Rick was great. We were tied to a one day trip due to work and the weather wasn’t great. Rick knew we couldn’t get out as far as we wanted safely and he worked hard to get us on fish of some kind even in suboptimal conditions. We didn’t catch a lot but we did catch fish. And Rick did his best to get us on the fish.
