Why hire a guide?

Fly fishing guides can be such a useful resource. If you are out fishing in an area that you do not know yet, it is most certainly worth the money to hire a fly fishing guide. They can show you the most beautiful and bountiful spots on a river, stream, or lake. Fly fishing guides can take you to places you have never been before, places you would not have been able to find on your own.

Guide Derek Hendrickson, with Hooked Up Anglers, grew up in the foothills of Northern California and has been a avid fly fisherman for most of his life. He began fishing at a young age and a trip to Montana changed his life. Derek found fly fishing to be the most exciting, therapeutic, and rewarding aspect of angling.
One thing he found more pleasing than landing a fish himself was putting others on fish. Derek can take you to native Trout and Steelhead of the Yuba River or Striper and Steelhead of the Lower American River. He also guides the scenic canyons of the Middle Fork of the American River where there is an abundance of greedy wild Rainbows and Browns willing to take a fly. Derek lives in Lincoln, CA with his wife and two future anglers.
