RATES EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 31, 2008
We are a small family run guide group of hand picked
individuals that focus on teaching innovative methods of fly fishing. We
get a few dollars more because we strongly believe we are the best.
We put faces and names with our guides. Our guide page has individual
names and biography's with backgrounds of
each instructor. Every guide has extensive experience and training
in the fisheries they guide. These people are not "shop guide
employees" they are professional adults with full credentials.
Sierra Drifters was established in 1998 by Tom Loe and he has selectively
added additional top notch individuals to assist fly fishers.
Our guide fees are ALL inclusive! You arrive at the lake, river or stream of
your choice with a license, a camera and a smile and we take care of the
rest. There are no miscellaneous hidden costs. We will NOT make you show
up at a shop and add that time to your guide day. We promise you will NOT have
to purchase flies, lines, tippets, indicators or other tackle. We
supply top of the line rods and reels at no additional cost to you. You
do NOT have to rent from us. We will NOT add a boat fee. We DO have the
finest equipment and boats in the Eastern Sierra. You will be responsible
for your own personal gear which would include items such as hats, jackets,
sunglasses & waders if necessary. Our guide service
utilizes customized Champion & Ranger flats style bay
Boats and "state of the art" drift boats custom made by Willie. There
are larger and less expensive guide services for sure, but there are none
better!
