The PRO team has a long reputation for providing a memorable and quality vacation experience. In 1996 PRO was chosen as the first annual "Orvis Endorsed Outfitter of the Year." The award was given to recognize an outfitting business and its unsurpassed expertise demonstrated in providing customers with world-class service. Our operation is built on a commitment to service as well as our passion for the environment and the sport of fly fishing.

Integrity... intelligence ... social skills ... physical and emotional health ... sense of humor ... sense of responsibility ... problem solving skills ... respect for environment ... respect and courtesy toward others ... and work ethic — these qualities are strong in PRO's staff because we see to it.

Yes, every professional guide should be expert in the skills and knowledge associated with the sport. Those are things which can be taught to most willing students. However, we believe not everyone who is an expert in fly fishing or upland bird hunting would necessarily make a good guide. It takes much more than that.

Paul Roos Outfitters hires high quality people, encourages and helps them to improve, and keeps them — for years and years. Vacation with PRO and you'll understand why we work very hard to keep our guides. Listen to our guides, and we hope they'll tell you why they choose to stay with PRO. There is no part of our operation we are more proud of than our professional staff!!

We'd love to list all of our guides on this site, but evil professional headhunters are just lurking out there waiting for PRO to be so careless.Why just two years ago, some unscrupulous and monstrously successful Seattle law firm snatched one of our own right from our midst! Ten years ago we lost another high quality member of our guide staff when she was fraudulently and ceremoniously enticed to marry and have children.

Nay, if you want to know more about our guides, you must call Katie at 1-800-858-3497. Only after convincing verification of your honorable intentions (namely investing your hard earned dollars with PRO) will Katie consider dropping a name.

PRO promises honest effort, courtesy, and expertise. We hope you will give us a visit.

Speaking of guides ... if you're looking for a top notch guide service for bonefish in the Bahamas, we especially recommend Garth Thompson - he can be reached through the Exuma Bonefish Guides Association's website, or by clicking here.
