The captain and crew knew exactly whet to do, where to go to find fish, and provided opportunities to try different methods of fishing. The water was cold and fish sparse, but they took us to the right spots to catch a trophy type lake trout.

The trip started off a little slow but after patiently waiting for the bites, Captain Taylor put us on some amazing fish. His knowledge of the bay is unbelievable, ended with 6 Salmon and 2 Trout. Thank you Captain Taylor for an amazing trip that the boys and I will remember for a lifetime

Captain Taylor was top notch, his knowledge of the bay and fishing locations is second to none. He alerted us conditions could be uncomfortable where we were originally going to fish. We ended up all getting a fish and had a great time. Would 10/10 recommend again. We look forward to the next time.

The weather was perfect except for a 2 minute rain that flew through. We maxed out on Lake Trout which were big! We had a great time and our Captain, Taylor, was the best. Resourceful, very knowledgeable about the fish, lake and area and encouraged questions. He was very interactive. We had a great time!
