I am a full-time, year-round fishing guide in East Tennessee, based out of Johnson City. In 2018, I was working in healthcare finance consulting and living in DC. I had been there since 2011, after graduating with a degree in physics from Vanderbilt University. I worked hard to be where I was, but I was brutally unhappy with what I did for a living. I was stressed out and half-checked out when I was able to make it home to see my baby daughter before she was asleep. While my life was 'successful' on paper, it didn't amount to any form of happiness. I found fly fishing somewhat by happenstance after my stepbrother took me fishing for a few hours. I didn't catch any, got hailed on, and thunder stormed out. We broke a borrowed reel, and I was borderline hypothermic for the duration of our stumbling. I was also head over heels in love with whatever it was we just did! I fell in love with fishing because of everything surrounding the sport – the scenery, the drives, the solitude, the heart-wrenching line snaps, and knee-shaking personal bests or firsts. These days, I am excited about every day of work. I take the time to talk with clients extensively before every trip. I also spend a lot of time with my now-almost-5-year-old daughter, who loves fishing but cares very little about catching fish.

Michael Hudnall5.0VerificeretGreat experience!
Heldagstur – Trophy Bækørred • 2 voksneMy wife and both caught rainbows and browns which was great because we've never caught them before. Captain Ellis was a great guide who offered alot of varieties to fish the river. We started with conventional lures because we weren't familiar with fly fishing. The lures caught fish but after awhile we both had fly rods in our hands. One of my favorite parts was watching the browns eat the dry flies on the surface. Captain ellis worked the river great and put us in the right spots to make the cast. Would do it again ?

Heldagstur – Trophy Bækørred • 2 voksne • 1 barnEllis is an excellent guide— friendly, patient, knowledgeable. My 8 year old son and I greatly enjoyed spending seven hours on the river for him.
