**Group Leader’s comments:  I’ve been an outfitter for many years, and I have to say that for this particular fishing week of the year, it is “close to the best” if not “THE BEST” fishing we’ve had.  Even though the water level was a little low, the fish were hitting hard and fast!  We really enjoyed our trip and the staff, and it was a true pleasure meeting the new Owner, David McCarthy and look forward to doing future business with him**   Bill Fuchs, Wilderness Taxidermy & Outfitters
