awesome fishing, awesome poles

Beautiful views and a smooth ride down the river fishing. AJ is amazing. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a fishing guide.
May 29, 2025
Spent the entire week calling, never even got a reply that they were busy or had no openings. Lost out on other opportunities. Reply to your snide, conceited reply: I’m sure glad I laid your true character out for future customers to see. Please take this to heart: get a cellphone instead of a land line so you know when people are looking for you. It’s not 1995 anymore.

Such a wonderful guide AJ is! Safe, professional, helpful, honest and fun!!!

We just popped into the store to ask a few questions and buy a few things but the dude was so knowledgeable and friendly that I felt compelled to leave a review. Highly recommend this place.
