Fly fishing experience - 15 plus years.

Fly Casting Instructor - 10 years.

Fly Shop retail experience - 11 years at Sportsmans Finest in Bee Cave, Tx.

Experienced fly tyer - 11 years

Freshwater Guide for 3 years in the Texas Hill country.

I do wading trips from private property on the Llano River. There is minimal to no traffic coming through the river. Sharing my experience and passion with other fellow fly fishers puts a smile on my face knowing that I have given them the best experience on the water! Over the years, I have met many clients, customers and friends who I instructed. I watched them grow and evolve in their fly fishing journey and knowing that I had a part of that is a win! I have done my job!

How did you get started guiding?
WHILE EMPLOYED BY SPORTSMANS FINEST, IN BEE CAVES, TX, I WORKED IN THE FLY SHOP FOR 11 YEARS. ALONG WITH THE RETAIL END OF MY CAREER, I WAS A FLY CASTING INSTRUCTOR. I HAD SO MANY OF MY DEVOTED CUSTOMERS REQUEST ME TO TAKE THEM FISHING! AT THAT TIME, I DECIDED TO PURSUE GUIDING! NOT ONLY TO PUT MY CLIENTS ON FISH BUT TO TEACH THE VARIOUS ASPECTS OF FISHING TACTICS AND ENJOY THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE!
What makes you different from other guides?
I WOULD SAY THAT I BRING TO THE TABLE A DESIRE TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE, KNOWLEDGE AND TALENT TO MY CLIENTS. MOST OF ALL, TO HELP FELLOW FLY FISHERS TO ENJOY THE SPORT AND EXPERIENCE THE PURE JOY OF IT ALL! IT IS MORE THAN GETTING PAID FOR GUIDIING. IT IS IMPORTANT TO HELP OTHERS ENJOY FLY FISHING AND GIVE THEM SKILLS THEY CAN TAKE WITH THEM IN THEIR JOURNEY!

About Your Trip

Since the trip will be wading only, the distance of the trip will be as far up/down the river you desire to go. We can also target a certain species. The Llano River has multiple species of fish! That is the beauty of the Llano River!

Meals are not provided. However, please bring any snacks you wish to. Please bring plenty of water for hydration. If you forget, I always have extra. I also bring
extra snacks in case you don't have any.

If you already have fly rods, please bring them with you (5-7 wt.). If you like to catch big fish, it is recommended that you bring a bigger rod. I always fish with my 7 weight as I seem to run into big fish (not always but I use it just in case). If you need equipment, I can supply it for you!

My trips will be tailored to your wishes! We will be structure fishing (both top & bottom fishing). Instruction is also provided. If you need help with casting, I will help you out! On our trip, you will receive a lot of personal, caring touches to the experience! I will tailor your trip based upon your personal needs! My desire is to provide you with an awesome experience on the water!
