Running angling trips out of Garrison, MK Fishing Guide Service invites you to check out the local fishery in style.

Come on aboard with Capt. Matt, whose main priority is to get you on some fish. Expect to use techniques like light tackle spinning, based on the species you’re targeting. Speaking of which, you have the option of 4 to 6-hour trips, where you’ll be fishing for the likes of Walleye and Smallmouth Bass, depending on the specific season and the day’s weather.

Your boat for the day will be an 18’ Alumacraft that fits up to 3 anglers at any one time. The boat comes with a wireless trolling motor. All the necessary fishing gear is included in the price of your trip. All that’s up to you is to use it as best you can.

Please keep in mind that you’ll need a fishing license before the start of the trip. You’ll be able to keep any legal species caught during the trip, except Smallmouth Bass that are catch and release only.

Up for a family trip? This is a children-friendly business, so bring your loved ones to share these memories with.

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.
