You’ll be using an 18’ Tracker bass boat for fishing. It can sit up to 3 anglers, runs on a 60 HP Mercury engine, and uses GPS and fishfinder technology for a quick and safe trip to the fish and back. The boat’s equipped with a wireless trolling motor in order to make a quieter approach and a livewell to provide you with live bait.

The vast choice of freshwater fish you can chase includes Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass, Crappie, Lake Trout, Atlantic Salmon, Sunfish, Northern Pike, and Yellow Perch. Using light tackle, you can spin, jig, fly fish, as well as ice fish. You can keep the fish you catch if you want to and you’re welcome to bring kids aboard with you.

Captain Drew will provide you with all the fishing tackle, lures, live bait, and will also clean and fillet your catch. Before you depart, just make sure you have fishing licenses, food, and drinks. Also, you’ll need your own gear in case you want to fly fish.
