Had an awesome day! Learned so much from Ron and am really enjoying his book!

Best Surfcasting Lesson Ever! Hi Ron. Thanks for a great day of casting. Cant believe you held the attention of a 10 year old for so long we appreciate the time you took to let the little guy learn not only how to cast and work different lures but the fly casting bonus, as well! He learned so much. Thank you for the memories that will last a lifetime. The McLanes

Ron Arra had my 12 year old son casting over 100 yards in about 30 minutes. He is incredibly knowledgeable, and broke down the surf casting form and technique into easy-to-learn bites. We spent two and a half hours on the water, after some brief explanation of knots, lures and gear. My son was thrilled and couldn't believe how far he could cast so quickly into the lesson. Then, after he was casting consistently, Ron worked with my son on lure retrieval, and the proper use of the different lures. Top Waters, Needle fish, Plugs, etc. Soon, he was working lures back in the surf like an expert. As a parent, it was extremely gratifying to see so much progress so fast. After the lesson was over, Ron autographed a copy of his book and gave it to my boy. My son can't wait to head out again, and he couldn't be more excited about saltwater fishing and surf casting. Thanks to Ron for a great morning, and a lot more fishing for us in the future. Todd B. Natick, MA

We caught lots of stripers and can't wait to fish Ron him again soon to get us some real lunkers. Ron is a great guy with lots of fun stories and teaching advise. If you want to fish some of the best-kept secrets on the Cape, look him up!

I booked with Ron not having any experience with surf casting or ocean fishing. I grew up fly fishing for trout and have avoided surf fishing for the 3 years I've lived in Massachusetts because I never had any idea how to start. From the beginning, Ron set great expectations for what to expect - I learned how to cast further with less effort and how to read the water. While this trip is not about catching a fish (the casting lessons and fishing advice are more than enough), I was lucky enough to catch my first striper! I left my lesson feeling so much more confident about fishing in the surf, how to read water, and gear recommendations. Thank you Ron!

Blown away! After fishing the Cape’s waters for over 50 years, how have I not met Ron Arra? I’ve been blessed to have fished with many of the northeast’s fishing GOAT’s .. Striper Joe Eldridge, George Seman, Charlie Mayo, Les Shwom, Ron Crisp, Eric Johnson, Mike Doak, Cullen Lundholm, Diogo Godi, Jimmy Nunes, The Tilton Brothers,Doug Lindley, Willie Hatch, BadDog Mike, Ronnie Cobb, John Bunar, even Neil Larson of OTW, etc. etc. Then along comes Ron Arra, WOW, what a catch! He spent 4 plus hours instructing and patiently fine tuning my conventional casting skills, like the consummate professional he is. He’s a master with skills and finesse not to be missed, just watching him cast is like watching a bird of prey on the hunt. Couldn’t be more knowledgeable or personable. Worth every penny of the lesson and way more! What a treasure right in our own Cape Cod back yard! Amazing Guy! Thanks OTW and Jimmy Fee video for highlighting this Legend in our time!
