Reel Patriot Sportfishing and Guide Service
If fishing in Lake Geneva is on your bucket list, look no further than Reel Patriot Sportfishing and Guide Service.
Top targets include musky, walleye bass and pan fish. You’ll target your catch by trolling or casting, your choice.
Capt. Tom operates a 22’ Dual console that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has downriggers, as well as all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.
Before coming aboard, you’ll need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
In the summer don’t forget to bring sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. In the fall and winter dress warm. It is always colder on the water. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Very friendly and accommodating Captain!
Captain Tom was very friendly and accommodating! He had a lot of equipment ready to go and took us to various spots of the lake with no issue. He helped my dad, who hadn’t fished for 30+ years, go from beginner to casting like a pro. He was able to offer various types of rods with different reels to meet our needs. We did experience some reel issues like bird nesting one badly, and accidentally ripping an entire line off of a reel. He was very nice about it, told us not to fret about it and handed us new setups. I strongly recommend his services, and look forward to going on another trip with Captain Tom when I can.

Balancing the Books and the Bass
One of our CPAs and his wife traded spreadsheets for spinnerbaits during our partner retreat and had a reel good time! We booked with Tom and had Anthony as a guide. They report having an awesome time and catching multiple types of fish. They said they would 10/10 come back for another voyage!

Tom is a great fisherman, good at teaching others how to fish, and great at making the whole thing a wonderful experience - the question for me is not if, but when, will I be able to get out with him again
