waders and wading boots, and I recommend contacting me in advance so I can help you prepare with details on what to expect.
Please ensure that everyone in your group purchases a valid local fishing license ahead of time. With the right preparation and mindset, this guided fly fishing trip can be a truly memorable and rewarding adventure.

Stuart was patient, courteous and very knowledgable about all aspects of fishing. My wife and I booked this adventure as part of our anniversary trip. We have experience fishing but never fly fishing. He was patient with us, explained how to use the equipment well, and spent time teaching us all the techniques. He treated us with respect and made sure my wife feel very comfortable and safe when treking the back country. I would highly recommend Stuart for all experience levels as his knowledge is extensive. We didn’t catch anything but that was more due to our inexperience with fly fishing and not due to his knowledge. Highly recommend his for anyone wanting to get out and fish.
Michael it was absolute pleasure having you and your wife out and celebrating your anniversary and Father’s Day all in one with you. We definitely need to do that backcountry camping trip that we were talking about.  cheers Stuart
We had a great time with Stu on Sunday. He was patient with us, and took his time teaching us different ways to cast out depending on the terrain. We shared lots of laughs throughout our time together. He is a highly skilled fly fisherman and shared his knowledge with us. We highly recommend him as a guide and teacher. Thanks Stu!!
thank you sir, we guys were incredible and hope to fish with you again

I've been fly fishing for 25 years with 15 years of experience along the stunning river's and backcountry of Tennessee. Using fly fishing, and other techniques, you'll have a chance to catch Brook Trout, Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout. The only way to learn is to join us on the water. I only use Orvis gear and a fully licensed guide for 10 years
