We offer fully guided trips for Lake Erie tributary steelhead. Our guides have over 25 years of combined experience on the Erie tributaries. Our goal is eliminate all of the guesswork in order to ensure you an enjoyable trip whether you are a novice or experienced fly fisherman.

Trips consist of 8 hours of actual fishing time on the water. We specialize mainly in the New York and Pennsylvania tributaries. Rod and reel outfits are available, but you can also bring your own equipment.

In addition you will also need to bring proper wading apparel (chest high waders), a PA or NY license, and a sack lunch if desired.

Whether you're just getting into the sport of fly fishing, or maybe you can teach us a few things, we recommend that you make sure you have all the proper equipment and supplies you'll need before we head out for your trip.

Whether you've fished the Erie tributaries or not, our expert guiding services will ensure you have the best possible steelhead fly fishing experience. There are good tributaries and not so good tributaries. On top of that, each tributary has "hot spots" and spots where fishing is a waste of time, sometimes even dangerous. Our guides know the best areas to fish, and more importantly, the areas to avoid. The poor fellow in the picture to the right thought he could do it on his own. He was wrong.
