We Deliver Experiences — on our home water and far beyond it. Wherever we take you, the Barefoot way travels with us: wild water over stocked club water, small groups, catch-and-release, and guides who teach the river as you fish it.
Our Home Water
Todd Island & the New River
A designated North Carolina Mountain Heritage Trout Water on the New River, in the High Country of the Blue Ridge — our home water and the heart of everything we do.
New River Headwaters
Above and around the island, the New River’s headwaters thread the corridor between Boone and West Jefferson — smaller, wilder feeder creeks for tight, technical wading and wild-fish days.
The Sky Retreat
An evening-to-morning experience for wedding parties, families, and cabin guests — fireside brews, casting and fly tying, then a guided morning on the New River.
Hosted Destinations
The Driftless
Spring-creek trout and wild brown trout in the ancient, unglaciated coulee country where Minnesota and Wisconsin meet — a hosted Fish & Forage weekend guided in partnership with a local expert.
More destinations on the horizon. Every hosted trip is handled start to finish — you just fish.
