Testimonials

Craig,

I want to thank you again for the fine fishing experience you showed me two weeks ago (March 4). I’ve never had a guide put me onto so many hungry fish in one area! You’re tops in my book, and I’m passing your name to friends in NZ and the US who might find their way to your part of the South Island.
Best of luck to you and your family.

John C, USA
