From Our Fly Fishing Guests...
Bill Whitesell
"Norm Crisp and the others with Stream Side Adventures are by far the best group of fishing guides I have ever been around. We took a trip with them in Wyoming July 2008. The fishing of course was great but the experience was even better. I had the unfortunate situation of losing the key to my car after an amazing day of fishing. Panicking about how I was ever getting home let alone back to my hotel, Norm let us use one of his vehicle. This was above and beyond what I would have expected. Thanks to Norm’s help, I was able to get a key made and returned to Kansas City on time. And they hosted a camp dinner one evening for us and another group of their clients. A spaghetti dinner cooked and served outdoors by the river, good wine and great comradely was incredible.
I have hired many guides to take me "fishing". With Norm I got an ADVENTURE. I can't thank him enough for his help, hospitality and of course the great fishing in the high country of Wyoming. Hiking Moose trails to navigate a stream is something I'll never forget. Thank you Norm and company for an unforgettable trip and I look forward to our next adventure together. "
Paul Bennetts, Olathe, KS
"Norm is a true predator of brown trout and he approaches fishing on the Current River with all the zeal of a heat seeking missile zeroing in on its target. Norm patient persistence with us was far above and beyond the call of duty as outlined in the fly-fishers Book of Guide Etiquette."
Marvin Feagan, Leawood, KS
"Norm - Just thought I'd let you see what I'm telling my friends about the trip. Fishing was great! We caught over 20 fish and had several others on for a fight before escaping because of the barbless hooks we were using. Our first streamside lunch was smoked chicken caesar salad followed the next day by a large sub sandwich. At trips end, after all was packed away, he broke out a bottle of Cabernet and we drank a toast to the adventure we had."
Ted Bowman, Raytown, MO
"Norm and Georgiana have added to the pleasure of the sport of fly-fishing through their patients, friendship and experience. They are very experience and very willing to share their love of the outdoors and fly-fishing. They do it as friends and not superiors. In fact the clients of STREAM SIDE ADVENTURES are treated more as a large circle of friends than as a customer base."
Jim Harpool and Nancy Pede Harpool, Overland Park, KS
"As the year draws to a close, Nancy and I want to thank you both and tell you how much we have enjoyed fly fishing lessons, the numerous trips to southern Missouri and in particular the Wyoming trip. The trips, the lunches on the river, the wine and food at the end of the day and the dinners we have shared have all been special. The professionalism with a heavy dose of fun sets STREAM SIDE ADVENTURES apart from all our other fishing experiences."
