Virginia Fly Fishing Shop and Guide Services
Come experience the best fly fishing Virginia has to offer! Our fly shop is located in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley only minutes away from spring creek brown trout on the famous Mossy Creek. We are also surrounded by wild brook trout in the freestone mountain streams of The George Washington National Forest and Shenandoah National Park. We fish for Smallmouth bass, musky, and carp on the Shenandoah and James Rivers. Our shop also manages many stretches of private trophy trout water on local spring creeks and rivers. Private and corporate fly fishing lessons and clinics are available at our schools in Harrisonburg or Wintergreen Resort, Virginia. Our store stocks Orvis, Simms, Patagonia, Fishpond, Reddington, Umpqua, Montana Fly, Brodin, C&F, Rio, NRS, Tenkara, Renzetti, Wapsi, Rumpf, Spirit River, Kreinik, and many more great products. We have the largest selection of fly tying material in the state. Whether you are looking for big browns, rainbows, or brook trout, our expert staff and guides will help you plan a trip to remember.

Current Local Fishing Conditions


James and Shenandoah Rivers

Bass fishing has been great if you know where to look! Tons of big fish are being caught on the Shenandoah and James Rivers.

Mountain Brook Trout Streams

The brook trout fishing has been great and the rains this week will help water levels.

Spring Creeks

The spring creeks have been keeping us busy this spring. We are out with 3-4 trips now daily on the spring creeks. Sulphurs and tricos have already started! The dry fly action is getting better each day.

Managed Trout Water

The special reg waters and local stocked waters are still fishing well. Keep an eye on the VDGIF website for updates over the next 3 weeks!

This Week At

Mossy Creek

Trout are crushing dries on Mossy and the Bass fishing is epic. Periodic cicadas are crawling around on the upper James. Fishing can't get much better!

We have been landing 100's of bass on the Shenandoah and huge fish on the James. The trout fishing on the spring creeks and up in the mountains couldn't get much better. We have a minimum of 3 trips booked every day into June. We will post reports daily when we get off the water! Look for bass and trout trips in mid to late June.
