About

I was raised in the heart of the Catskills, where watching my older brothers chase trophy brown trout in local creeks and New York City reservoirs lit a fire in me that never went out. That curiosity grew into a lifelong pursuit—earning a biology degree in Oswego, immersing myself in the Great Lakes fishery, and later interning with both the NYC Department of Environmental Protection and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. From the reservoirs of the Catskills to the Hudson River’s striped bass runs, every step sharpened my understanding of fish behavior, ecosystems, and the skills it takes to consistently succeed on the water. I didn’t start out perfect—I struggled, learned, adapted, and eventually mastered techniques like reservoir trolling, fly fishing and tying, and night fishing for walleye. What truly changed everything was sharing those hard-earned skills with others and watching them land fish they once thought were out of reach. Fishing has a way of making the world disappear, even if just for a moment, and nothing excites me more than guiding people through some of the most beautiful waters in New York and helping them experience that feeling for themselves. I’m proud to be launching my own guide service, built on experience, passion, and a deep respect for these incredible fisheries—and I’d be honored to share a day on the water with you.

I had an outstanding experience with Jonah! He was knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about helping people learn the sport. He tailored the trip to our skill level and put us on great water and some even better fish. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced angler, I highly recommend booking a trip with him!!

My dad and I an incredible day on the water with Jonah. We stayed on fish all day and put a ton of trout and bass in the net, with enough action to keep things exciting from the first spot to the last. Jonah has a calm, dialed-in way of guiding—he reads the water quickly, makes smart moves, and explains the “why” behind what you’re doing without ever talking over you. He did a great job tailoring things to everyone’s ability, from small tweaks to casting and presentations to adjusting the pace so each person stayed comfortable and confident. ​ Nothing but good vibes. The day was well organized, and led by a veteran who really knows these lakes and rivers like the back of his hand. It’s the kind of trip you walk away from already talking about when you can get back out there again.
