My brother-in-law and I have had the opportunity to be guided by both Bucko and Brooks. They are…read moreknowledgeable, have good demeanors, and go the extra mile to please. They are also instructive, while being encouraging and not overbearing. Oh, and we caught lots of fish too. They will be our go-to guides from now on.

Darrin has been our long time guide for many years. He has guided myself, and my family on over a…read moredozen Fly Fishing trips. What I believe is most important in a guide, over just catching fish, is Darrin is SAFE and responsible. I trust him to guide on trips across any body of water with the most valuable person in the world to me; my son. That cant be said for all guides. With all of that said...Darrin is suburb at fishing all types of fish species across all types of water. He is patient with new anglers as well as kids. Starting as a new fisherman myself Darrin taught me the skills of Fly Fishing that I have developed over the many years of fishing with him. On top of that Darrin taught my son when he began fly fishing at the age of 12. We have caught more Steelhead, native trout, strippers and bass than I can count. I would highly recommend Darrin for any California, Oregon, Idaho fishing trips. I would not hesitate to contact him for any other trips or states you plan to fish solo or with your family. Darrin I'm happy to be used as a reference for any of your clients. Feel free to have them call me direct.

I was at @lostcoastoutfitters in SF and asked if he had any suggestions for a great guide out of Redding. He immediately hooked me up with Anthony and AC Flyfishing. That was a couple of years ago and I've run a dozen plus trips with AC. Everyone has been valuable as not only do they drop me into great water, but I learn a lot each time I fish with them. Bucko, Jay, Jason, Anthony etc... no weak link in the guide line up. They also coordinate everything for you for hotels and pass through the discounts. Last Saturday I drove up with my three sons for a quick afternoon/evening. #nailedit. Thanks Anthony and guys. Looking forward to the next visit.

I got a card in the mail from Pintail Pool Care and I gave them a call. He (wish I could remember…read morehis name) showed up right when he said he would and even text me 5-minutes before to let me know he was on his way. He looked at the problem I was having with my pump and system. He suggested how I could fix it and gave me the option of fixing it myself or having him come back to do the repair for me. He showed me what part I would need and even text the part to me so I could go get it and install myself. He was only there for about 10-minutes and when I tried to pay him, he said no charge because he was already in the neighborhood and it only took a few minutes. This is the type of service that deserves to be recognized! I've been running this pump 24 hours a day last year because I couldn't even get someone to show up to look at it. He came out and within a few minutes told me exactly what the problem was! All I can say is if you need any services for your pool, I would give Pintail Pool Care a call! They definitely exceeded my expectations!

Impressed overall…read more The good Booked this cruise for our anniversary and it ended up being really fun. It's tough to find new things to do in Redding, it's a small town. We booked and then ended up needing to move our reservation because of the recent heat wave. Todd was very accommodating and changed our date with no problems. Also, my wife is gluten free and they handled that REALLY well and with a great attitude about it. They provided GF salad dressing, garlic bread and croutons on top of delicious salmon that my wife loved. Well done. The scenery was great and it was SO nice to sit back and enjoy the ride with my wife, not having to worry about a boat or food. Our oarsman John was nice. Polite, knowledgeable about the river and lots of animals on the river. The boat was great, comfortable and more private with the sun shade. They had some music provided, selections picked John. The not as good My steak was ok, but not overly amazing. Also, the only drinks available were bottled water. While they do allow you to BYOB or wine, it was something that I thought could have improved. John was really chatty, especially during dinner when he stood right beside us as we ate... Also, it would have been nice to have used our selection of music and maybe I should have asked for that. As I said, overall, really fun. $240 plus tip for steak and salmon, 3 hrs of beautiful scenery and a novel evening in Redding

Marcie took our call at the 11th hour and was very warm and friendly. She agreed to do our engagement shoot with only a few days notice. Her and Jeff showed up with so much enthusiasm and warmth, that we forgot about the sadness of losing our wedding and were able to relish in the here and now. That was such a gift during this Covid crisis, when anxiety can overwhelm at times. The shoot was one of the most memorable days of our relationship, as Marcie and Jeff had so many fun ideas for poses. We got our picture back and were blown away by the brightness and attention to detail, as we are an interracial couple, and the lighting was done in an expert way. We ended up having a small ceremony and used the photos for invitations, and everyone commented on how beautifully the pictures turned out. Marcie and Jeff not only captured beautiful shots, but the genuine love my now husband and I have for one another. Thank you isn't enough, but from our heart to yours, we are always grateful to have met you Marcie and and Jeff. Blessings always.

She was flexible in scheduling and the turnaround time on both the web gallery and final flash drive was amazing.

His North River boat is the best laid out and designed jet boat I have ever fished out of. Extremely confortable and open design makes sure nothing interferes with getting your fish to the boat. Great top of the line tackle makes sure you are matched with the species you are chasing. Myself being left handed he even has the tackle diversity to offer my choice of which hand I want to reel with in both levelwind and spinning tackle. When fishing is tough he knows the secrets to give you the edge on the competition, many developed by him and also local history to keep the day interesting. Great for all ages male and female, he got my daughter hooked on fishing and that gives us something else to share throughout the future. He is honest about the quality of fishing and isn't just looking to take you for a boat ride. He realizes that makes repeat customers and so he can get really busy so book early especially during Salmon season. You can't go wrong and he is always my choice of a fishing guide.

From the first contact with the Stirring, Tim the venue manager was incredibly helpful, prompt in his replies and willing to do what ever was needed to make the space perfect for the event. During set up, Tim was there with his team hanging décor for us and making sure we had all the tables and chairs we needed. They were all very helpful and gracious to work with. Our caterer was thrilled with the kitchen access. The café area was the perfect place to hang out away from the loud music and dancing. The kids LOVED the way it looked and felt. It was a huge hit and is now the hottest new prom venue in town. From an event planners point of view, The Stirring is easy and fun to work with. I will be doing more events there in the future!
