"Mitch Harrison is a Pro.  We had action from the moment my fly hit the water.  He knows his home rivers, where the fish are hiding, and what they like to eat.  We caught many fish, Rainbows, Browns, and native Brookies.  My full day of fishing with Mitch was extremely successful and comfortable.   His demeanor is warm and disarming.  He loves his work and knows how to make his client feel relaxed.  His style of coaching comes from his keen observation.  He does not over teach.  Yet, he was very attentive to my needs.  He is focused on catching fish but seems to always be in the background.  Mitch is understated but not afraid to guide. Mitch Harrison is an outstanding fishing guide and one hell of a nice fishing companion. What a joy to fish on a beautiful rivers, in solitude, no other anglers, with a top-shelf guide.  Thanks Mitch for sharing your river and expertise with me."
