Captain Hooks Fishing Adventures
Captain Hooks Fishing Adventures invites you to a day of fishing fun and games on numerous prolific lakes of Oneida and Vilas Counties! With Captain Pat Wingo at the helm, you will hit some of the most productive fishing grounds in the area and learn how to land the biggest fish.
If you're a freshwater enthusiast, then you've come to the right place, because these waters are teeming with the most prized game fish. This means you can expect a wide range of species on your hook – from Bluegill and Crappie to both Smallmouth and Largemouth Bass, Walleye, Musky, and Northern Pike.
You'll use light tackle for Crappie and Bluegill, while heavy tackle is reserved for Musky that can grow to impressive sizes. If you're going after Walleye and Bass, then jigging is a recipe for success.
Capt. Pat will provide reliable Fenwick and Shimano fishing equipment, as well as live bait and lures. After the trip, he'll clean and fillet the catch, if you'd like, so that you can cook it as soon as you come home.
Come aboard a 21' Alumacraft boat with a 150 HP Yamaha engine and you'll be on your way to the best hot spots in no time. There's room on the boat for up to 4 anglers, and the whole group can fish at the same time. The quality navigational equipment will lead the way to your prey and then, it's your time to shine.
It doesn't matter whether you're coming with a group of friends, your family, or you're hosting a corporate activity, Capt. Pat will go out of his way to organize everything for you. The only thing you should think about is buying fishing licenses, dressing warmly, and bringing a supply of food and drinks.
Captain Hooks Fishing Adventures will show you what great fishing action is all about!

Steven Marino5.0VerifiedCan’t say enough about Captain Pat.
Half Day Trip on July 26, 2026 • 2 adultsTook my grandson to his first fishing trip with Captain Pat. Every spot we stopped we caught fish. A great experience. Only downside was a major storm that cut short our 2nd day. All I can say is that I would recommend Captain Pat wholeheartedly. His equipment, knowledge of fishing and where the fish are, and his personality made this a fun trip. We will be back.
Erin Holmes5.0VerifiedCaptain Pat is the GOAT!
Half Day Trip on August 28, 2026 • 2 adultsThis was my second trip to Wisconsin to fish, and I finally caught my first walleye. Captain Pat gave us all the tips and tricks we needed to get our limit. He was super friendly and knowledgeable, and we’ve already booked a spring fishing trip with him as well.

Half Day Trip on May 2, 2026 • 3 adultsFirst time I was out with a Walleye charter. Cold start, weather and fish, but turned out beautifully. We ended up with 2 excellent Walleyes, 26+, and 24+ inchers. I would highly recommend Captain Pat to put you on some quality fish. Thanks again for a wonderful charter.

Jim SchoepkeRepeat angler5.0VerifiedPerfect gift idea
Half Day Trip on June 11, 2025 • 3 adultsThis was a gift to my father. At 86 there is little one can get someone at that age. So, we got him this trip. It was a great experience for dad, he caught a lot of fish, and he really enjoyed his day out fishing. I would do it again i a heartbeat. Pat was very knowledgable about the fish we wanted to fish and where to go. Some of the best fishing I have done with my dad.
