![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() MEET YOUR GUIDE ~ I've spent most of my life fishing. The rest of it I wasted. Tom is a licensed professional Pennsylvania fishing guide, outdoorsman and conservationist. In addition to specializing in fly angling excursions on Penns Creek, Tom has a wealth of experience guiding (and fishing) on other storied local waters: Spruce Creek, the Little Juniata River and Spring Creek. He began fishing for trout with a fly rod as a small boy at his father’s side in the Laurel Highlands of Southwestern Pennsylvania. Growing up in the Tri-State area provided regular opportunities to explore Commonwealth trout waters and streams in Maryland and West Virginia as well. A fly tying course offered by the Penns Woods West Chapter of Trout Unlimited in Pittsburgh was his introduction to the “fine and pleasant madness” of fly fishing.
Tom is an enthusiastic volunteer with the Penns Valley Conservation Association and the Spring Creek Chapter of Trout Unlimited. Working with these vanguard conservation groups affords him an opportunity to give back to the resource and sport he holds in such esteem. ~ Give a man a fish and he’ll eat for a day.
