Meet Jon Miller
Jon Miller is a professional who, among his peers, is considered one of the top guides on the White river. He has over 20 years of experience fishing the tailwaters of the White and North Fork Rivers. Jon offers guided fishing trips with artificial, light tackle, bait, or fly fishing, in short any legal method! It's your choice.

Jon is respected as big trout guide. He was given the master angler award by In Fisherman magazine for the catch and release of a 33-inch German Brown trout. During trout fishing tournaments he finishes in the money.

It's always a thrill to catch a rainbow this size

Fish Low And High Waters
Jon fishes the upper and lower White River, and the North Fork river. He puts in where fishing will be best that day for his customer's desired fishing experience. Jon knows these rivers have rapidly changing water levels that can affect how a boat must be handled. When high water conditions occur, swift currents must be handled with skill. Low water conditions need a watchful eye to dodge rocks and other snags. While customers are fighting fish a good guide will keep your boat properly positioned, especially in strong currents. Jon does not fish, he handles the boat and attends to customer needs.


Equipment
Jon's Guide Service has an excellent combination of equipment tailored to give you a fishing trip you'll remember for a lifetime!  All boats and equipment are modern, clean, and in good repair. When you fish with Jon personally, you'll fish from a 2000 model Supreme Jon Boat with an aerated livewell.
This popular Supreme model is engineered and designed specifically for tailwater trout fishing. Removable swivel seats make it easier to walk through the boat. Jon outfits all fishing in his boat with a quality Shimano reel and a G-Loomis rod, which is about $500 per person in tackle.

Shore Lunches
Fried onions and potatoes, private recipe river beans, bacon sandwiches, trout fried in bacon fat, and soda  - that's what's cookin at Jon's! At noon we'll pull up on the bank for a rest and a good old-fashioned river shore lunch put on in grand White River tradition. All you need do is pull up a chair and relax while we do the work. The pleasure is all ours!

Children welcome!

Children Welcome
It's remarkable how quickly children learn to trout fish. Jon taught his own daughter, 10 year old Kelly, how to fly cast. Kelly now wades about the river casting and catching trout like a pro! Jon enjoys families with kids and always welcomes the opportunity to educate children on the finer points of trout fishing. So if you or your group want to include children in your float trip experience, they are most welcome!

Groups
Jon's has conducted group guided float trips for many years. We understand how to coordinate the numerous little details needed for a smooth group trip. We provide tackle, shore lunches, transportation, and guides in our group plans. We have found over the years that the best way to plan a great group trip experience is for you to just call us. Tell us what you'd like to experience. Once we know your needs we'll put together a trip customized just for you. If it takes more than one call, that's fine! We'll help you as much as you require in organizing your trips. At end of day you'll discover you'll get more for your money with Jon's!

Safety
Safety is always the top priority with Jon's. Safe casting, proper river navigation, weather considerations, and proper river wading technique are all part of the many aspects of making your trip a safe and comfortable experience. We are insured and licensed. As members of the Independent Guide's Association we practice a professional code of ethics which we believe best preserves the fishery and the fishing experience.
