What People Are Saying
“First time fly fishing and our guide made it incredible. Caught my first wild brook trout in a beautiful mountain stream after just an hour of instruction. Guide knew exactly where to go and was patient teaching me to cast. Already planning our next trip for smallmouth on the James.”
“We booked a full-day trip for our anniversary and it exceeded expectations. Our guide took us to three different streams, adjusting based on conditions. Tom landed a 12-inch brook trout that the guide said was the best fish he'd seen that week. The hike to the high-elevation stream was worth every step. Highly recommend.”
“As someone who fly fishes out West regularly, I was curious about Virginia smallmouth and wasn't disappointed. Guide put me on aggressive 14-16 inch fish in the James River all morning. Topwater poppers at dusk was absolutely electric. Different from trout fishing but just as addictive. Great local knowledge and professional operation.”
