“Michael Jones is the real deal. I’ve fished with a lot of guides over the years, and Michael is one of the very best. He’s professional, a great storyteller, and works hard to put you on fish. Most importantly, no one knows the Androscoggin River like Michael does. It’s not just the fishing, a day on the river with Michael is a great experience.”

“Mike Jones is a truly excellent guide. He is devoted to his game, knows his waters inside out, and loves to put sports onto fish. He is hardworking, patient, kind, good company, and a wealth of knowledge. Mike offers useful advice in just the right way, cooks up a delicious and efficient shore lunch if you want it, and is extremely well organized and totally competent, from initial communication through to arrangements on where/when to meet, details of tackle, and equipment. I have been hiring guides for 30 years – Mike is right up with the best of the best, and I look forward to many, many more outings.”

His knowledge and experience astound me. Thanks, Michael, for the absolute best smallmouth fishing in my life.”

“Michael Jones is the best guide I have had the pleasure of fishing with. He knows the River, and he knows the fish. Fishing with Michael is like having a fishing lesson. When my casting starts getting sloppy, he corrects me, and I love it. Fishing with Michael is a great experience—one I eagerly anticipate every year. Thank you, Michael, I will see you soon.”
