There's a fish with your name on it in Akron and your captain, Buddy will help you catch it!

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Largemouth Bass, Spotted Bass, Crappie, and anything else willing to bite. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself throwing lite tackle on spinning gear, or maybe something more advanced like using bait casters.

You'll be dropping lines from an 18' Nitro bass boat with a capacity for 2 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. Smoking and drinking alcohol is not allowed.

Your Fishing Buddy will make it easy for you to go fishing in Northport. So, how about booking that trip?
