Fishing and Jeff were great!
5 Hour Trip – Smallmouth Bass on August 2, 20251 adult1 child
My 13 year old son and I had a great time on the water Jeff today. He's extremely knowledgeable and patient, teaching my son (and me) a lot of new techniques. We caught some great fish and had a great time. Definitely would recommend him!

5 Hour Trip – Smallmouth Bass on July 18, 20252 adults
Wind was 15mph + it wasn't looking good for the home team but Captain Jeff found out we drove over 7hrs to fish and he made it happen. Rough waters and slow bite but he kept us on the fish. AMAZING experience and memories made
