Tasnia Miah5.0VerifiedNewWent above and beyond to make us happy!
Half Day Trip on October 24, 2026 • 2 adultsJonathan was our guide, and he was absolutely wonderful! He was incredibly kind, personable, and a pleasure to spend the day with. Although it was a tougher day for finding fish, he worked hard to put us on fish and made sure we were happy with our catch. He was also exceptionally accommodating and patient with my mom, who needed a little extra help with her rod. To top it all off, he even escorted us back to our car to make sure we made it safely at dusk. His kindness, attentiveness, and dedication truly made the experience special. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend fishing with Jonathan!!
David Olson5.0VerifiedCaptain Don is a Great Teacher and Awesome Guide
Half Day Trip on September 7, 2026 • 3 adultsI was impressed how Captain Don patiently answered every question we had and he also put us on a lot of fish (38 sand bass, 1 big catfish I couldn’t get in the boat, and 1 big crappie). He also told us some great stories and overall made the whole adventure fun. I would definitely recommend this tour.
