I had the opportunity of fishing with Jay in the middle of winter. My expectations were not too high for the actual fishing but very high to find a guide in the Graeagle area. The temperatures were below freezing but you would have never guessed it from Jay. He hopped out of his truck having the energy and enthusiasm of a kid going fishing for the first time...like me fishing all the time...AND the way it should be. We fished for a full day and I lost count of how many fish I caught BUT the part that impressed me was his ability to teach and hopefully break me of my bad habits. He is a fantastic instructor, teacher, guide, and an amazing person. I had such a great day on the water with Jay, I immediately booked another trip with him the same week (another great day). I had an amazing time with Jay and learned a lot!! Looking forward to our next adventure. Thank you JAY!!

Jay did a fantastic job. As a novice to fly fishing, I appreciated the instruction and Jay’s patience. He’s “hooked” me on the sport!

My son Nico and I have used many guides. Jay Clark is simply the very best experience! He knows his profession, yes. But just as important, he knows how to make the experience memorable. He not only teaches you about the art of fly fishing but he teaches you about nature, how to respect and preserve it and how to appreciate it beyond just its beauty. If you’re looking for a true teacher that wants you to have a great experience as much as he wants you to land the perfect fish story to tell your family and friends, Jay Clark is the best choice!

Trout fishing with Jay is exciting and enjoyable. I really appreciate his local knowledge, passion, and professionalism. Every time we go out I learn more and become a better angler - while at the same time keeping it simple. Jay is approachable and connects well with people - probably why I keep coming back. Can't wait for next time!

Jay taught us to fly fish like the pros. He knew the hot spots and gave us just the right gear line rigging. Maybe it wasn't the best of days for the Mountain Whitefish but it definitely was for us. Plus, it was amazing times to spend with my sons to unplug and enjoy the beautiful Truckee. There are other guide "firms" out there, but the personalized time Jay spends with you is so much more worth it. We will be back. I would suggest anyone else does too.

I have fished with Jay numerous times. I remember the first time when another guide who was already booked on the day I could fish recommended Jay to me and said "He will work his a** off for you." It was so very true. Jay will teach you what you need to know and patiently work with you for as long as it takes on your trip. I've fished Pyramid Lake with him and now I feel very confident on the lake from the teaching he has given me, and have enjoyed success from the things he has shown me. Thanks Jay!
