For those who don't know, my son is now in full cancer remission!!!! We will be on sitting on pins and needles for several years.
They say at the age of six his cancer should not come back. Fisher is 6 years old and going strong. Thank so many of your
for the prayers and support.
The Falling Springs, Letort, Yellow Breeches, Big Springs are just a few of the many famous trout streams South Central PA has to
offer. Toss in the numerous wild brook trout and stocked trout streams the area has and you have miles upon miles of trout streams
within minutes of each other. Welcome to the Orvis Endorsed Mike Heck’s Trout Guides. I’m Mike Heck the owner. I’ve been
fly fishing for well over tthirty years, and I’ve been a professional guide/instructor for over seventeen years and have been affiliated
with Orvis for ten years. I'm certified by the American Red Cross in CPR and first aid. You may have read some of my articles
in Fly Fisherman Magazine, American Angler, Fish & Fly and Mid–Atlantic Fly Fishing Guide. I'm the author of "Spring Creek
Strategies" I have also been featured in the show called "Road Trip" which is on the Discovery Channel, Europe.
I'm also a pro staff member for Regal vises and pro member of Performance Flies.
In here you will find all sorts
of useful information. If you are planning a trip to South Central Pennsylvania, you can find up-to-date stream reports for the Falling
Springs, LeTort and Yellow Breeches and other lesser known streams. If new to fly fishing I offer beginner classes with equipment
provided by Orvis that will put you on the right track, or maybe you need to learn where to find the wary trout that are found in
our spring creeks. For this, I offer year round guiding on the Falling Springs, LeTort and Yellow Breeches as well as some other excellent
South Central PA streams and will show you how and where to find these trout and techniques and flies used to catch these wild trout.
Come late spring, you can join me and fly fish many other area streams that offer the best native brook and wild
brown trout fishing there is to offer. Many of these streams are hidden in the beautiful Appalachian Mountain range so don't
forget the camera!
I also offer destination trips to the Juniata River where we will fish the Catch and Release
All Tackle Trout Water. The Juniata is one of my favorite streams when I can get away for a day! Or join me on Spring
Creek a fine Central, PA no-kill trout stream. Spring Creek is best known for "Fisherman' Paradise" the public no-wading access
along the hatchery, but has some great water outside this section of stream.
