The Next Bend Fly Fishing
01 — About

The brief.

The Next Bend Fly Fishing is an Ontario guide service led by owner and head guide Daniel Steiner. It runs guided fly fishing trips and instructional classes for anglers of every level, from beginners chasing a first trout to experienced rods. Trips range from wading excursions with dry flies and streamers for brown trout to drift-boat and spey outings for Great Lakes steelhead. The operation fishes home waters across Southwestern and central Ontario, including the Credit River, Grand, Bighead, Beaver, Saugeen, and Nottawasaga Rivers, which hold wild resident trout, steelhead, and bass. Guides focus on building the casting and reading-water foundations clients need to improve and catch more fish.
