3/4 Day Walleye Trip (AM) on May 25, 2025
I can't thank Captain Chuck enough for helping me and my son make a memory to last a lifetime. I booked this trip for my son's 19th birthday present, it's been a tradition since his 15th birthday that we go fishing. This trip was wonderful because Chuck immediately understood what I wanted without me asking. The first fish was hooked on my side of the boat but Chuck snatched the pole and handed to the birthday boy. I was beyond pleased with his attention to detail and personable nature. This trip was absolutely fantastic and the memory will always be special to us. Thank you Captain Chuck.

3/4 Day Walleye Trip (PM) on April 5, 2025
Chuck was great and took us out even with us all knowing the worst conditions existed.(No regrets, but should've rescheduled) No safety concerns and still got a few in the boat with temp in upper 40s, rain with some wind, and water levels 5ft plus above normal rising 1ft while on the lake. Boat and gear also great and will be booking with him again......when the weather is better...lol Chuck is a true guide providing direction on techniques and handled any help we needed. Equipment was spot on and recommend booking with him if your experienced on a novice to targeting walleye like us. Despite conditions we still enjoyed the trip. If you're still reading I also suggest taking hwy 70 when coming from Indy, not hwy 74. Thanks again Chuck and will see you soon for our next trip.

Weekday Evening Walleye Trip on May 22, 2025
Captain Chuck was one of the best, if not the best Captain that I have ever fished with. We had a great day the first day we fished together. The second day we fished together he put us on the fish again and we limited out in around 3 hrs. Fantastic experience, very helpful and we will definitely use Chuck in the future.

Where to start, Chuck you are an awesome guide, person and now hopefully a friend for life. The equipment was spot on, the knowledge he has is remarkable. Gary, Dakota, and myself did back to back trips, Saturday afternoon and this morning May 11. We caught our 3 man limits on both trips. If anyone whether knowledgeable on catching walleye or novice wanting a fabulous experience, Chuck is the right person for you. Good luck Chuck and bent rods brother. See you soon.

3/4 Day Walleye Trip (AM) on June 15, 2024
Chuck was the only captain that responded to my inquiry of looking for a guide on Brookville Lake. He has top-notch equipment that is very clean and all of his certifications made us feel very safe. Throughout the day, he taught us multiple techniques for catching walleye and other species of fish. He was a joy to talk to and has a ton of experience in the area and in Michigan. We were able to bring home a couple of walleye and some other fish for the freezer. We fully intend on using Chuck again not only for Brookville, but a Michigan trip soon. I have been on nearly 20 guide trips in the last couple years, and Chuck is absolutely top-notch. He knows his stuff. I would highly recommend him to any angler and their family.
