I've always thought Jim Thorpe was a Really Cool Town!

The History. The Architecture. The People.

But Most of all, The Lehigh River!

So I moved there on April fools day 1995.

And have lived Happily Ever After!!

Jim Thorpe Fishing Company was started after 12 years of extensive research on the Beautiful Lehigh River and its tributaries.

Only then, after many hundreds of hours of fishing was it possible to offer a Competent and Professional Guide Service.

Your Guide Paul Healy is a Skilled Fly Fisherman with more than 35 years experience on East Coast Rivers,Streams and Creeks. Saltwater too!

I have fished from The Great Smokey Mountains in Tennessee, to Baxter State Park in Maine. From Cape Hatteras National Seashore in North Carolina, to Cape Cod National Seashore in Massachusetts.

I offer flexible trips that can be customized to suit your schedule and fishing needs.
