John CollierRepeat angler•
Illinois, US•Member since 20196 trips5.0VerifiedGood value for the price! Stop looking and book it!
5 Hour ~SHARED Trip~ trip on May 31, 2026 • 1 adultRick did a great job of providing education while we fished. 4 people total on a shared trip made it easy. Each of us took a corner of the boat. 3 different methods of fishing during our 5+ hour trip with trolling being the most effective on this run. We also tried throwing swim baits and vertical fishing too. I charter often all around the globe and Rick did a good job. We caught fish. Pro Tip: hit the head before you get to the launch, the lake was very crowded with families, and with a lady fishing with us…there was no where to “go” without onlookers. Also, no bathroom at the launch spot he uses so stop before you get there!

Special 5 hours trip for Izzy Lopez on August 8, 2026 • 4 adultscaptian has a really clean and maintianed boat with all the proper equipment (fishing, safetey and electronics).

(we got lucky with the action!)
Michael Bolding•Arizona, USMember since 20265.0VerifiedGreat trip even with finicky fish
~PRIVATE~for 2 (+$175pp up to 6) on July 19, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 childRick got us a couple fish early, sons first largemouth out of a lake and my brothers first striped bass and catfish. Fish got a little finicky missed quite a few bites and my son lost a decent one right at the boat. Rick went above and beyond in time to get my son his first striper at the end. Great trip we will be going back out in September!

Day before the trip Captain Rick called to get a feel for our group and what we expected. I explained that one of my sons was very interested in catching a catfish. First fish anyone on the boat pulled up was my son catching a catfish! He made my sons day. The whole trip we all stayed busy with steady action pulling up stripers and catfish. Captain Rick stayed busy the whole trip helping us out with everything we needed. HIGHLY recommended and professionally run business.
Thank you Chris, it was awesome to see your sons genuine excitement when he caught his first catfish. Definitely a memory that he will remember for life! It was my pleasure to have you and your sons on the fishing trip last night! thank you
