Go Out to Eat—Way Out

Half & Full Day Gourmet Lunch Trips

This dine-and-fish excursion was created thanks to guest feedback. Our clients loved spending the day on the river, but craved a mid-adventure lunch break to take in the sights and chat with friends or family. Hence, our Gourmet Lunch Trip was born! You’ll enjoy plenty of fishing (half or full day), plus a delicious lunch that recharges you. Chat with us about dietary restrictions in advance, and we’ll do our best to accommodate. Available for 1-3 clients (per boat).
