| As the popularity of fly fishing grows, it seems that everyone with a couple years experience is suddenly a "Guide". SILVER DOCTOR FLY FISHING is featured in the books Great Lakes Steelhead-a Guided Tour for Fly Anglers, Best Streams for Great Lakes Steelhead, and Fly Fishing for Great Lakes Steelhead-an advanced look at an emerging fishery. I am an FFI Certified Casting Instructor, and have been a demonstration tyer at numerous conclaves, and also conducted the first ever speycasting workshop at an International FFF Conclave,(1997-Grand Rapids,MI). |
| The key to learning how to fly fish is fishing with the right guide. I believe that my role as a guide is not to guarantee that my clients catch lots of fish, but rather that my clients will learn what it takes to fish effectively. Regardless of weather, water conditions, or hatches, I will make sure your day on the river is enjoyable! |

| I'm very happy to announce that I have joined the Scott Rod Company Pro Staff. Working with a top end company that understands rod design for everything from our intimate Driftless creeks, through salt water monsters, & everything in between is exciting. |

| With seventy years of fly fishing experience and forty + years as a licensed guide, Silver Doctor Fly Fishing offers guiding and instruction, whatever the level of your experience or age. Everything from basic entomology, knots, and small stream tactics, through the tricks of speycasting can be learned from an FFI Certified Casting Instructor in a professional, courteous setting. |
| Due to covid, I can no longer provide lunches, but will have soft drinks Some specialized loaner tackle is available, (speyfishing gear,etc.), but you must have basic tackle. Catch and release is encouraged. |
| If the date that you want is already booked, Silver Doctor Fly Fishing will be glad to recommend another guide service that shares my philosophy of teaching, so that you will be able to continue fishing sucessfully. |
