Terms & Conditions
DEPOSIT AND PAYMENT INFORMATION
The following terms and conditions apply to all offers or trips booked and organized by Cattaraugus Creek Outfitters (CCO FLYFISHING). Please read these terms and conditions carefully. Booking a trip, making a deposit, or making a final payment shall be considered acknowledgment that the customer has read and accepted all the terms and conditions contained herein.
MEDICAL, TRAVEL AND TRIP INSURANCE – HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Many deposits and final payments for trip packages are non-refundable so it is highly recommended that you purchase medical, travel or trip insurance if you must cancel, postpone, or reschedule your trip for any reason. Please be aware that this is the only way that CCO FLYFISHING can assist you with compensation for a cancelled trip. Customers are solely responsible for purchasing medical, travel or trip insurance and it is not included in any quote or invoice from CCO FLY FISHING. All medical, travel or trip insurance companies are third party service providers.

In light of COVID-19 or any other similar virus, we do know that many standard trip insurance policies will not cover cancellations or offer compensation due to pandemics, epidemics or fear of travel, which is why “Cancel For Any Reason” policies are highly recommended. Please read and research all trip insurance policy details to fully understand coverage.
