To keep everyone comfortable, this trip is limited to two anglers.

Caught LOTS of fish!
We had a great time and caught LOTS of fish! Lunch the next day was amazing! Mose was a great guide and got us in just the right spot every time. He was even great with our kids (8 1/2 and newly 5). I highly recommend booking your trip!
