Our Guides

Justin Shroyer graduated from Appalachian State University with a degree in Environmental Biology and Ecology, and has been guiding the region since 2003. He loves stalking massive tailwater brown trout, and never ignores a good top water smallmouth bite. Not afraid to think outside the box, or float the unfloatable, Justin varies his methods and locations to consistently put his customers on top notch fishing. Justin founded TWGS in 2009, and currently resides year-round in Boone, NC with his wife and two kids.

Rhett Shroyer is the head guide for TWGS, and has been guiding with his brother since 2007.  While growing up, Rhett aspired to become a professional fisherman, and his loyal customer base shows he made the right decision. He is one of the most consistent guides around, putting his clients on quality wild fish trip after trip. Rhett can handle any guiding situation our region has to offer, providing anglers of all skill levels consistent success. He is on the water almost every day, whether he is working or not.

Nick Shroyer has done it all for TWGS since joining the squad in 2014 including managing the fly shop, guiding, branding, SEO, and social media duties. Nick has a special knack for tracking down large migratory stripers and trout in seldom fished areas, and applying advanced tactics to catch these fish.   He is just as comfortable on a blackbass bite as he is targeting finicky S. Holston brown trout in gin clear water.  His trip booking and customer service skills keeps everyone busy, and the company running smoothly.
