    Excellent experience

    4 Hour Trip on August 18, 2026 • 2 adults

    Matt is a very pleasant and engaging fishing guide. Our fishing started out slow due to the dog days of August but before long we are catching smallmouth bass that were too large to keep. My son and I had a very fun time!

    An Amazing Experience and Father's Day Gift for Dad

    4 Hour Trip on October 12, 2024 • 3 adults

    Matt was an excellent guide and captain! In what felt like no time, we had all caught at least one bass, and we even caught a few at the same time! He had all the equipment, knew all the best spots to fish, and made the most out of our trip. Wickedly efficient and quick with a net when a fish was on, and near as quick had a minnow on our line to get the next one! Very knowledgeable and helpful with strategy for catching, and adaptable with the conditions of the lake, for catching methods as well as locations. Definitely kept us where the fish were. Quality rods for us, and quality boat tech and gear to get us fish! Happy to recommend him to anyone! Thank you Matt!!!!

    5 Star Walleye Trip

    4 Hour Trip - 4:00 PM on August 23, 2024 • 2 adults

    Matt was very knowledgeable and shared multiple techniques with us. He landed us on double digits of walleye and made it a trip to remember! He was just as excited as us when we would get a bite. If you are looking to learn more about fishing walleye, or just a good time out on the lake, Matt is your guy.

    Half day trip with Matt Klug

    4 Hour Trip - 12:00 PM on September 30, 2022

    15-20 of the nicest smallmouth I have ever caught. That was what I was fortunate enough to get on a trip to Mille Lacs with Matt last fall. A combination of good boat work and the expert use of the latest electronics kept us on the fish and made for a great day. Don’t forget the hard water fishing either as we had a couple of great panfish trips in the Alex area this past winter. I will be fishing with Matt a lot on the future.

    My grandson and I love fishing with Matt. He has a great sense of humor,an engaging personality, and he makes fishing a joy. He has taught my grandson new techniques, but even when he is teaching it’s a real one on one communication and companionship trip. We are ready to go again! Great job Matt.

I started fishing with my grandfather before I can even remember. As I got older I started fishing some smaller club tournaments and really enjoyed that but eventually guiding was my dream.
