There is something very special about getting to share and teach someone a growing passion that they originally kindled in you.  Having the chance to get my Dad on a few bronzebacks is always special as we didn’t really have access to them growing up in coastal NC.  I’ve got open dates in May if you’d like to get out.  910-232-7350  #RiverRedemption #gratefulguides #AlphaAngler #snaglertacklecompany #simmsfishing #castfishingco #smithoptics #g3jetboat #susquehannariver #juniatariver

Smallmouth bass caught while fishing in Harrisburg

Special Moments on the Susquehanna with Family

May is a wrap here at River Redemption and it was another very successful month for our clients.  Some may and some may not know but my educational background and career is in Chemical Engineering.  That analytical nature drives me to focus, sometimes hyper critically, on fishing.  This May has been extremely wet and a few times what I thought I knew as a “sure thing” with a rise and high water taught me that on the Susquehanna and Juniata rivers there are no absolutes and there is a nuance to every situation.  That’s what keeps me going, continuing to learn and grow as a guide and fisherman to give it everything I have to make sure our clients have the best experience possible.  June is shaping up nicely and after the bronzebacks get a bit of a respite from the spawn the spinnerbait and topwater action should be🔥.  I have open dates in June and July and would love to have you aboard.  910-232-7350  #RiverRedemption #gratefulguides #AlphaAngler #snaglertacklecompany #simmsfishing #castfishingco #smithoptics #g3jetboat #susquehannariver #juniatariver
