A Great Outing with My Grandson

3/4 Day Trip on April 20, 2026 • 1 adult • 1 child

Although we had tough weather, Captain Jeff got us on fish. Big smallmouth!
but the special part was his interaction wjth my 9 year old grandson, a novice fisherman. very patient in making sure he advanced his skills throughout the day, at the same time Jeff hooked up fish for my grandson to reel in, which kept his interest level sky high throughout the day. Great job.

Thank you for putting us on some really good fish today, but more importantly, thank you for all the education you give us about how to catch fish on that river, that is my sole reason for booking the trips with you, I know you’re going to not only put us on fish, but the education and fishing tips we get from you are priceless, can’t wait to do it again in a few weeks
