About your Guides -  Natalie grew up river and deep-sea fishing in Florida with her father and took up fly fishing as a hobby in 2000 to relieve the stress of her day job.  Falling in love with the sport, the rivers, creeks and the quaintness of Blue Ridge, the hobby that began as stress reliever soon became Natalie's passion to share with others.    Combining her love for cooking and fly-fishing, Natalie created SharperBites to fulfill her vision of the ultimate fun for a relaxing and unique fly-fishing experience while escaping to the beautiful mountains of Blue Ridge, GA. 

  Joe caught his first
  trout      at  the age of six
  while living in central 
  Illinois.  After moving 
  to florida in his teens, 
 Joe  adventured in 
 catching   seatrout, reds
 and snook  from a kayak. 
 After  monthly trips for several years Joe, moved to Fannin County full-time in 2006.  By then he was already well-versed in the art of fly-fishing and safe canoe floating on the beautiful Toccoa River.  A float trip with Joe can put the experienced fly-fisherman in places in many other anglers can't reach, more serene surroundings with the increase possibility of catching larger fish.

Joe brings a wealth of experience as as a fly-fishing guide and Outdoor Writer/Photographer to the team of SharperBites.  Most recently, Joe was awarded the first place statewide winner for the Feature Photograph in the Georgia Press Association's 2008 Better Newspaper Contest. covered various trout-related events and issues for local publications and is a regular contributor to the "Georgia Outdoor News" and Trout Unlimited's "Trout magazine, among others. 

Natalie and Joe, with their disarming personalities, sense of humor, and expertise provide the perfect learning experience for your fly-fishing adventure while relaxing in Blue Ridge.  And to remember  your fly-fishing experience each guest receives a CD of photographs - memories to last a lifetime and share with family and friends.

Call today and book your trip!  All is equipment is provided.  Just bring your fishing license with a trout stamp, polarized sunglasses, hat/sun visor, (2) pair of sport socks, rain jacket, a change of clothes and long underwear (if fishing during the winter months).

"It was a truly amazing Birthday!  Not only did I
learn to fly fish  and catch fish but I dined on an
amazing gourmet lunch of shrimp dip appetizer,
grilled salmon and asparagus,pasta salad,
fresh strawberries on pound cake topped with
whipped cream and a bottle of wine.  The perfect
ending to a wonderful experience.  It really is
flyfishing with a gourmet bite."    Danny - Atlanta

  '' I booked a    
    SharperBites   flyfishing trip for my wife's Birthday.  She has been wanting to try fly fishing
for awhile.  The fishing was great but the gourmet
lunch unbelievable.  Natalie's attention to the dining details is exactly what my wife enjoys!   We  both are hooked and will be back. We love Blue Ridge!
