Reid Baker Owner & Guide Manager for Freestone Outfitters Presents Guides, Not Gods: Ensuring a Quality and Professional Guided Experience
Without a doubt, hiring a quality, professional fly fishing guide is one of the best ways to dramatically improve your angling skills. Certified Guides can give beginning anglers a start in the right direction of the lifelong sport of fly fishing, or hone the skills of even the most advanced angler who has spent their whole life on the water. A good guide can show us all new ways to look at fishing and give us insights that websites, books, magazines and videos could never provide. That being said, what makes a good guide and how do I find one? How can I make sure I get the best guide possible? Are they even legally licensed to be a commercial guide?
