Testimonials

Glenn Izmirian, MD - Huntington Beach, California

Sheerwater Guide Service is a pleasure to fish with. Over the last 10 years I have had the good fortune to fish many well-known trout waters in the Western United States. Nothing beats spending a day in Montana, fishing with Karl in his handmade wood drift boat. His fishing knowledge, tactics and rowing skills are unequalled. Always pleasant, he has been equally adept at teaching new tricks to experienced fisherman such as myself and novice friends of mine, just learning to fly fish.

I have fished with Sheerwater Guide Service for more than seven years, on trips of seven days to a few hours. Karl is a perfect guide; he is friendly, extremely knowledgeable and always seems to have the knack for finding fish, even on those “tough” days. Karl has intimate knowledge of virtually every western stream or river I have heard of, offers terrific advice and tips when asked, and is more of a friend to fish with rather than a fishing guide. If you love to fly fish, and want to experience a day with a real pro, call Karl.
