Fishing with Jay on Lake Shasta last week was the best fishing trip I’ve been on on years- Very knowledgeable, on time, knew all the Hotspots, and the schedule was exactly as we had asked for. Would definitely tell Family & Friends about this experience, as we caught tons of fish & had a blast the whole time. Will definitely be booking another trip with Jay soon, as I want to bring some other friends next time to experience what a smooth outfit he is running- nothing but fun & Big Fish !!!!
We had a great trip to Buck's Lake and caught many rainbow trout and kokanee salmon. Jay had a few lures that were irresistible! Great boat, professional guide and a ton of fun. We will definitely be back.
