Adventure Fishing
Dedicated trips are for the dedicated angler. These trips are either full or multi-day and require advance planning and preparation; as well as advanced angling skills and good physical conditioning from the participants. Dedicated trips are designed to be both mentally and physically challenging. They are not designed to be leisurely or luxurious. The likelihood of a giant trophy for a social media post is slim to none, and the likelihood of being wet, tired, cold, hungry, uncomfortable and maybe even skunked is fairly high. So why book a dedicated trip? Because you want to do what we do. You want to know what the guides do on their “day off.” Because you want to “suffer” as we do. You want to be challenged as part of the experience. You want to earn it. You want to make a memory rather than document an outing. You don’t need the validation of likes or comments at the end of the day, you need a tired and weary satisfaction knowing that you met a challenge, did your best, and look forward to the next beating.
