Many of our guided clients have complimented the shop on the level of service it provides on our programs and guided trips. One particular client had stated that any expectations they had for their trip were exceeded fourfold. While another client had thanked Bob for sharing in the excitement of his son catching the biggest brown trout he had ever caught in all his fishing travels including even club waters. While still others have gone away saying they will never look at a river in quite the same light ever again, after seeing how Bob looks at a river and all its subtleties. Many clients have gone away from a day with Bob saying I learned more in one day with you than any other previous fishing experience I have had.

When Bob has done casting demonstrations and schools, participants and bystanders have been totally caught off guard and are surprised when watching Bob demonstrate casting. Many anglers new to the sport have stated they would never have believed that it was possible to make a fly rod and fly line behave in such a controlled manner with so much finesse. Comments such as we had no idea good casting involved so many skills but the way you present casting and line control in your classes or demos have totally changed the way we perceive what good fly-casting really is. Good fly-casting involves more than just casting out a given length of line with out any thought of loop control, direction, accuracy, gentle presentation, line manipulation and control. Anglers that are new to the sport that attend one of his demos or programs soon realize good casting, gentle presentation, line manipulation and control are integral components in the level of success an angler experiences. Many participants have gone away from these programs with a newfound confidence and enthusiasm for fly-casting and the sport in general. As well as a much better understanding of what is required to become an accomplished caster so they can improve to a point where they will be much more successful in actual fishing situations.
