Waiver and safety acknowledgement

Guests may be asked to complete a passenger and fishing waiver before departure.

The waiver covers boating, weather, fishing tackle, wildlife, physical readiness, falls, drowning, and other risks associated with fishing, package trips, and lodging.

Questions about the waiver should be raised before the trip date so the crew can help the group prepare.
