We would like to wish Tammy Corb and your lovely family all the best, as they head off to Dubai on their family’s greatest adventure to date. Tammy’s husband has taken a promotion with the architectural firm that he works for and committed to some exciting projects that will keep the Corbs in UAE for the next two years.

As many, many of our customers will attest, Tammy brought a great work ethic and wonderful enthusiasm to our company. Her fifteen years of experience in the Fishing Travel industry was an excellent addition to the Fishing Pursuits family and will certainly be missed.

We at Fishing Pursuits wish Tammy and her family all the best and hope to work with her again in the future.
