Charity is always excited to show her home waters to her many clients and takes special pleasure helping anglers catch their first trout on fly.

Charity also spends plenty of time on the water every year outside of Southern Appalachia. She hosts fly fishing trips to destinations in the Rockies and Belize. She loves spending time on the water with her husband Ian and their daughter Willow.
