TESTIMONIALS

What Others Are Saying

I've been fishing with AC Flyfishing for about 10 years. I can't say enough positive things about this outfit, and especially Anthony. I've fished day trips on the Lower Sac, Pit, McCloud, and Fall River. I've gone on guided trips to Alaska, Montana, & Wyoming. All this to say you can't fish with a better group of guides. Quality outfit which puts you on the fish while having a great time.

I took my son and his buddy fishing with AC Fly Fishing in early March. Despite crazy snow and rain we had epic days on the Lower Sac (with Jason and Travis) and the Trinity (with Travis and Guy).  On the Trinity, both boys landed their first steelhead (two 12”s, one 20”, one 23” and a 27”) and a beautiful brown.  Thanks for an amazing few days!  We shall return!

Harry at AC was great company and an even better guide. He knew the lower Sac like the back of his hand and put us on fish ALL day. Remarkable time and I will be back next October for a 3rd year in a row. Thanks AC!

Our second fall trip with AC.  Guides Darrin and Matt were the best.  They coach / advise on the level you're at and focus on incremental progression and having fun.  Zero attitude, just cool guys who are sharing their passion for fishing with all comers.  Definitely coming back!


Anthony and his team are the most professional and “fishiest” group of guides anywhere. Northern California rivals anywhere in the lower 48 for great trout, steelhead, striper, and bass fishing. Highly recommended for experienced anglers and beginners as well.
