      I started guiding fishing trips on the Hiwassee River in late 2002 for Hiwassee Outfitters. Since then I have worked for every permit holder that has operated on the Hiwassee River. In 2006 I moved to Reliance as a full time resident looking for a change of pace, this is where I still live today with my family. I am now in my 22nd year as a guide and I hope to look forward to many more. I spend quite a few days every spring and summer on the local lakes and Tennessee River chasing warm water species as well. When I am not fishing, I work as an AEMT with a local EMS agency.

Paul has been guiding with us on the Hiwassee for the past couple of years. With limited availability Paul Covers weekend trips on Saturdays and Sundays when his schedule allows.  Paul loves to streamer fish as much as he can. If your into hunting striper or just looking for a larger trout, he can usually find one somewhere. A resident of the Cleveland area he is always close by and can be found fishing himself when he's not working.
