Join Upstate Guide Service for a fun day of fishing in the northwestern Adirondacks!

With 20 years of experience in licensed guiding in the Adirondack Mountains, Captain Mike Crawford provides trips in the spring, summer, and fall.

Starting out of Saranac Lake, you’ll have a professional, safe, and enjoyable trip suited for both beginners and advanced anglers. Kids are welcome to come aboard as well.

Your boat for the day will be an 18’ Lund aluminum fishing boat with room for up to 4/5 anglers.

The 2021 Lund Impact –  “The Greyghost 3” – is a stealthy, responsive, safe, state-of-the-art fishing machine! Guests can enjoy a beautiful scenery and great fishing in style!

Northern Pike and Smallmouth Bass are great summer species to catch on light tackle spinning gear. Fly fishing is always an option!

Keep in mind that all the trips are catch and release only. Also, feel free to bring kids on your trip.

Captain Mike provides all the fishing tackle as well as live bait, so just bring your fishing licenses and the food and drinks of your choice.

Come spend a day with Upstate Guide Service and enjoy a beautiful lake trip in the mountains!

Hire an experienced, professional guide service and get more than just an expensive boat ride!

Captain Mike took me to his best fishing spots and showed me how to fish the area. He is very knowledgeable and I would recommend to anyone in the Adirondacks.
