Captain Kyle planned and executed the perfect fishing day for my 10-yr-old son. We were on a gorgeous stretch of the Umpqua, on a very clean, comfortable boat. Kyle was unfailingly patient with us novice anglers. He shared his knowledge of knot tying, how to choose lures and bait, how to read the river, etc and didn't cuss once despite getting stuck by spines multiple times whilst throwing back the fifty or so fish we caught. We were on top of schools of small mouth bass for almost 8 hours straight and had a grand time fighting and reeling in fish. We also saw a variety of birds of prey and some furry denizens of the river as we cruised between fishing holes. "Ten out of ten, would recommend" as the kids say:)
