Gus did a great job staying in touch and working out the specific details for our trip. I am not a very skilled fisherman, and he was patient and ready to teach me. He helped me improve my skills, and I was able to catch a lot of fish!

Been fishing with Gus for a couple years now. He has taught me everything I know about fly fishing and more. While knowledge of the sport and technique is impressive, it’s his level of enthusiasm, patience and positivity that always makes for a successful trip.

VerifiedWe booked a 3 hour summer special advertised online, it says 6-9am but guide was only available in the evening. Gus reached out and we were able to workout an evening that worked for both. We were visiting from CO and both our boys are avid trout fly fisherman, and we’re very excited to catch some bass on the fly. Unfortunately the fish weren’t cooperating, but both boys had a blast and would go again. Would highly recommend Captain Gus!

Gus took someone with minimal fly fishing experience and, had me catchin fish left and right within a hour. Despite the poor weather conditions we still managed to make it happen and, have a great day. Gus is also very charismatic and, the captain of his own boat. Seriously an out of this world experience.
