UTAH FLY FISHING GUIDES
Our fly fishing guides are some of the friendliest, hardest working and most patient trout fanatics you'll ever meet. We know
these rivers and their inhabitants like no one else. With a profound understanding of both the fish and, sometimes as
importantly, the fisherman, one of our strongest skills is deciphering the code to consistently hooking up with more and
larger fish. We also strive to set a new (or is it old?) standard in stream-side etiquette and live by a catch-and-release, totally
barb-less, leave no trace ethic. Come and see why our guides are liked by locals and have a reputation for being some of the
best in the west!

Joe Mitchell is one of the area's most sought after
guides. He learned to fly fish as a young boy living in
Montana over 25 years ago and has been chasing down
trout with his hand tied flies ever since. He considers
the first ten years of his life as having been wasted on
worms and spinners. His uncanny ability to find big fish
can partly be explained by the fact that he's been
studying them for most of his life. It's no wonder he
chose the guiding life and is considered by many to be a
master of his trade.

Joe is also a proud member of Solitude Fly Company's
design team and some of his fly patterns are quickly
becoming North American standards. You may already
have some of his bugs in your own collections. Joe is the
creator of the increasingly popular series of split case
nymphs as well as many other original trout slayers. A
true technician, no matter what they might be eating, he's
always got at least a half-dozen flies in just the right
stages, sizes, and colors to match. When you see the size
of some of these trout we're up against, you'll understand
why his fly patterns work so well. They have to.

Steve Burt is the real deal. Take one look at his
gnarly hands and you'll instantly know what we
mean. We don't know of a harder working, more
effective, and entertaining guy to fish with. If you're
lucky enough to find yourself in his boat, you've
automatically doubled your chances. He'll have you
on to that next fish before you know it, even if it is on
the other side of the river and maybe just a little bit
back upstream. Besides having unrivaled
knowledge and a vast resource of experience to
draw from, Steve is an intuitive guide that just flat
out knows trout, no matter where they swim. Over
the years he's guided throughout the mountain west
on the rivers of Idaho, Montana and Wyoming and
has spent the past ten guiding the trophy waters of
Utah and southwestern Wyoming. In the winter,
Steve heads to the southern hemisphere to guide
the rivers and lakes of Patagonian Chile's 11th
region for Los Torreones Lodge. Visit

these yet untapped waters with Steve in one of the
world's most fantastic landscapes.

Dano Bolton is everybody's favorite guy to fish with, especially
ours. You may lose count of how many fish you catch with him,
but you'll never forget how much you learned and how much fun
you had doing it. Dano grew up fishing the fabled trout streams
in his home state of Pennsylvania, then moved to Park City in
1993. He's been guiding in Utah for the past ten years now and is
easily one of the most recognized and liked guides in the region.
Few people know trout like Dano does, and he's one of the most
boss fly tiers in the business. When he's not guiding wading
anglers on the Provo River and other area streams with us, Dano
is rowing them down the world famous Green River for Old Moe
Guide Service in Dutch John, Utah. His favorite thing yet is
throwing dry flies out of the boat that are so big you could see
them from all the way back at your office. Visit
www.oldmoeguideservice.com for the opportunity to float one of
the greatest dry fly rivers on the planet with one of it's greatest
guides.

When you see all the pictures of Jeff Fleig holding up all
those huge fish, realize that he is 6'7" and tends to make
things look small. Those are REALLY huge fish to mere
mortals like the rest of us. It's pretty obvious that he's
been living his life right. Jeff started fishing as a child in
the Sierra Nevada and Northern Nevada Ranges around
Reno. He fed his growing interest in trout mostly on the
Truckee River and nearby Lake Tahoe and Pyramid Lake.
After going to college in southern California, he
eventually moved to Utah in 1993 and pursued fly fishing
with abandon, both here and in Montana as well. Going
into his 8th year as a professional fly fishing guide, Jeff is
not only a very experienced and skilled expert, but a
master communicator as well. As well as guiding, Jeff
has been a professional Disc Jockey for 18 years and his
company, High Mountain Music, can help make your
party, wedding, birthday, or corporate event a
memorable one for everyone involved. Visit

JEFF FLEIG

To say that Trevor Howard has fly fishing in his blood
would be a serious understatement. The truth is, he's
got a real legends of fly fishing pedigree. The only third
generation fly fishing guide in the state (that we know of),
becoming a professional guide was just as natural for
him as his ability to catch fish is. You know someone is
great at what they do when they make it look so easy.
You should see what a difference a generous dose of
talent makes, too. His hard work and love for his job
always pay off on the river and his client's loyalty is
testament to that. We think you should jump on the
opportunity to fish with Trevor while you still have the
chance to book him.
