Booked a 4 hour on the water intermediate fly fishing lesson and went out with Beau and had an incredible experience! He created a great learning environment and maximized the time we had on the water. I really appreciated him tailoring the experience to my needs and I would HIGHLY recommend lessons or a trip with the crew from Natives. A few highlights for me would be nailing down how to read and plan my approach to the stream as well as several ways to refine presentation with a few different fly fishing techniques.

Tha absolutely best guided fishing trips of my 81 year life booked through Natives flies shop. After several discussions with a couple different people I was lucky enough to get open dates before the tourist season. Our guide Nat Fredrick turned out to be a fantastic, a patient soft spoke man from the area we fished. I had requested fishing only for native fish and we filled that quite easily. Not only did we catch a lot of fish Nat taught my son and i a couple new things every day. I look forward to my next fishing trip in WV booked through Natives fly shop.

Had two excellent floats in July, one with Beau and the other with Nate. Both excellent guides that provided us ample opportunity to land numerous fish as well as providing tips that increased our success. Beau was also extremely knowledgeable and helpful with my fly rod and reel upgrade. Support your local fly shop, this is a great one! Looking forward to our next trip this month.
