The Harrison's Guide Service
To provide you with a float trip that you will not soon forget. My brother Dan and I have guided 4 years in Montana and two years in Chile. Our loyalty remains here in western MA where we have guided the past 5 seasons. We grew up fishing rivers around the area and would love to share a day on the river with anyone who is interested in seeing the Millers or Deerfield. If you have never fly fished before or if you are a veteran of many tight lined battles, let us show you the rivers we have grown to love from the comfort of our Aire fishing rafts.

The January meeting will feature Jim Norton of the New England Guide Service. The meeting will begin at 6:30 pm in the lower section of the Dublin Publin Library. Below is a preview with information on Jim Norton.
