I spent a weekend with buddies without knowing anything about fly fishing. Thanks to Robert's help and advice, we now know how to fly fish! It was the best weekend I've had in a long time. He explains everything very clearly and answers all questions. I would do it again without hesitation next year. He's the ideal guide for your fly fishing trips. You won't regret it!

Wow! We had an incredible father-son fly fishing trip with Robert Chiasson, a true expert in the field, on July 21 and 22, 2023. It was the first time CJ and Tan (who forgot Jake on us) fly fished. Expert and patient guidance. Breathtaking scenery. As always on a fishing trip, memories are more precious than the catches themselves. We created new unforgettable memories by the river. We will be back, for sure! Thank you Robert for making this moment so special!

Great day on the river with Robert! We caught one fish and saw several. He knows the area very well and it's a pleasure to fish with him. We had a really great time and can't wait to go fishing with him again during our next trip to Nova Scotia.
