Brian Wise is a fly-fishing guide in extreme southern Missouri. His mainstays are the wild rainbow trout and large predatory brown trout of the north fork of the White River, in Missouri and the White River, Arkansas — but he is also a self-proclaimed smallmouth junky and loves the seasonal striper fishing as well. Priding himself on his teaching abilities and flat-out big fish catching karma, Brian has quickly made his way among the top guides in the Midwest. He has guided for over decade and has been featured in magazines such as Fly Fisherman, Field and Stream, Rural Missouri Magazine, on television shows such as NBC’s Today Show, Outdoor Channel’s Ultimate Outdoors, several appearances on Outdoor Channel Outfitters as well as several promo videos. He was a 2007 qualifier for the coveted Best of the West distance casting competition and won the Bennett Springs distance casting competition with a whopping cast of 106 feet. When Brian isn’t guiding he is fishing with his family. He also enjoys making fly fishing and fly-tying videos.
