Rates, Availability and Booking INFO

All pricing below is for one or two people. 

More than two in your group? We can discuss some options! 

My 2024 season will be  April 8th through October 15. 

DUSK AND DAWN PACKAGE  

Fishing is always better later in the day and earlier in the morning. The "DUSK and DAWN" package is our most popular option, putting us in the streams when the fish are most active. We will fish the late afternoon until dusk on day one and the earlier half of the day on day two. It also makes for the perfect one-night Driftless getaway any time of year. 

(Monday - Thursday) $400

(Friday, Saturday, Sunday) $475

FULL DAY of DRIFTLESS FUN 

Eight to nine hours of Driftless fly fishing in multiple streams with a break for the included park or streamside meal. Either early morning through later afternoon or mid-day through twilight options are available. 

(Monday - Thursday) - $400

(Friday, Saturday, Sunday) - $475

TWO FULL DAYS  

Same as a full day but twice as much Driftless fun! 

$725

THREE, FOUR DAYS OR MORE!

WINTER 2023/2024

I do a "soft" close each year between November 1 and the end of January. But, if there is a streak of good weather, I am happy to work with someone in NE Iowa before January 6 or between then and the end of January in the Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa Driftless streams I frequent after they reopen. I will be fully shut down and unavailable for February and March 2024.
