We provide lunch, guides, flies/leaders/tippet, rods and reels if needed, you must bring waders and wading boots, sunglasses.

WNY Fly Fishing Stream Report 10/6/2026

 the Lake Ontario tribs have fish in them salmon being most abundant right now with some browns mixed in. There is fish in the Catt but most of the rez is still shut down and the small to mid-size ones have little to no water in them

WNY Fly Fishing Stream Report 9/20/2026

 Cooler temps has brought some fish in the Catt and LO tribs, so with that in mind the crowds will be getting stupid very soon. The rez is still shut down so everyone will be moving up the system so pick wisely on where you want to go

WNY Fly Fishing

 Went to the upper catt to say goodbye to a very dear friend who passed away from cancer and was surprised on the number of good-sized fish we found in the skinny water. I managed to get one to take a small caddis, but like I said it was not about fishing just remembering a very good friend. Tom Kurowski
you will be missed by so many people, your smile lights up a room, out times on the streams was so much fun and tiring from laughing so much. RIP brother
