Jason is a master angler and guide. His knowledge and extreme passion for fly fishing makes for an excellent day on the water. We caught so many fish and had an amazing trip. I will absolutely be booking another trip and I would highly encourage anyone reading this to do the same.

Jason is a fun, knowledgable, and enthusiastic fishing partner and guide! He handles the boat with surgical precision and consistently puts me in the right situations to land fish, and I've landed some BIG ones on Jason's boat. His ability to read the water and conditions stems from thousands of hours on the water - having known Jason for over 20 years, and spending many of those hours with him - I can attest to it. Jason loves sharing his of knowledge and passion for angling with newcomers to the sport and seasoned veterans alike. Let Jason put you on some fish!

Jason with High Flying Flies is who I gladly recommend to anyone looking for a great fly fishing trip! I have floated with Jason twice and both times we had very successful days! Jason plans ahead to make sure his guests have a great fishing trip from monitoring the dam release schedules, the weather conditions and the visibility of the water. The views of the early mornings on the river started the days out right and I learned so much about trout fishing, selecting flies and using a fly rod. Jason would be a great guide for anyone, from the newbie to an experienced fly fisher. The Chattahoochee is a well-known river by most for floating it in the tubes with a cooler of beer. Let Jason share the beauty of this and other Georgia rivers and the trout with you.

My children refer to me as the worst fisherman in the world. I had been fly fishing for a year and had caught less than a handful of fish.

My children refer to me as the worst fisherman in the world. I had been fly fishing for a year and had caught less than a handful of fish. I went out with Jason and his expertise had me at 7 fish before lunch! Jason takes the time to explain the details and nuances of fly fishing that can mean the difference between catching fish and not catching fish. He's also a easy to talk to, so have no worries about awkward boat conversations! One thing that's notable about Jason is his passion for fish. You can tell he deeply cares not just about your experience, but also the fish and the environment. He uses barbless hooks and will explain in great detail how to ensure the fish is handled and released with the utmost care. I'd add one more plus, he's a talented photographer so you'll have the coolest photos from your trip. If you consider yourself a fisherman or are a true beginner, I wouldn't hesitate to book a float with Jason.

Recently, I had the good fortune to schedule an all-day float trip on the Toccoa tailwaters in North Georgia with High Flying Flies Guide Service to try my hand at fly fishing for the first time. And, thanks to Jason, the day was both fun and exhilarating.

Recently, I had the good fortune to schedule an all-day float trip on the Toccoa tailwaters in North Georgia with High Flying Flies Guide Service to try my hand at fly fishing for the first time. And, thanks to Jason, the day was both fun and exhilarating.
The fishing was good, despite higher than ideal water on the day of our float. We pulled in many fish, had a few others on the line, and spotted a huge brown trout in the waters.
Jason provided lessons on rod and reel setup, casting techniques, fly choice, line management, reading the river, and offered progressive tips as my experience improved throughout the day. The boat is top-notch, there was a great variety of gear to choose from, and fishing was non-stop as we shuttled between fly selection and styles of fishing.
Central to a high-quality experience is the guide. Without a doubt, Jason is an expert fisherman, a skilled boatsman, and a patient teacher. Even more, he has a good-humored personality that made the day an enjoyable, easy, and memorable experience. He provided outstanding hospitality by coordinating the trip in advance and making sure the day met my expectations regarding float times, locations, food, drinks, and my experience level.
Overall, the day on the river with High Flying Flies Guide Service has been a highlight of my fishing excursions this year and I look forward to the chance to hit the river with Jason again to wet some lines and land some trophy trout.

I've been fishing with Jason (High Flying Flies) twice now and had a blast on both occasions. Thanks to Jason's knowledge of the river and great selection of quality flies, we spent the day catching wild browns from start to finish. A truly stellar day! Looking forward to the next one.
