About Your Guide

Scott M.

Independent Guide 41 years of exp.

Scott has been fly fishing the Kings River and th waters around the Sequoia National Forest for over 20 years! He is professional guide specializing in fly fishing the Kings River and his deep local knowledge of the area is unequaled. Scott is a graduate of the Clearwater Guide School in Northern California living and working full time at Hume Lake Christian Camps.

The Kings River is Scott's favorite freestone river absolutely full of Rainbow and Brown Trout and around every bend is a spectacular view to take in.

Scott is a great teacher and guide for any skill level. It doesn't matter if you're new to fly fishing and want to learn the sport, or you're already comfortable with your skill, Scott loves sharing his passion for fly fishing with first timers or talking shop about the local bugs and how to fish them with the experts.

Any day on the river with Scott is a memorable experience full of fun, laughter, and positivity! Oh, and lots of fish!

Fantastic guide. Couldn't recommend more. Took the time to show us the art of fly fishing and the South Fork of the King's River.

You won't go wrong with Scott!
