About your guide
I, Noah Stevens, have been fly fishing since I was about 7 years old (2014), always enjoying it, but taking it to new levels in 2024. Since then, I have learned rapidly and taken any opportunity possible to get on the water. Getting my Registered Maine fishing guides license was an obvious next step for me and one that I completed in June of 2026. My passion for wild fish, and more specifically native fish, such as Maine's brook trout, has taken hold on my life. The importance of catch and release, safe fish handling, and monitoring water temperature has become prevalent in my day to day fishing. Conserving the very species that I love and fish for is unambiguous. Along with fly fishing, I enjoy backcountry (and resort) snowboarding, as well as photography/cinematography, the latter of which have made a seamless transition with my fly fishing.

Safety First
As an avid outdoorsman my whole life, especially with my adventures becoming more solo and remote recently, safety has become a top priority. Because of this, I have taken the time to become Wilderness First Aid certified and have invested in gear to make my trips safer.
Adventure
& Experience
I stand behind the saying that a bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work! Of course, the fish are an added bonus, but the beauty of the nature around us is equally impressive, regardless of how the fishing is. Fly fishing is a great opportunity to explore wild and remote places, where you can feel like you are the only person for miles. I, and clients, often find this to be that factor that makes the trip!
Size Doesn't Always Matter
Growing up, all of my fly fishing took place on beaver bogs and tiny streams, small enough that many would doubt that a fish actually lived in them. These will forever hold a special place in my heart. While bigger fish and bigger water have piqued my interest more recently, I still have a strong passion for the small, overlooked, and, often, unpressured streams that hold native Brook Trout. The fish may be small, but there is no denying the fun that comes out of targeting them with a dry fly on a small fly rod.
