Again for 2026 I'll be doing guide trips for smallmouth and largemouth bass throughout the summer months. Three years ago I started running these guide trips on lakes the Juniata River and some of the bigger streams in northern PA. These trips went over very well with the warm water anglers that I guided.
Being a die heart trout angler I wanted to extend my fly fishing outings through the summer. So when our trout streams started to reach somewhat high temperatures, it was time to give the trout a break and go fish for the second best predatory game fish in our waters, BASS.
I offer three different guide trips. First being a walk and wade trip on some of North Central Pennsylvania's biggest streams. Second, a float trip seven to eight miles on the Juniata River chasing smallmouths in my three man StealthCraft raft. Third casting for largemouths on a few selected lakes out of my 14' Salt Marsh poling skiff.
So if you're looking to extend your fly fishing season into those summer months and would like to chase some pretty aggressive fish with bigger flies. Check out my bass trips on the Guide Trip Page. I am sure you'll have a great time on one of them. Give me a call and we'll set a date for a good time on the water.
NEW in 2026 Sky Blue Outfitters and Wet Fly Waterguides have teamed up to offer anglers some All Inclusive Guide Trips (Guiding,Lodging,Food) on the Little Juniata River and the Frankstown Branch for the Juniata River. Two of the premier trout rivers in Central Pennsylvania. Both of these rivers have very similar characteristics in size, hatches and not to mention their brown trout. The Little Juniata is primarily a walk & wade river with great access and the Frankstown Branch is also a walk & wade river with limited access, with the possibility of floating if flows are favorable. We have secured a very nice Airbnb in the valley that sleeps two anglers comfortably and is located just minutes away from both rivers. Our place has all the amenities of home.
These All Inclusive Guide Trips will be for two anglers, two nights lodging and two days fishing. On day one you will arrive at 12:00noon, stow your gear in your room and have lunch. After lunch we'll get geared up and make our way to the river to fish till dark. After fishing for the day we'll head back and have dinner. Day two will have breakfast then head to the river for the day. We'll have lunch on the river then fish till dark. On day three wake for breakfast, gather and load gear and head for home.
