Their employees are helpful and polite. Whether I am looking for a firearm, buying a small box of ammo or looking to facilitate a firearm transfer, I am treated with value and like I matter to them. The service is second to none. I appreciate their time and the fact that they also support the King George Outdoor Club all the time!

This privately owned business gives you down home customer service for all your copy, print, fax, or notary needs without the hassle of going through traffic into Fredericksburg.
As you leave Copy That, walk down a couple of doors to the Blue Bar Bakery (www.bluebarbakery.com and and indulge in some of the best home made cookies around or place an order for your choice of cakes, pastries or pies. I have personally enjoyed many of the baked goods (especially the soft ginger snaps) at the Blue Bar Bakery. In fact, you can buy some great goodies to give to someone special!
In addition, while you are enjoying some great treats, you can view some of the Fike Outdoors photography. Some of my photography is on display at Copy That and you can purchase any that you like.

<![CDATA[Hounds F4R Heroes]]>Sun, 21 Feb 2016 21:14:37 GMThttp://fikeoutdoors.com/companies-we-recommend/hounds-f4r-heroesPicture
Hounds F4R Heroes is a patriotic organization focused on using their love of sporting dogs (think fox hounds, beagles, bassets and any other hunting type dog) to hold events to support veterans. I have had the honor and pleasure of covering some of their events and have found the people to be top notch, America loving, down to Earth people. While I personally do not own hounds, I have felt right at home among the people at their events.
I would encourage ANY person that loves our country to support Hounds F4R Heroes. In covering their events, I have personally seen where they use the donated money and can tell you that it is money well donated for a great cause. Check out their Facebook page www.facebook.com/houndsf4rheroes/ If you are on social media or their website http://www.houndsf4rheroes.org/h4rh/ .

<![CDATA[The Midnight Sun Charters]]>Fri, 07 Aug 2015 17:13:34 GMThttp://fikeoutdoors.com/companies-we-recommend/the-midnight-sun-chartersPicture
I have known Capt. Ryan Rogers who owns The Midnight Sun Charters http://fishmidnightsun.com/, since he started his business. Capt. Ryan fishes out of Smith Point near Reedville, Virginia and he also fishes out of Virginia Beach at select times of the year. His charter can put your group on bluefish, rockfish, Spanish mackerel, redfish, and croaker. He also enjoys taking people inshore and offshore fishing for a variety of species.
I have always enjoyed fishing on The Midnight Sun because of the professionalism that Capt. Ryan and his mate exhibit. They strive to ensure you go home with fish in your cooler and they customize trips to fit the skill level and needs of the group.
I have an outdoor club that I started and I also teach at a public school. Many times, youth I am affiliated with have enjoyed trips on his boat. My family has fished from his boat countless times and we have never had a bad experience. Anytime I go out on a fishing charter, Capt. Ryan's business is the one I compare it to.
