    Korey is as good as it gets! His knowledge of the South Holston and Wautuga rivers are second to none. I highly recommend and you will not be disappointed!

    A guided trip with Korey was the experience I had no idea I needed, but I'm sure glad I had! Everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING about that trip was amazing. In addition to just being a great guy to be around and hang out with, from the moment I stepped onto the raft, he was supportive, informative and encouraging. Little tips here and there to help me catch more fish; never getting tired of paddling over to a spot where I'd gotten hung on a branch or rock; inspecting my line, bait and hook after every catch to make sure I was still putting forth the best presentation to the fish all added up to just an incredible day. Next time I go out with him, I'm not going to tell people that I'm going fishing, I'm going to tell them that I'm going "catching," because that's what you do with him. I lost count of how many fish I had pulled in within the first 2 hours. He gets you all over the fish. 10/10 Highly recommended!

    What a great experience I've had floating fhe river with Korey teice now. He is very knowledgeable about both conventional and fly fishing techniques and REALLY knows the river's intricacies. Korey is patient and extremely good at teaching in a way that works best with your learning type. Looking forward to many floats in the future! HIGHLY recommend!

    Super guide. Extremely knowledgeable about the waters, very fishy, has a happy attitude, and can def row that boat! I have been fishing for several eons, but I still learned from Korey. Go with him.
