Important - please understand

This may sound a little ornery, yet it should be said.

It does Not make any difference weather you are fishing with me or not.If you can not hit a 9 inch paper plate at 30 feet, you need to practice. I can not overstate this fact. Spin or fly rod, you need to make the cast to catch a remarkable Trout. Food for thought. Have a great Christmas a nd have a super new year.

Introduction

Welcome to Trapper's Guide Service.
I specialize in quality Trout, guiding in the Driftless Area ,mainly in Vernon,Crawford and Richland counties. I live in a small hamlet called Avalanche, which many consider Trout Central.
I do not teach fly fishing. I will show you great places to fish and how to catch them. Spin fisher-people are encouraged. My 40 years of experience fishing here is a great bet you may find the fish of your dreams. I am an officer of West fork Sportsmans Club and also in charge of our wild Trout fish rearing program. Having release over 120,000 wild strain Trout in the past 17 years, gives me an advantage. Bring a camera as we encourage catch and release. Email at trapafox@hotmail.com
