Why Choose Redwood Coast for Your Fishing Trip?
There are a lot of professional fishing guides in Northern California. So why choose Redwood Coast Fishing over all the others? Here's why:
Mike Stratman, fishing guide
Passion for Fishing
I wake up excited to hit the water everyday. When a big fish hits the net, my knees are shaking along with yours! The passion I have for my work is reflected in the energy spent on providing my clients a memorable day on the water. I will go the extra mile to see that you have a great day.
Whether that means traveling to out of the way places to leave the crowds behind, or fishing late on a tough day, I take no shortcuts.
Courtesy and Patience
I take both novice and hardcore fisherman fishing and I'm good at reading what a given client wants out of the day. Some people want to fish hard, with me coaching them every step along the way. Others desire a more leisurely day floating down the river. Over my time guiding I have become very adept at giving clients what they need from a day to make it most enjoyable for them.
Attention to Detail
Obviously, attention to detail helps in being a productive fisherman. New line, sharp hooks, fresh bait and clean boats are the product of a fishing guide with attention to detail. All this shows how much I care about your day on the water. I once heard a veteran guide say "whoever cares the most, is the best on the water". I think this is an accurate statement.
Good Times
I'm fun! While I know when it's time to focus and be serious, I also know we're fishing and it should be a fun experience. There's nothing wrong with a little laughter and excitement!
