Captain Scott was SO easy to work with, quick communication, his boat and equipment were excellent, and we hit our walleye limit hours early. Super friendly and fit right in with our sarcastic group. We are thrilled that we chose him for our first charter and will definitely return again!

I grew up fishing with both of my grand fathers. As a youngster I spent hundreds of hours trolling for walleye and pike in remote waters of Canada. Why drive past some of the greatest fishing in Michigan? Now I create experiences with all of you to enjoy.
