Let me show you my home waters.
Come experience the Eastern Sierra on the fly. From our cold trout streams and stillwaters, to the warm ponds and sloughs of the Owens Valley. No matter your age, skill level or what school of fly fishing you come from, we offer trips for ALL anglers.
Our approach
I was very lucky, I was born in Bishop, CA. and got to grow up with the Eastern Sierra as my backyard. I learned how to swim in the Owens River and caught my first fish at Crowley Lake. We live in one of the most spectacular places in the world, with some of the greatest trout, bass and carp fishing in the country. I’ve spent my life fishing the warm and cold waters along the 395 corridor from Lone Pine to the Nevada border. Now, I am thankful and thrilled to do what I love as a licensed, bonded, catch and release fly-fishing guide.
In 2010 I started Sierra Mountain Trout Guide Service to share my home waters and love of fly fishing with others. We are a mom-and-pop business who believe fly-fishing is for everybody and anybody can fly-fish, no matter age, experience, ability or disability. We are not celebrities, or gurus, but knowledgable, patient teachers who are not afraid to give 110% to make the day all about you. We’ll get to know you to find what you want and what works for you. We realize everyone learns at their own pace and being a drill seargent doesn’t speed up the process, we’ll urge you to leave your comfort zone but never force it. Our devotion and passion for fly-fishing shines through in evrything we do.
They say “Do what you love and you will never work a day in your life”. Well, I haven’t worked in 15 years!!

We don’t build a client base, we make friends.
Our clients come back year after year and many we have gotten to know very well. We treat our fishing buddies like family and look forward to seeing them each year. Fishing with us is like revisiting an old friend.
Serving Inyo, Mono and Alpine Counties
We cover a vast expanse of the Eastern Sierra. Depending on time of year our ventures can take us anywhere along the 395 corridor from Lone Pine to Lake Topaz California.
