    My husband and I went out fishing with Ryan last night for his birthday, what a great guy and great experience. Super patient, funny and knowledgable about East Fork! 100 percent will be returning customers!!

    Captain Ryan did an excellent job teaching the littles as well as teaching me about Active Live. It was a great trip, 104 total with 80 keepers. He was very good with the kids, and an hour in, they wanted to bait their own hooks. He sat down beside them and taught them. We had a blast. It was a great family trip that made great memories!

    Best fishing guide in the Cincinnati, Tri-State area. We went out with Ryan last month, fishing for crappie on Eastfork Lake. I've fished my whole life and never considered hiring a guide for any place other than Cumberland, Norris, or Lake Erie. Ryan has changed my mind. So much so, that I have another trip booked with him this coming weekend. It's my excitement for this weekend that made me remember that I wanted to leave a review for him. This guy knows what he's doing. If you want a fun day of fishing, with a knowledgeable guide who will do everything he can to put you on the fish, book a trip with Ryan. Just don't book too many trips because I plan on making this a regular thing.
