I grew up in rural northeastern Pennsylvania, moving to Vermont in 1998. Soon finding the fishing to be excellent, I began to devote many hours to exploring local waters primarily for trout, but also bass and pike and other species. I really enjoy the places that chasing fish take me and always find something to learn on the slow and/or hard days. When not guiding or doing some personal fishing or tying flies, I work as a carpenter.

Min grew up fishing in the Middlebury area and just recently moved back to VT with his family. The local otter creek tributaries are his home away from home and more often than not he’ll be somewhere on the water.

Evan was born in Vermont and learned to fly fish from a guided trip through GMA and been addicted ever since. He loves all types of fly fishing from tight lining for trout to throwing big flys to pike and musky. His days off are spent behind the oars of his raft in search of his next adventure.
