      "answer": "We take safety seriously. All clients wear wading belts, carry headlamps (red light only to preserve night vision), and fish familiar water we've scouted during daylight. We stay within wading depth and never fish alone. We've guided night trips for 13 years without incident.",

      "answer": "The Hexagenia hatch (late June-July) is the main event — size 6-8 mayflies that bring the biggest browns to the surface. We also fish mouse patterns, giant stonefly imitations, and large caddis. Night fishing is big-fly fishing.",
