The group wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to catch something. We moved 3 times and each location was better than the previous. The staff was very helpful during the trip. They helped my kids bait their hooks when I couldn’t get to them. They helped explain what the different fishes were that were being caught. We finished the trip catching around 2 dozen trouts and they offered to clean and fillet the fish for a dollar each. Our whole group of 11 each caught something and had a fun time. E definitely will look at doing it again in the future.
