5.00We had an amazing time with Catch a Fish. Olly and Sanne were fantastic with communication, especially when we had to reschedule due to the weather — they went above and beyond to fit us in around our available dates. The trip itself was incredible. Our 3-year-old had the time of his life and was absolutely thrilled to catch a rainbow trout! Beautiful scenery with snow falling on the mountains made it extra special. A great experience on the water and one we wouldn’t hesitate to book again if we’re ever back. Thank you!
