Mr. Bernard primarily guides in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, the state's most scenic section. In the heart of the tourism region, this area contains a myriad of activities and attractions for the non-angler as well.

Fin Fighters base camp is located on Rte. 49 in Thornton, NH on the banks of the cold, crystal clear, cascading, glacier formed Mad River that holds an abundance of brook, brown, and rainbow trout. The base camp primarily acts as a rendezvous site for client and guide. Some clients elect to stay overnight in one of the two White Mountain National Forest Campgrounds (Campton or Waterville Valley) that are just a few minutes from base camp on Rte. 49. Others have elected to stay at one of the numerous motels, inns, cabins, or bed and breakfasts in the general area. The more local clients usually do day trips. The base camp is located within 20 minutes of three of the eight bodies of water that the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department manages as quality fisheries including Profile Lake, Upper Hall Pond, and Sky Pond. These three trout waters are designated as "fly fishing only" ponds and have been heavily stocked with 3+ year old, brood stock brookies. Please refer to the trophy fish awards captured by the clients of Fin Fighters Guide Service, most of which were caught in the above three listed bodies of water.
