Whats better than going out fishing? Going out with locals who have lived in the Adirondacks their whole lives fishing these waters. The guides at Playin’ Hooky are here to make your trip memorable.

We will do our best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 3 to 9-hour seasonal trips, using light tackle, fly fishing, trolling or even icefishing. Target fish species such as Perch, Rainbow Trout, Crappie, Lake Trout, Pike, Smelt and Bass or whatever will bite depending on the time of the year and conditions on the day.

Let us take you Icefishing - Icefishing has a bad reputation for being super cold and being out in the elements. We would like to change that view with our insulated shanties, foam insulated flooring and heaters to keep the whole day comfortable to fish. We will provide all gear and bait needed. During your trip we will be using Garmin Livescope to see fish coming in and chasing our lures. Between the tiny rods and the chase for a tip up flag will make sure you have another enjoyable adventure to check off your bucket list!

Let us take you open water fishing - You'll be fishing from a remodeled 2002 19' Pathfinder boat or a 2005 20’ Pathfinder with enough room in each for up to 5 anglers at any single time. These boats ride incredibly smooth on even the rough days and are in beautiful condition. Both boats have a wireless trolling motor to get the best expierence for our clients. All the necessary fishing gear is included in the price of your trip & we provide a cooler with ice to keep drinks and snack cold.

Fishing licenses aren't included, so make sure to get them prior to the trip. Children are welcome aboard, so you’re good to get the young ones started early!
