The Day of the Trip
Getting ready for a day of guided fishing with McDonald Fishing is easy! We provide all of the necessary equipment, including rods, reels, and tackle. Be sure to have your fishing license with you; see below for more information on purchasing a license. Dress comfortably and in layers, as it can be cooler in the morning and warmer in the afternoon. Don't forget to bring sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses to keep yourself protected from the sun. If you have any questions about what to bring, simply contact us and we will be happy to provide you with additional information. We look forward to having a great day on the water with you!
