Capt. Rolland was an excellent guide he provided great equipment and education on the iguanas that we hunted. The action was consistent throughout the hunt. Capt. Rolland has an eagle eye to spot the iguana’s which keeps the hunt moving along with good numbers of iguanas.

Great time stalking the canal system of Cape Coral with Roland! Very professional guide, informative and knowledgeable. His equipment was top notch from the boat to the high performance Gamo air gun systems. The optics were 100% on! During our two hour trip we located and collected 8 iguana! My first trip hunting iguana but not my last!

Had a ton of fun! Roland was super informative and ethical, shared a lot of info on iguanas and would get us as close to the iguanas as he could for the best shots. We were a bit hesitant as it seemed a little expensive but I think it’s worth it. It was unlike anything I’ve ever hunted

Hey Misty, I am so sorry to hear that this trip was a let down for the group.

We are committed to finding you another trip that is better suited for the group's needs, so please give us a call so we can get you all back out on the water.
