About

Guiding for Atlantic salmon is my dream job. There's no better feeling than seeing a salmon rise for the fly and helping a guest land an Atlantic salmon. I'm 40 years old, been fly fishing since I was 10. Chasing Atlantics hardcore for 18 years and guiding for 10. I don't know who I'd be without salmon fishing. My wife is a seasoned fly fisher and guide. I've had the opportunity in my life to fish and guide the best rivers in Newfoundland & Labrador. I now enjoying taking new and seasoned anglers fishing. Being in the outdoors and fly fishing has always been a passion of mine since I was a child, fishing with my grandfather and father. Learning new and advanced fly fishing technique's and methods to catch more fish is something I've always enjoyed doing. I guide numerous rivers throughout the season. We walk or use jet boat to navigate rivers. We do boat fishing, wader fishing or both. Traditionally single handed rods are used, but two handed rods are very welcomed. Please reach out if you're a beginner or seasoned fly fisher, and you want to get out on the rivers while in Newfoundland. We'd be happy to chat and arrange a fishing trip for you. Day trips and multi days trips available. -Ben

Great day with Ben on pristine NL river

My nephew and I booked a day with Ben through Tight Loops Tight Lines. We had a marvelous day on one of the most pristine rivers we ever could have imagined. Ben was a true gentleman setting us up for success. We caught one nice grilse and a sea run brookie despite tough conditions in low warm water. Ben made a delicious shore lunch and kept us entertained with his infectious personality. I wouldn’t hesitate to book another day on the water with Ben. He’s a gem of a guide and a great soul.
