Chris truly cares about his customers. Chris isn’t here for just the business he truly enjoys fishing and getting into the sport. Your skill level is irrelevant because he’ll teach you what you need to know. My son and I never fished in salt water before. Will book again. We had a great time and he’s safe about it too.
