As soon as we got the boat, my kids said “you need to leave a five star review!” - and I agree. In fact, it’s a day later and I have already highly recommended Captain Brian as a guide to a friend we saw today. Brian is knowledgeable, thoughtful and made for a great experience for me (dad) and my two kids. He gave real thought to how to make the experience a good one for each of us and struck a great balance of letting us take the reins and do all the fishing while also being willing to step in and lend a hand whenever was necessary (like if a kid needed a fish taken off the hook and my hands were full). He was patient and took the time to help my kids with casting and other fundamental of fishing, so I would highly recommend him for families or people just getting into fishing - but at the same time, I think he would be great for more advanced fishing excursions looking for specific types of fish too. We caught tons of fish and my kids have loved telling their friends about the big bass we caught. Brian’s communication before the trip was great and we really enjoyed his company and stories, too. Highly recommended!
Thank you Jonathan. I had a great time with you guys. ended up being a really nice day on the lake. I'm happy you guys caught fish and I look forward to the possibility of seeing you again! Happy Fourth of July have a great weekend.
We had a gangster afternoon fishing trip with Captain Brian. We put fish in the boat in the first 5 minutes and it continued the rest of the time. Very knowledgeable guide and high quality equipment and boat. Beautiful lake and lots of quality fish. Crappie, walleye, and bass were caught in abundance. several very large, bass were also netted. Brian put us in a position to catch fish, and we did!! Highly recommended this trip to anyone visiting beautiful Minneapolis.
Thank you John. I had a really good time with you and Bo. I hope you enjoy the rest of your week in Minnesota and enjoy the Olympics. looking forward to the possibility of fishing with you again. Please say hi to Bo for me.
Brian was amazing! He took us out and we caught fish after fish. You can forsure say we had an exceptional fishing trip! We may habe been lucky and been fishing at the right time to catch as many as we did but knowing the waters and habing the roght equipment and bait and experience is also a part of it. We caught multiple fish species. We had a very fun time. Every dollar spent was well worth it. I will always recommend Brian and his guide services to anyone and everyone. If I could rate Brian 100 stars, it still wouldnt be enough for the experience we had. You won't be disappointed.
Wow thank you very much! I had a lot of fun And I'm glad they caught fish and And had a good time. I look forward to the possibility of fishing with you guys again! I really appreciate this. have fun on vermilion
Captain Brian is easily one of the best fishing captains we have ever chartered. From prompt communication before the trip, ensuring we had all the necessary details and licenses, to being ready to go right at the starting time, he really turns it into a seamless experience. He's also a fountain of wisdom when it comes to fishing for particular species, what tackle works best in various seasons, and is amazing with kids. Every time we book with Captain Brian, we come away with great memories, great photos, and we're already looking forward to our next trip with Muskies and More. You can't go wrong with Captain Brian.
Thank you so much Rasheed. It's always a good time with you guys. I really appreciate you booking with me and always look forward to our trips. It's so awesome that you guys have a future pro fisherman in Jonathan. he just soaks up the knowledge. It's so fun being on the boat with him. can't wait to see you again.
Captain Brian is the best!!! He deserves a 10 out of 10 because he got my 10 old and wife to enjoy fishing. We caught fish right away and total of 3 different species. My son caught the largest fish about a 3 lb bass. My family would definitely recommend Captain Brian for your next fishing trip. Thanks Captain Brian for the great memories hope to see you Florida too!!!!
thank you so much Steve! I had a blast with you guys and I'm really glad that everybody had fun and caught fish. The weather cooperated the fish cooperated what else could we ask for?? if I'm ever heading down your way I will let you know You got to take me alligator wrestling! And not at the park! I want the real thing! I really hope for you enjoyed your stay here in Minnesota. say hi to everybody

Hi, I'm Captain Brian Koshenina, owner/operator of Muskies and More Guide Service. I started fishing at the age of 4 and haven't stopped since. From tournament fishing for Bass, Walleye and Musky to Salmon fishing in Alaska and shark fishing in California, my passion for fishing runs deep! I believe in family, fishing and fun. Fishing is 'therapy' and what a better way to enjoy a day on the water than letting me do all the work while you relax and catch fish!
