“Joe was a great down to earth guy, was willing to go anywhere we wanted and listen to what we wanted to do. We are new to fly fishing and just wanted to catch fish. We ended up catching over 20 bass, and 1 pickerel. It was a fun day and we improved our confidence in landing fish with a fly rod.”

“I spent 2 full days with Joe on the Kennebago River and had the most productive experience. Joe’s knowledge as a Maine Guide and the Kennebago River is outstanding! Joe is a great person to spend a day fishing with and his location & fly selection was the reason I landed 8 landlocked salmon in 2 days. Book with Joe for a great Maine experience!”
