Albemarle Angler

Just took a ½ day trip with my buddy who has never been on a river fly fishing. I’m trying to convert him into a fly fisher so I’ll have a fishing buddy. Scott O. was our guide. Scott took time for both of us and made my buddy comfortable and able to catch some great trout! So important for a first outing! Scott was professional and knowledgeable and patient! The pictures of our fish were delivered to my e-​mail before I arrived home from the trip. All around great day and we’ll be back.

I don’t get to fish nearly as often as I’d like… I can count the days during the year I fish on one hand, so when I go out, I want to learn something, have fun, and maybe even catch a fish or two. I have been on several guided trips with Albemarle Angler. Most recently, with Scott, whom I have been with twice. Each time, my casting gets better, my knot-​knowledge grows, and I land fish. It’s always a great day out, no matter the weather. The folks at the shop are always helpful about fly selection, and the last time I was in, I borrowed boots and waders and had the warmest winter-​weather fishing day I have eve had. I should’ve had them help me with my purchases to start! Albemarle Angler is a fantastic local resource, and their guides are able to skate a careful continuum of helpful, encouraging, teaching and providing real service. I love these guys and this shop. Whether you live local, are in from out of town, or something in between, call these guys or stop by. Their private waters are quiet, beautiful and full of great fish.

Great stuff in here. So much more than fly fishing. They’ve got Barbour filson Orvis etc. even dog stuff
