About The Founders

From Asheville, Paul grew up fly fishing for trout on local creeks and bass fishing on stream-fed mountain lakes around Western North Carolina. His fishing obsession started at a young age while spending time on his family property in Lake Lure, North Carolina. He became hooked on fishing and spent every second of his childhood learning about the creeks, streams, and rivers around Asheville, NC. Paul has extensive knowledge about fishing mountain lakes and the rivers that run into them. In an effort to provide fun and safe fly fishing trips, he is USCG Licensed.
