ABOUT YOUR GUIDE
I remember fishing with my Dad as a kid and have always had fond memories of my time on the water. The calm, the quiet, the concentration...it was a place that I could tune out all other distractions and just be in the moment. As a physical therapist, I would utilize fishing as a way to decompress from a long week of working in healthcare. Casually, I began teaching friends how to improve their skills and slowly began incorporating new techniques and learning to tie my own flies. It was then that I discovered that I was, quite literally, hooked to the sport of fishing.
Hook'n Lips, LLC was developed as a way for me to blend my passions and provide a needed service to my local community. I provide instructional, guided fishing trips for clients of ALL skill levels and ages. I strive to make these services available to clients of all ability and activity levels and to promote inclusivity within the sport. As a physical therapist, I am able to provide adapted guide trips for clients with mobility impairments, balance deficits and can assist with adapting equipment for use if needed (ex. decreased strength in arm due to stroke).
​
Hook'n Lips specializes in exclusive, custom fishing trips to meet our client's needs. We strive to provide an excellent experience all-around and guarantee to put you on fish! Contact us today to book a standard or deluxe wade trip or let us customize an experience tailored just for you.

Fish on,
