The Cumberland River provides some of the best Rainbow and Brown Trout fishing in the southeastern United States . Beginning at Wolf Creek Dam, the Cumberland River supports over 75 miles of trout fishing, producing average size trout of around 14″ and many daily trophies ranging from 18″ to 20″ and larger. A trip with Ben includes 8 hours (or more) in Ben's Clackacraft drift boat fly fishing, a nice river lunch, and drinks. Casting lessons, photos, and great conversation are also, often, typical parts of a fishing day with Ben. Don't be surprised if he picks your brain about Guide Book here and there!

Full Day Wades are for 1 to 2 anglers. Most full day trips last 6 to 8 hours depending on location, time of year, or if the fishing is just too good to leave. Gear included on these trips are waders, boots, rods, reels, tippet, flies. We recommend being prepared for any and all elements due to unpredictable weather that can occur deep within the mountains. We recommend having a rain jacket, polarized glasses, and a hat. Our guides will have a nice streamside lunch to keep you fueled on your pursuit of the next fish. Your guide will also have enough drinks to keep you hydrated in the hunt for these elusive fish we are after. Full days offer the most potential, especially for the beginner wanting to learn the ways of the sport. We highly recommend it especially when fishing spring and fall months! Half Day Wade’s are 4-5 hours. Everything provided other than lunch.

Suit up in your waders, UPF and bug proof gear and come hiking along through and along the beautiful tributaries of northern Michigan. Based in the Manistee National Forest, Ash will take you to some of the most remote country chasing small to medium sized tributaries in search of wild natural reproducing trout. Casting situations are going to require anglers to have familiarity with using roll casting, switch casting, bow-n-arrow, dabbing, tight lining, and other tight water techniques. You'll get to experience the beauty of backwoods fishing while running into deer, eagles, osprey, minks, otters and other beautiful Michigan Wildlife. Ash will provide you with a homemade meal, snacks, water, coffee, tea and candy to keep your energy levels up. All equipment for these experiences will vary in equipment weights from 1-4 weight set-ups. This is back country fishing in remote sections of water. Your ability to hike and move around obstacles is critical in making the most out of this experience. Expect to hike between 3 to 10 miles depending on your fishing aspirations and goals.
