US Army Veteran
This trip was a nostalgic, camaraderie-building and mainly an eventful endeavor as we all bonded over fishing and our shared military paths. This trip garnered newfound friendships we shared and will forever relive through pictures, stories, and memories.
US Army/Air Force Veteran
I often felt irritated, stressed, lonely, paranoid, and untrustworthy, and my list was long. At least, that was until I had an opportunity to experience an Alaskan fishing excursion with Greg Williams and other vets. This fishing group has helped me to reconnect with my family and friends with a better perspective.
Disabled Veteran
It was just more than a fishing trip. It was a refuge to fellowship with comrades and escape the everyday horrors of serving this country during War and Peace times. Nothing has helped me more to overcome my silence and isolation than that fishing trip to Alaska. I have gained my confidence back, and now I am ready to travel to other places I always want to visit.

Greg took me and my son along on the fishing trip in Ninilchik, AK May 2021. That break from the hustle and bustle of life was much needed. The area was so serene, and the landscape was breathtaking. Attending the trip allowed us to rest, reset, and recharge. This is a must attend trip. We look forward to attending again in the future.
