Courteous and Patient Fishing Guide

Half Day Trip2 adults

Stuart was patient, courteous and very knowledgable about all aspects of fishing. My wife and I booked this adventure as part of our anniversary trip. We have experience fishing but never fly fishing. He was patient with us, explained how to use the equipment well, and spent time teaching us all the techniques. He treated us with respect and made sure my wife feel very comfortable and safe when treking the back country. I would highly recommend Stuart for all experience levels as his knowledge is extensive. We didn’t catch anything but that was more due to our inexperience with fly fishing and not due to his knowledge. Highly recommend his for anyone wanting to get out and fish.

Response from Captain

Michael it was absolute pleasure having you and your wife out and celebrating your anniversary and Father’s Day all in one with you. We definitely need to do that backcountry camping trip that we were talking about.  cheers Stuart
