Words cannot begin to describe what an incredible program this is! I was fortunate enough to go with a friend who also is a survivor. From registration to the farewell it was an absolutely positive experience. I had never fly fished before and I ended the trip catching the biggest fish thanks to remarkable guides who volunteer their time as well as their boats. To get men to share their innermost experience, strength and hope on their individual battle with cancer is a spiritual moment I will carry with me forever. I’m deeply moved by this program and the incredible individuals involved in it.

I feel fortunate to have spent a couple days fishing and hanging out with a great group of survivors. The group consisted of a wide variety of men who had a great sense of humor despite cancer and all the unfortuante things that go with it. This organization is truly wonderful, and it's difficult to sum up how incredible the expereince was -just as a fly on the wall. It seemed many (probably all) of the participants left with a new sense of support, life long friends, and great fish stories. "Be well, Fish on!"
