Those that know him already know what a great guy Jay is. So this is nothing new to you. For those of you who have never been to Baja and are considering a week chasing roosters and dorado, this is why you should consider booking through Jay. I'm not putting down the other outfitters that fish the Las Arenas area. I'm sure they are good as well based on reports I have read. I just don't have any experience using their services.
Yesterday, the day before I was scheduled to leave Savannah, Ga. for my annual trip to Baja, I received word that my Father had died. Knowing that his funeral would be held during my first week in Baja, I immediately emailed Jay and explained why I would be unable to arrive as scheduled. Like the fool I can sometimes be, I had not purchased any type of trip insurance (a discussion for another time.)
Jay's response: "Richard, get your airline reservations changed, and I'll take care of the rest." And he did. I was able to move my arrival into Baja back by a week and Jay was able to arrange for a Captain, a room change and alternative transportation from Cabo to La Paz. Not once was there a mention of Trip Cancellation Policies. That, in my opinion, is going above and beyond what is required.
Jay, being the humble guy that he is, will probably not approve of my posting this. But I don't care. He'll forgive me, hopefully, when I buy him dinner at Rancho Viejo or Jonathan's. Hell, I might even let him have the bow of the panga if he decides to go fishing with me.
Thanks again, Jay. This is why I fish with you.
