Even trying new gear is easier while fishing with someone who knows how to use it. With a guide by your side, you can climb the fishing curve more quickly than you might imagine.
Jed is fully insured, qualified in first aid and CPR and a member of the Nova Scotian Guide Service. His goal is to put you in place to catch a fish, help you catch it, and more importantly, cultivate a love for the sport.
Join Jed the Fishing Guide for fun and adventure, and to create your own fishing tales.
