Were you pleased with your guide(s) customer service, communication skills, professionalism, work ethic, and general fishing knowledge? If not, please share why.

-Â Yes. Complete Tarpon fishing experience. You can fish for numbers in the mangroves and lagoons or go hunting for bigger fish, cruising in schools. We did top water flies and streamers. The mangrove forests are spectacular. It's like stepping back in time. No houses, people or boats, just mangroves, water and fish. I loved it.
