What is the weather generally like in your area?
Our Appalachian Mountains are considered a Temperate Rain Forest so be prepared for potential wet weather during the week.
Summer (April-August) Lows can be 30F–40F. Highs will be around 60F-85F
Winter (Nov-March) Be prepared for cold, can get into negatives with wind chill. Highs can get into the 40F–50F
Fall (Sept-Nov) Can get cold, lows from 20F-30F. Highs will be around 40F-70F
What do I wear?
We always suggest that you pack for the coldest day on your trip and layer appropriately for each day based on regional temperatures.
Can I bring my own equipment?
Of course! We highly encourage that you bring your own equipment... unless it is difficult or inconvenient to bring. We are happy to provide Orvis waders and fishing equipment for your trip at no extra cost to you, but are also as equally happy to show you how to use your own equipment as well.
How should I tip?
With cash... but seriously, We only encourage you to tip your guide (in any situation) if they have gone above and beyond your expectations. Especially if you want them to answer your phone call the next time you want to fish ;)
