Johnny Buser
I started Firl Outfitters because I am passionate about fly fishing. Growing up in Winneconne, WI, fishing was not just a pastime, it was a way of life, a food source for your family and the community around you. I took that passion to the west where I studied mountain rivers and lakes. As a guide and a student of mother nature for 16 years I took every opportunity to get off the ranch and off my horse to fish the areas around me, including Wyoming, Utah, California, and Montana. Although my Grandpa Buser was the fishing guide and everyday outdoorsman it was my Grandpa Firle who inspired my love of fly fishing. He once said that in order to be a complete fisherman, you need to study your surroundings, and the science and the art of this sport. The easiest way to do this is with a fly rod in your hand. I couldn't agree more. I love all the aspects of fly fishing, and even when the fish have exhausted your patience, the meditation of your cast will leave you feeling whole again.....even if it was just one good cast that day...lol
Your Guide and Captian,
Johnny Buser

I’m a Wisconsin native, I‘ve had a pole in my hand for as long as I can remember fishing with my dad and uncle. I love fishing just as much as I love showing others to fish. Guiding has always been a dream of mine. I'm an avid trout fisherman that knows just about every stream and river in Wisconsin. The river is a magical place to be and I can’t wait to share it with you. I can’t wait to be your guide!
