John and his crew are top tier guides! Felt safe and comfortable the whole time! On top of that we had a blast. It’s definitely harder than it seems but once you get the hang of it the adrenaline doesn’t stop. Can’t wait to try it again.

I am not a bowfisherman. Captain John hooked me up with a very nice and easy to use bow, put me on the fish, and made sure that I got some decent fish on the boat. Will definitely return with my family.
