Kentucky is home to numerous species of fish willing and ready to take your fly! Bass, carp, musky, trout, and plenty of others inhabit over 1,900 miles of navigable waterways, tons of wadeable water, plus numerous ponds, and lakes, your opportunities to go fishing seem endless!
Many fly fishing anglers call Kentucky home, not all of us fish for trout, some grew up fishing bluegill and bass in a farm or neighborhood pond!

Fly Fishing Opportunities
Camp with the comfort of knowing a shower room is within a short drive!
Sleep in your car, smell like a bum, who cares, I know the fish wont!
We camp many of the places we fly fish. Backpacking to car camping there are opportunities for every style!
The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife stock over 40 streams with trout multiple times are year!
We do not get the pleasure of many hold over trout due to harvesting and the low, hot summer waters.
Spend enough time exploring you might find one!
I’m a trout bum but seeing as we live in Kentucky it would be crazy not to target warm water fish!
The opportunities are endless. Streams, ponds, rivers and lakes, Kentucky is covered in water. Warm water fish attack and have shoulders for days! They are fun hard fighting fish!
Every now and then we get to expand our fly fishing experiences by traveling beyond our home waters!
We share the adventure to promote those passionate guides who helped create our life long fly fishing memories!
Give them a call if you find yourself near their waters!
