If you’ve ever felt like you’re just guessing out there… you’re not alone.

Most anglers struggle not because they aren’t trying—but because they’ve never been shown how to actually read water, choose the right fly, or make the right adjustments.

That’s where I come in.

This Isn’t Your Typical Guided Trip

Most guides row you down the river and hope you hook a fish.

I actually teach you how to catch them.

You’ll leave knowing why things worked — not just where to stand.

Whether it’s your first time holding a fly rod or you’ve been doing this for years, the goal is the same:

Catch fish
Learn skills you can use forever
Have a damn good time doing it

What People Are Saying

As a 70-year-old beginner, I was nervous about booking a guided trip… I wondered if I’d be wasting his time. Not at all.

PJ was patient, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable. He helped me understand what to do and when to do it, and I never once felt like giving up.

Between the fishing and seeing eagles, otters, and osprey, it was just an unforgettable day.”
