After You Book a Trip...

You must have a fishing license to fish at any of the locations where we go. You can buy your license at many locations (fly shops; sporting goods stores; Walmart; etc.) or online through one of the links below. If you don't know the area, we can recommend locations where you can purchase fishing licenses over the counter. Depending on which waters you are going to be fishing on your trip, it may be possible to buy a license on the way to the river. Make sure to let your guide know if you were unable to buy your fishing license before the day of your trip.

What To Discuss With Your Guide:
At the beginning of your trip, there are a few things you should make sure your guide knows about. The better informed your guide is - the better your day will be. You should let your guide know what your experience and fitness levels are and if you have any special requests. This will enable your guide to better tailor your trip to be a perfect fit for you.

Tip/Gratuity For Your Guide:
If you have a good day and your guide met your expectations, it is the standard custom to take care of them with a tip. They will really appreciate it! (see question 4 on the FAQ's page for more details).
