Chris is an excellent, no pressure guide. His calm demeanor, and effort to put you on fish, makes the intense act of trying to catch giant tarpon on a fly very enjoyable while also setting you up for success. Chris believes in the idea that the guide is there to help you be a better fisherman and we certainly found that to be true.
Capt. Chris Barron worked hard to accommodate our fishing trip. He worked hard and tried various methods to locate and hook fish. Capt. Barron is very personable and witty. A trip with Capt. Barron will be an enjoyable experience for everyone.
