Fishing, Hunting, Trapping Instruction

Put our local knowledge and experience to work for you in the woods and waters of the beautiful Laurel Highlands region in Pennsylvania.

What Services do we Offer?

Fishing Instruction/Field Experience

We offer half day wading trips for trout and smallmouth bass. Beautiful, hungry, wild trout can be sought on a secluded, seldom fished rivulet.  Or, you can chase the trophy of a lifetime in the world class Youghiogheny River.  We have a small fleet of electric bikes that allow us to access remote locations and still have the energy to fish when we arrive. The trip can be tailored to suit your desires, and to fit the current water conditions.  We provide top of the line spinning tackle, but you can bring your own spinning or fly fishing gear.

Trapline Instruction

With decades of trapping experience under our belts, we can help to get your trapline off the ground. You can accompany us on our line and learn to make sets and find prime locations, or we can come to your trapline and refine your locations, sets, lures, etc.  We trap fox, coyote, bobcat, fisher, beaver, muskrat, mink, raccoon, opossum, skunk, weasel and otter.

Hunting Instruction/Consultation

Do you want to get a jump on mature bucks, or lock down a trophy gobbler? We can help with everything from habitat analysis, camera surveys, treestand placement, identifying optimal hunting conditions, securing private property permissions, and much more. Species include deer, turkey, and black bear. 

Trapline Tours

Curious to see what a modern, working trapline looks like in the lower 48?  Tag along with us on our working traplines throughout the fall and winter.  We can focus on whichever species you’d like to see, or we can run a mixed trapline.  We will be checking traps that were set previously, and adding new traps to show the process.  If you have a furtaker license, you can participate as much as you desire.

Testimonials

These guys are a blast to fish with. We caught more trout in a few hours than I usually catch in a few days. Eric and Angelo also taught me every plant that we encountered along the way. Awesome day!
