We had a great charter experience with Tim and caught several salmon. Tim did a great job working with the group who had their first salmon charter experience. Would highly recommend going with tim on a charter anytime. We’ll probably have the same group back next year and we’ll book with Tim if he is available.
Had great trip this morning with Captain Tim. We went 7 for 12 with a couple of nice Kings. The boat was spacious and comfortable and Captain Tim worked his magic getting on the fish. I would highly recommend him.
The fishing experience was great, the was patient, easy going
Four of us took a morning trip this morning with Captain Tim out of Manistee. Even though the water was a bit rough, we all powered through and landed 9 nice fish. Time was very friendly and knew his craft. I would highly recommended!
