There's a fish with your name on it in Mentor and Barometer Outdoors will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Kurtis knows them forwards and back.

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Brown Trout, Catfish, Crappie, Yellow Perch, Northern Pike, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Sunfish, Walleye, and who knows what else! Offering darkhouse ice spearing, ice fishing angling, open water angling, lakes and rivers, fly fishing.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You're welcome to bring snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

You'll step aboard a 18' Lund aluminum fishing boat with capacity for 3 passengers. It has all the essentials. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's recommended to bring a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

I've been fishing as long as I can remember, started bobber fishing as a child and moved on to all aspects of fishing throughout the years. I have a passion for taking out clients who are newer to the sport and helping them learn and feel the rush of reeling a catch in and watching them have fun.
