A wade trip to fly fish for trout is what most people relate to when they think of fly fishing. In addition to planning your strategy to position yourself for the very best drift in the "right" water, all of the elements of fly fishing come into play -- the wind, the effect of varying currents, line mending, and selecting the right fly for the particular situation or hatch. The nuances of such situations is what makes fly fishing an exciting and oftentimes challenging sport. It's really not just about long, beautiful casts though for some this is the ultimate experience. It's more about enjoyment and immersing yourself, for a brief period of time, in all there is to feel and sense in this sport we call fly fishing.

Payment for guide services is either by cash or check. See rates on the home page.

About Guided Trips and Equipment (What to Bring)

The client must furnish all of their own equipment including boots, chest waders, a wading belt, heavy socks, polarized sunglasses, pair of nippers & forceps, and a hat if desired. Wear comfortable clothing that matches the weather conditions and include a rain jacket if the weather looks inclement. The use of a wading staff is recommended for safety purposes but is not always necessary. A Georgia Trout Fishing license is required. Lastly, for stress relief, bring along a sense of humor.

The ideal fly rod is 8 1/2 - 9 feet long, 5 or 6 weight. Suggested leaders are 7 1/2 to 9 feet long, 1X - 4X tippet size. Floating lines are generally used 100% of the time. Extra tippet material should range from 2X - 6X. Flies can be provided if desired at an additional cost.

For Full Day wade trips, pack a lunch to bring with you if desired. Drinks will be furnished by your guide.
