Hi Ray, thanks for the information. Arron was a great guide and instructor. We had fun learning and then practicing what we learned. Jan and I told Aaron we’d like to sign up for some fishing and another lesson with him in May or June next year. 
I’ll be by sometime to pick up a few things so we can practice casting either later this year or next spring. 
Again, thank you. 
Best regards,

Hi Ray,
Arron provided us an incredible day of learning and fun.  He was very knowledgeable, and the cadence of the day was pretty much perfect.  We enjoyed spending some time casting in the park, and the rest of the day on the river was continually informative, fun, and hands-on.
Thanks for everything,

Thanks for putting me in contact with Ken Chandler, great guy and one of the best guides I’ve fished with!
I had a great day yesterday despite the low water, hooking 7 steelhead, broken off twice, lost 3 but managed to land and release two, they’re awesome fish that fought way above their weight. I’m looking forward to my day with Ken on the 23rd.
Enjoyed my brief visit to your shop and hoping to get back in before we leave.
Thanks again

Hey Ray,

Thanks for sending this info out.

Please thank Arron for me for taking me out for a great night out on the water.

I learned a lot about Czech nymphing and certainly picked up a few pointers about my overhand cast and just fly fishing in general!

Good afternoon Ray,

I just wanted to say thanks again for your time last evening. I am really looking forward to the fly fishing instruction course on the 25th :-)

I obtained my Ontario Fishing Outdoors Card and a Sport Fishing Licence (1 Year) from the Ministry of Natural Resources website, so I should be all set to go.

I’m so excited!!

Hi Ray, thanks for posting the pictures. I had a wonderful time out with Arron, he is a great teacher. I was amazed by his ability to read the conditions and insect hatches to predict where the fish would be holding. It’s no surprise he’s had so much success on his fly fishing career. His knowledge of the grand is unbelievable and his passion for the sport is second to none. Thanks for setting this up on such short notice and I can’t wait to book something again for next year.
Sincerely,

June 4th , 2014.
