Epic Fishing Experience
My son and I booked an evening fishing trip with Zac on July 7. Sarah was responsible for the booking details and she was quick to respond to answering all questions with clarity, patience, and kindness. Zac greeted us with a warm, welcoming smile and asked our goals for the fishing trip. He made my son, who was new to fishing, feel very comfortable by letting him know that it was okay to get a line snagged, lose a lure, or break something. His calm demeanor and engaging personality set my son up to succeed. Zac got a feel for who we were and then personalized the trip to us. We had the good fortune of seeing loons and a bald eagle family. He poured as much knowledge as he could into us of how and where to fish, different techniques and lures as well as driving the boat and boat safety. My son caught a lot of fish and his smile and excitement was priceless. Zac generously gave my son one of his fishing poles to use while we were in the area. He is a walking encyclopedia of Lake Placid and its beauty and history. Zac is more than a fishing guide. He is a conservationist, a steward of the lake and region, a mentor to young kids wanting to learn about fishing and boating, and one of the best teachers I have ever seen. His love of his hometown was evident and contagious. I recommend Zac to anyone from beginning fishermen to expert anglers as well as nature enthusiasts. We were so lucky to have Zac share his little piece of heaven with us.
