Mychal, provided us one of the most delightful float fishing experiences. We are in our 70’s and 80’s and he made it a breeze. The Toe River was a bit up and he handled it perfectly. Didn’t have the best day catching, but his knowledge of the river made it a great experience. Also say a couple of eagles. Highly recommend Curtis Wright and especially Mychal.

We couldn't have been happier with our choice of this outfitter! Be sure to book in advance, and if you can, request Craig - nobody works harder to get you on the bite!

Samantha the falconer was awesome! This was a fantastic experience if you are interested in birds of prey. She took the time to answer all questions and was very knowledgeable. The birds seemed to be very well taken care of too and were beautiful.

My husband and I did a 1.5 hour falconry experience with Pete in Franklin, NC. It was an amazing experience. Pete is so knowledgeable about his birds and answered all of our questions. I am not a "bird person" but he made me feel so at ease because I knew he had his birds' safety and our safety under control. We were able to interact with a female falcon and a male hawk....got to handle both of them and give commands for them to fly right to us. It was truly incredible. We can't stop showing everyone our pictures and videos. If you are close to this area, I highly recommend it.

Our first-ever trip to WNC and we HAD to fish! After all, it's one of the best bass fishing states around. We connected with Curtis Wright Outfitters (CWO) - They called back! We had contacted three other guide services and didn't ever hear back. CWO handled everything quickly and professionally to get us ready to go.
Craig was our guide. He was on time, knowledgeable about the French Broad river, and put my daughter and I on a lot of small mouth bass spots. Even with the murky water, we were able to get action and had a GREAT 1/2 day on the water!
Next time we're in the Asheville area, you know we'll be contacting CWO and having Craig take us out again.

We had an incredible time in Highlands with Pete and his Harris Hawks! This was an amazing experience! I’d say a “once in a lifetime” experience but I want to do it again. Having the chance to experience working with Sweetie Boy and Syra was wonderful. Pete made us feel totally comfortable as he imparted so much history and knowledge! Several hours seems like minutes! This is appropriate for all ages- a perfect family outing!!

For our 32nd anniversary I treated my husband to a full day wade trout fishing with our guide Phil. He took us to the perfect spot and, as our first time fly fishing, taught us several different casting techniques. He showed us where the best spots were to find fish and changed out our flies to find what the fish were biting. He also provided a great picnic lunch to get us ready for the rest of the afternoon on the river. I appreciated his patience with me trying to learn to “set, set”! The saying is true… “fish don’t live in ugly places!” Thanks Phil and Curtis Wright Outfitters for a wonderful experience!

We (myself, son, and husband) had a wonderful morning half-day trip with Will. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. He was very knowledgeable about where and how to catch the trout. All 3 of us caught a "grand slam." He also taught us about the different fish species and how to properly catch and release. Curtis Wright Outfitters provided a great guide, waders, snacks, and all needed fishing gear. If you are debating on getting a guide or just going on your own - get a guide! It was pretty humorous, others fishing the area kept moving closer because we were catching fish, and they were not. Will knew exactly what bait to use and what spots to fish. He respects the river and the fish and was a lot of fun. Get a guide and go with Curtis Wright Outfitters. They will work hard to ensure you have a great time.

We did an all day wade trip for our family. All 3 novice fishermen. 2 adults and my teenage daughter. This was one of the best experiences we have had in years of traveling. The service from start to finish was wonderful. Craig was our guide and he was amazing. He was knowledgeable, patient and friendly. He made our teenager happy and comfortable. She had success fishing and didn't think about her phone for 8 hours. We have never fished and he had us on the water and casting within an hour. Everything was provided . I cannot say enough great things about our experience. Book this trip, you won't regret it. I would book with them again in a heartbeat.

From the very first call with Curtis Wright Outfitters to the end of our float trip, this company provided outstanding service. We could not have been happier with our guide, Craig Byers. He met us on time, accommodated all our request and needs, was always pleasant, provided us with appropriate advice on techniques and he knew the river well. My husband has some physical limitation and Craig was patient and helpful getting him in and out of the boat. Together on our one day float trip we caught 35 fish, not a bad day for anyone! So often guides will be on their cell phone handling calls from other potential clients or arranging for car transport, etc, but not once did Craig pull out his phone. We could not have been happier with Craig or our experience with Curtis Wright Outfitters
