Captain Will was very accommodating for our 4 fishermen. He took us straight to catch our bait for the day, then to our first stop to wet the hooks. Within 5-10 minutes we had our first fish on. Within an hour we had hit our daily limit.

This was our second trip with Captain Will and it was amazing! We have two young kids and he was attentive and flexible. We asked to do a little bit of an eco tour and a little bit of fishing. All of our boxes were checked. Our 5 year old reeled in two trout at once! We can’t wait for our next trip this summer!

We have gone fishing with Captain Will twice now and had great experiences both times. The first time the fish weren’t bad ting but we caught a ton on the latest trip. Both trips were equally enjoyable. He’s very patient with kids and adults too. We are planning more trips in the future!
