Caleb was absolutely amazing. A thoughtful and responsible communicator and a wonderful host. He tried his best to help us all land a salmon! I do not recommend Captain Experience, however. Their website incorrectly listed prices and availability of people. Also the trip we booked wasn’t event for the area we thought we were going, although we rolled with it.

I had a great time with Caleb. Fishing was tough, but Caleb persisted and we did land a salmon to harvest. He was knowledgeable and professional, and entertaining to talk to. I look forward to fishing with him again. MED
