Swooning Loon is proud to offer guided trips on our local waters here in the Chippewa National Forest and beyond. When on a Home Waters trip it is critical to be prepared both with equipment and education. You are expected to follow directions, wear all necessary safety gear, participate with equipment transportation and setup (Swooning Loon will be doing more of the heavy lifting). We do supply most of the equipment for these adventures but person items such as; rain gear, sunglasses, hats, and all other personal clothing and sun protection, is not supplied. We do have life jackets but if you are wanting a perfect fitting PFD then we highly suggest bringing or purchasing your own. All participation in trips offered by Sand Lake Lodge or Swooning Loon Fly-Fishing are at your own risk. 

Deposits:

• For all guide trips we require a 50% deposit at time of booking.
• Any and all cancellations/reschedule must be made at least 30 days prior to scheduled date. If within the 30 days we cannot reschedule or cancel your trip.
• We hope that you understand the necessity for this policy to ensure that we can continue to run our trips and classes on a sound financial basis. We realize that emergencies do happen and please know that we will make every effort to re-book your spot, but if we can’t, we must uphold this policy.
• We do pride ourselves on the honesty and professionalism of our guides and services…therefore, it does not behoove us to take you adventuring when conditions are not right. Your safety is of great importance to us and at time the weather is just agreeable for our trips
• In the case of weather cancellations, which are exclusively at the guides discretion, we will try to re-book you for another day or another time. If we cannot do that to your approval, you will be entitled to a full refund of your deposit/payment.
• We cannot be held responsible for lost, stolen or broken equipment while on a guide trip with one of our guides. All equipment can usually be provided and if you bring your own gear, it is at your own risk.
