Meet Experienced Angler and Bristol Native Jimmy Cheers
Jimmy has a lifetime of experience on the waters around Bristol, particularly the SoHo. He is a third generation Cheers that has spent a good majority of his time floating the South Holston and Watauga searching for wild browns and big rainbows. In other words Jimmy grew up on our local waters and he knows the river better than most of the big brown trout living in the SoHo! After college he continued his career as a fly fisherman by working for the Orvis Company for over 5 years, which allowed him to travel and fish rivers all over the US.
In 2016 Jimmy decided it was time to take his passion for fly fishing and turn it into a career on the water. In order to expand his skill base, Jimmy attended the Western Rivers Guide School in Victor Idaho to become a full time guide based out of Mountain Sports Ltd. Jimmy also manages the Mountain Sports Limited fly shop. Interested in learning more? Book a trip or just talk fly fishing with him!
Experience the best natural settings Bristol has to offer and learn from one of the area’s most accomplished fishermen. Add a full or half day fly fishing excursion to any stay.
