Instruction

I am passionate about teaching fly fishing and cater to anglers of all levels. Offering personalized, unhurried sessions, I cover all aspects of the sport including fly casting, fly tying, reading the water, and understanding fish and insect behavior. Whether you’re interested in fishing for striped bass, shad, steelhead, trout, or almost any other fish, I’m here to teach you about the fly patterns, techniques, and nuances required of each species. Let’s explore the world of fly fishing together!

Guide Service

I provide fly fishing guide services on Northern California waters for striped bass, shad, steelhead, trout, largemouth bass, and smallmouth bass. A typical day is 8 hours on the water (6am-2pm or 1pm-9pm) and may include fishing from a boat, wading, or both. Half day trips are also available. Lunch, drinks, flies, and leaders are provided. Loaner rods, reels, and lines are available if needed.
