“I went on a trip to the Hazel Creek area of Swain County with Heath. It was an amazing trip! He is very knowledgeable about the history of the mountains. I loved learning about the people who once called the area home and seeing the remains of their old homesites, businesses, and school. Heath even showed us the old basketball goal! He made sure everyone was comfortable and safe during the outing. If you're looking for an opportunity to see the Smoky Mountains up close and personal this is the guide service you need to use. From fishing to history to friendliness they have it all!”

I couldn’t recommend Heath of Hyatt Creek Outfitters more for his customer service, local knowledge, and fishing expertise. After inquiring, he spoke with me on the phone to tailor our day to what I wanted to learn and do. In a few short hours, he took me from having never held a fly rod to catching rainbows and browns. I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher and guide. Along the way, he shared lots of local lore and history. You can tell he has a passion for fishing and the region he calls home. Thanks, Heath, for an amazing day. I will definitely be looking forward to our next trip!

Heath took three of us out and we had a blast. He and his partner were very knowledgeable of the area and put us on some fish. Two of us have never even held a fly rod before and they had us casting like a pro!
