The first two hours was a no bite period. It could’ve been wrong lures, direction or depth. But the minute we turned to head back towards land the bite turned our direction. My sons and I were kept busy taking turns reeling in the bounty. In all we got twelve nice fish on board. Would book another charter with Captain James and son Tom the first chance I get. Tom was up to his elbows changing lures and helping land our bounty. The after docking Tom pulled out a big filet knife at the cleaning table and made quick work of the fish. On 8-8-26 I’m smoking a few trout and 3 families will be gathering for a feast, Of course THANKS to Captain James and son Tom.
Frank, we were happy to have you guys aboard and get you out there to catch some fish!
We headed out early for our fishing charter. Captain James was in contact with us the day before so we knew what to expect and answer any questions. We arrived on time and after a brief safety lesson and introductions, we were off! We spent 5 hours catching fish, chatting and enjoying the lake. We caught coho salmon, king salmon, lake trout and steelhead trout and all four of us had plenty of opportunities to reel in the catch. Captain James and our first mate were helpful and excited for us with each catch. At the end, they arranged the fish, took photos, cleaned and packaged all the fish for us. It was a great memory-making trip and we would definitely book with them again!
So glad to hear everyone had such a great time and had a blast reeling in all those fish. Hope those sore arms were worth it!
Nice boat, exactly as advertised. Friendly captain and deckhand. Very knowledgeable. Took my 13 year-old daughter and they did great with a kiddo on the boat. We have chartered many times in different places and this was one of our best trips. Highly recommend.
Thanks for the kind words, David. We’re happy to hear everything worked out and that you had a great trip!
Captain and first mate were very knowledgeable and worked together great. Boat, equipment, and amenities were super clean and in great shape. Had a great experience and would definitely recommend!
We are really glad to hear everyone had a great time on board. Thanks for being such an amazing group, you guys!
We had a great time with Capt. James and Co-Capt. Tom. The boat and equipment were in great condition. We were a group of four adults and 14 and 15 year-old boys. The swells were 1 to 2 foot, which may be a problem for people with weak stomachs, but we were fine. We would have no hesitation booking again with far out fishing!
Aaron, a very big thank you to everyone for being such a great and understanding group. Despite the mechanical issues and early hang up time, we were glad to hammer out a handful of fish in under an hour. We appreciate your patience and look forward to having you back out on your discounted trip to finish filling that box!
