-The day with Ben was one of my best fishing outings ever. My wife gifted me and my son-in-law with a full day. Between us, we landed a couple dozen trout. My first catch of the day was a 24" brown trout, setting the tone for the rest of the float. Ben provided the equipment and flies, kept us set up and provided helpful suggestions as to where to cast, etc. His easy manner and low key personality made the the trip a real pleasure. Highly recommended! Jake Levinson, Vermont
-I have used Ben as a guide for two trips. Ben really knows trout. I have found that each time I have gone with him I have learned so much about fly fishing and use the skills I learn to continue to catch fish. He is really ethical about catch and release and is a licensed guide which is really important for the care of what he is providing. I know a lot of big guide companies exist, but Ben being the only one in his company means you really get quality control. My only complaint is that I caught more and bigger fish with Ben then any of the other times I have been fishing. It is a little hard to go back to normal fishing after a day with Ben. I would highly recommend Ben, and it is well worth the money to go fishing with him. Karl, Vermont
-Ben is a great guy and a great guide. My wife had never been fly fishing before and we wanted Ben to help her learn to cast and help her catch a couple of fish. We were wading so not a drift boat trip. Ben not only helped my wife learn how to fly fish, but he helped me learn a new style of fishing (tight leader nymphing) which I had never done before, and we both caught fish. Ben was good with both a veteran and a novice fisherman, and we had some good laughs as well. A half day trip was just the right length for us. Cheers, Cliff, Connecticut
-Ben is a great dude and I really enjoyed both my trips with him. Unfortunately water levels were to low when I was in town so we couldn't do a float trip. I ended up doing a walk and wade one day and a salmon trip the next. We caught fish on both. Ben knows his stuff, provides good equipment, and works hard to make the trip a good time for his clients. I would definitely use Ben again if I am in the area. Alex Vardaman, Texas
-Howdy- Ben, we had a great time….and you were terrific. You gave us a lot of knowledge mixed in with your “local flavor”… We were very, very happy with your service. We would be happy to sing your praises any time. You’ll do very well for yourself. Have a great summer, and good luck with your new baby in September! Brian Hobart, New Hampshire
-Ben, Had a great time drifting the Winooski with you. You put a lot of work into making sure our day was fun. I learned a lot about trout and enjoyed your stories. I still dream of that 18" Rainbow that I couldn't keep still long enough for a picture. Thanks, Andy Wolfe, New York
-Hi Ben, Thanks for the picks and thanks again for a great time. I learned a lot. Ron Paquette, Owner/ Guide, ifishnh.com
