If you’re looking for an unforgettable day on the water, I can’t recommend Jon highly enough. From the moment we set out, it was clear he knows his craft inside and out. His knowledge of the local waters, fish behavior, and best techniques made all the difference—not just in how much we caught, but in how much we learned along the way. What really stood out was Jon’s patience and attitude. He’s the kind of guide who genuinely wants you to succeed and have a great time doing it.The equipment was top-notch, the boat was clean and well-maintained, and every detail was handled professionally. But beyond that, Jon just makes the whole experience enjoyable—easygoing, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what he does.By the end of the trip, it felt less like hiring a guide and more like spending the day fishing with a friend who happens to know all the best spots. I’d book with Jon again in a heartbeat and would recommend him to anyone looking for a first-class fishing experience.
Thank you Tyler!! So glad y’all enjoyed!
Capt Jon was an excellent guide, putting on limits of trout despite poor weather. He was patient and knowledgeable, teaching us new tips and tricks to catch fish. We had a great time and will definitely book again in the near future.

Thank you Benji! So glad y’all enjoyed!
we caught trout and redfish almost immediately, very few lulls . Would do it again.
Thank you Daniel! So glad y’all enjoyed!
Very windy day, but Capt Jon knew where to find fish in spite of the white caps. Caught lots of trout; unfortunately many were undersized but we still got our limit of keepers.
Thank you Jerry! So glad you enjoyed!
