Fly Shops and Guides / Know your guide!
Last post by Woolly Bugger - September 05, 2007, 16:42:10 PM
Each state has its own sets of requirements for guide licenses. Some are basic and others more comprehensive.

Guides that offer services in the U.S. National Forest and Great Smoky Mountains National Park require special permits.

The National Forests in North Carolina website has a listing of outfitter guides, including fishing, that are under permit with the National Forests in North Carolina.  I have provided the link below.

For the Great Smoky Mountains National Park a link to "Commercial Use Authorizations listed by type of service" is available at the bottom of the page at http://www.nps.gov/grsm/parkmgmt/businesswithpark.htm
Fishing Guides are listed here: http://www.nps.gov/grsm/parkmgmt/upload/CUAs%20Type-of-service.pdf

I live in the greater Bangor area with my supportive wife and two wonderful boys. I have lived and fished here all my life.

(My family would say I bring this obsession for fishing to a whole new level...)

I have been fly fishing for 10 years and I have stalked fish all over the state of Maine and beyond.

I highly enjoy guiding. My goal is to take my clients on fly fishing trips to experience some of the best fishing encounters they've ever had. Any angler can enjoy this journey. Those new to fly fishing will benefit from lessons in the techniques and proper skills needed. Experienced anglers will be given the right flies and be put onto fish as soon as possible.


A variety of trips are offered through the FISH STALKER. I try to meet all the needs of my clients and provide a day of fish, Maine scenery and great times. Whether we will be wading in rivers or fishing from the comforts of my Bass boat, fly fishers can relax and enjoy their excursion.

More challenging trips are also offered through hikes into remote ponds. Here we will be stalking for Brook Trout. These trips are overnight stays that include the added experience of camping. I also will travel to your home to teach you how to fly fish or act as your guide and spend a day taking you to several rivers showing around the areas you will be fishing.

Join me for your next fly fishing adventure!

You can't go wrong with either one of them. I have been out twice with Sara and twice with Brian and have learned something new every time.

I've fished with Sarah a couple of times. She is a TRUE professional and definately knows her business! Going with her is like being the lead in a game of follow the leader. That woman see's birds busting that normal folks don't until they're on top of 'em! She knows how to release gulls efficiently too!
