Relaxing fishing trip
While I didn’t catch anything there were plenty of people who did including my husband, it was very relaxing, Ray was great and very on top of helping people or sending someone else to help when he was busy, I fished next to a gentleman who goes fishing with this company a lot. We will definitely be coming back!
