“Cole was great! My 14 year old son and I went and it was wonderful. We both caught fish and learned techniques. Super convenient. We were picked up at our hotel, they had all the gear, all we had to do was show up. I’ve never fished before. There was some amount of trekking to get to the fishing area fyi. Not a big deal but be aware it wasn’t just showing up at a lake and fishing. Highly recommend. Beautiful scenery too.”
