You know, there’s nothing worse than spending a day on the water and coming up empty-handed. I’ve been there—trust me. That’s why at Bald Mountain Fly Guides, we’re all about making sure every angler, whether it’s your first time or your hundredth, walks away with something special. Not just fish, though we’ve got plenty of those, but the kind of experience that sticks with you.

We’ve spent years—decades, really—figuring out what works in these waters. Flies, rigs, reading the currents, even the little quirks of where fish like to hide depending on the time of day. And it’s not just about catching ‘em; we’ll show you how to handle fish right, so they swim off strong. Catch and release is the only way we do things. Keeps the rivers healthy, and honestly, there’s something pretty satisfying about watching a big trout slip back into the water.

Now, let’s talk about the High Uintas. If you haven’t been, you’re missing out. Over a thousand lakes—well, 1,050 if we’re being picky—and some of the most untouched scenery you’ll ever see. Crystal-clear water, wild trout, and these quiet little pockets where it feels like you’re the only person for miles. I’ve fished all over, but this place? It’s something else.

I’m Anthony, by the way. Been guiding for 21 years now, and I’ve lost count of how many 20-inch trout I’ve pulled in. But what really gets me is seeing someone land their first big one. That moment when it clicks for them—that’s why I do this. I want folks to fall in love with fishing the way I did, and to care about these waters enough to keep ‘em thriving. Plus, let’s be honest, it’s just plain fun. Nothing beats swapping stories on the boat or laughing about the one that got away.

So if you’re looking for a trip that’s equal parts adventure and relaxation, give us a shout. We’ll take care of the rest.
