    Great time

    Half Day Trip on August 2, 2025 • 3 adults • 2 children

    Had a great father son fishing trip with Captain Jack. Bite was slow but he did everything he could to get us on fish. We were able to put some nice smallmouths in the boat. Captain is a lot of fun and we really enjoyed our time on the water with him. We look forward to coming back and fishing with Captain Jack. Highly recommend

    Great with kids, perfect bass fishing charter.

    Half Day Trip on July 2, 2024 • 2 adults

    My son and I went to Traverse in early July for a fishing trip. We booked captain Jack and he made it easy and smooth leading up to the charter. The weather was not ideal but Captain Jack made it happen. All his equipment was perfect! We caught about 10 and had a great time. Captain Jack is the man!

I started fishing as a kid in the river that flowed behind our house. In 1992 I moved to northern lower Michigan and fell in love with fishing bass in Lake Michigan and connecting waters.

    Fishing is great and will only get better the next couple weeks. Fish are moving up to spawn and cruising the shallows. Best time if year to get a trophy!
