Q&A with Christian, Owner And Full-Time Guide

When and how did you first develop a passion for your work?

I have always been an outdoorsman, since the very first time I went down the river on my kayak I was hooked, no pun intended. I am known as one of the best anglers in the area, and have caught well over 50 trophy fish in the local rivers, I am a certified expert master angler and know every inch of the rivers I travel both top and bottom

As the old adage says, "Stuff happens." What training do you and your staff have to stay ahead of the unexpected?

All staff [members] keep a First Aid kit on their kayak and are First Aid and CPR certified and up to date on aquatic life saving. [They] also are required to make trips after storms to ensure that there are no new obstacles blocking the river

What is the one feature of your business that you're most proud of?

Showing customers a look at [the] wildlife they dream of.

Such a beautiful way to spend a few hours on the river! Christian has decades of experience on and along the Mattaponi and takes great care of his groups. Thanks for a memorable morning for my mother and I!

Very relaxing and enjoyable. My kids loved it and I was very surprised that my arms didn't kill me the next day from paddling. :)
