What To Bring

Your hands will be ocupied the entire time. You won’t be able to carry a water bottle. Bring a backpack.

  • Polarized sunglasses

  • Plenty of beverages to stay hydrated - bring a backpack. You won't be able to carry your water and fish. Stated again because people don’t listen

  • Shade providing hat

  • Fishing gear and flies if you want to use your own if usable and appropriate for that location

  • Fishing license for that jurisdiction.

Please leave narcotics whether legal or not and booze at home. Please arrive early, sober, and ready to go. Rob isn’t saying the reason the lady that ate mushrooms before fishing caught a rare fish.

Never show up for fishing with a hangover whether Buster wants to fish or not.

The $100 deposit fee will not be refunded when cancelling within 48 hours of a trip.

Broken Rod | Rod Repair policy

A client may be requested to pay a repair fee when carelessly breaking a rod. This does not apply to normal accidents.

If a client blatantly disregards the rod's safety by repeatedly snapping a rod to undo a snag, pushing the rod into a wall/dock/debris, stepping on a rod, throwing a rod, bending the rod around the outboard while the fly is snagged in a Lilly pad, walking with the rod tip along asphalt or similar.

These are some of the examples of how clients have broken a rod.

Fishing license REQUIRED

Virginia Freshwater License

Washington DC License is required for Virginia shorelines between Chain Bridge and the Wilson Bridge when fishing the Potomac shoreline along the George Washington Memorial Parkway.
