Steve Claxton Guide Service – Smoky Mountain Fly Fishing Trips

STEVE'S GREAT ADVENTURE
From late June through early August, Steve will be on his own cross – country adventure. Story below

Each year, millions of people “escape” to the Smokies, distancing themselves from the drudgery of their everyday routines for a refreshing brush with nature. Yet only few are lucky enough to really escape, leaving all traces of civilization behind — camping under the stars, fishing for wild mountain trout, following un-beaten paths into the wildest areas of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

WHERE WE GO

You can be one of those lucky few. Each weekend, from April thru November, Smoky Mountain Adventures takes a small group of 5 to 12 campers across Fontana Lake to the remote North Shore forest for a memorable two-day guided outing. Everything is provided — the equipment, the food and the expert knowledge of one of the Smokies’ most experienced guides, Steve Claxton.

Your Smoky Mountain camping, hiking and fly fishing trip is just a phone call away.

Smoky Mountain Adventures – guided hiking and fly fishing trips – is fully insured, licensed and permitted by the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

A twenty-minute pontoon boat ride across Fontana Lake takes you to one of the most remote areas of the National Park, where wildlife sightings are commonplace and smoky mountain fly fishing is legendary.

BIKE ACROSS AMERICA
On June 22, 2008 Steve Claxton will begin his 40 day journey from Astoria, Oregon and travel back to Bryson City, by bicycle. The purpose of this trip is two fold, first to raise funds for a scholarship in his mother’s name who was a life-long educator at Swain County High School, and secondly to raise awareness to the importance of the teaching profession. “What other profession in our country has as much of an impact on the future of our children and the future of our country as a teacher? They spend 180 days a year, seven hours a day, thirteen years of a child’s life pouring their hearts out to provide a better quality of life for each youngster, and ultimately a better community in which we live in” Steve recently said. Steve will make the 4,000 mile journey averaging 100 miles per day.
