Our mission is simple, to share our love of the river with you and help you experience a fun and relaxing trip while learning to love our home waters as much as we do. We know that when people experience the beauty first hand they are more likely to want to protect it and protecting and preserving this resource is our number one priority.
The Smith River has something for everyone from fishing, paddling, tubing or just hiking along one of the stream-side trails. Wildlife and wildflowers are the hidden gems found right in the middle of Henry County. If it's a paddle, float, fishing or solitude you seek it's all right here.

See You On The River !
FISHING
Spend the day with an experienced, professional angler as they guide you down a premier trout stream offering both stocked Rainbows, Brook Trout and wild Browns. Float trips are schedule based on flow conditions and must be arraigned in advance. The Smith river has Virginia’s highest catch rate of wild Brown trout as per data from the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. The Brown trout of the Smith River are not always the biggest Browns you will catch in Virginia Rivers but you will enjoy matching wits with some of the “wilyest” trout in the state. No stocking program for browns on the Smith means you are catching 100% stream spawned fish….and they are crafty ! Enjoy a relaxing trip down the river in comfort and style while you match wits with these beautiful jewels. A variety of tactics and tackle are used. Fly fishing trips are primary but spin fishing can be accommodated as well. Catch and release only on brown trout, stocked rainbows and brooks of legal size may be taken. Enjoy the experience from the comfort of cushioned seats on a custom designed fishing raft. Bring your own gear and enjoy half day trips of approximately four hours on the water; includes spare equipment as needed, snacks, and drinks.
