VerifiedSpent a cold day with Rhen on the Smith River. Took my son out for his 13th birthday to fly fish for the first time. Then was super knowledgeable, patient and put on to a lot of fish. We look forward to getting back out there in the spring.

VerifiedEJ was very patient and even though it was a cold December day (he hooked me up with some bibs to cut the cold and wind) and the bite was slow he was able to put us on some fish. Thank you for the great experience.

VerifiedMy friend and I fished the Cape Fear River for Spotted Bass on November 13th and had an outstanding day. EJ is an excellent guide with an incredible understanding of the river and the fish you can expect to find. The equipment provided is excellent and we had a great day on the water catching lots of Spotted Bass, a huge Blue Gill and a beautiful Yellow Perch. Thanks EJ for a great day!

VerifiedA buddy and I fished the Cape Fear with Rhen. We had a blast! I am a novice fly angler and my buddy had never tried it before. Rhen was an excellent coach and guide, by the end of the day we looked like we knew what we were doing and caught a dozen or so fish each.
