Full And Half-Day Trips To Prime Pennsylvania Rivers And Streams.
If you say “Show me the fish” we’ll show you the fish! If you say “show me how” we’ll show you how. Our goal is to increase your overall enjoyment of being on the water. Catching more and bigger fish, better understanding fish behavior, or becoming a better fly-caster. No matter how long you’ve been fly fishing, you will leave the water with a better understanding of the art and a greater appreciation of the experience.

"Thank You Joe for loving fly fishing and sharing that passion and knowledge with me! Your enthusiasm and dedication to guiding me from peaked interest with zero experience to hooking an actual fish, multiple actually, was nothing short of perfect. At the end of the day I felt accomplished and excited to try it again. It was a wonderful day of fishing, laughing and learning! I look forward to joining you on the water again soon. Forever grateful, tight lines my new friend!"

“You are the river Yoda, Joe! What a great day and money well spent! Those were some tough fish. It would’ve taken me quite a while to dial into them without you. Thanks for putting up with this old dog that needed to learn a few new tricks”
Roland E. Guided Trip Experience
“I think your advice is right on the money and you are an amazing teacher! I am in the process of reading Pennsylvania Hatches by Meck and Weamer and a lot of things you mentioned begin to make sense. I will start practicing casting in the backyard. Next year we have to start hitting water again!”

This was the start of many future father/son trips, thank you for making it possible. Your love for fly fishing shows and is contagious!”
