Lucas Smith, Guide at What That Vise Do

WHY BOOK WITH WHAT THAT VISE DO?

At What That Vise Do we understand it can be a difficult decision whether or not to book a guide for your next fishing trip. With numerous guides and outfitters spanning our territory from Eastern Ohio to Eastern Pennsylvania, the overall market’s congestion can feel overwhelming. So what separates us from the pack?

With over ten plus years of fly fishing experience combined with graduating in 2020 from Sweetwater Travel Co.’s premier guide school, What That Vise Do has built a sturdy foundation for lasting success in the industry. Additionally, our unique, hand tied flies give us an advantage when guiding on pressured water.

Most importantly, we are here to create meaningful relationships bonded over a shared passion for fly fishing. Our trips are designed to not only catch fish, but improve your overall angling ability. Here at What That Vise Do, we feel very fortunate to have friends all across our territory getting after it and providing real-time fishing reports. This information combined with our experience maximizes our changes to have an unforgettable day on the water.


DO I HAVE TO HAVE ANY FLY FISHING EXPERIENCE?

You do not! However, we do offer instructional courses for the novice angler looking to refine their skills. We will work with you at any experience level and put you in positions to catch fish. Your first fish on the fly will be a memorable one!


ESSENTIAL ITEMS

Communicate with your guide and keep an eye on the weather to ensure you bring all essential items applicable to your trip…

Essential items include but aren’t limited to: Rain jacket, additional cold-weather layers, sun screen, polarized sunglasses, waders / wading boots, wading belt, and all necessary medications.


CAN CHANGING WEATHER AFFECT OUR TRIP?

In most instances, changing weather will not affect our trip. All fish species can be caught in a variety of weather and river conditions. We are here to pivot and rely on our knowledge of these rivers to locate and catch fish. Please reach out in the days leading up to our trip so we can advise on all essential items you will need. In rare instances, trips or classes may be canceled at the discretion of the guide. Trips and classes may be rescheduled, but not refunded.
