Vianna Ocampo5.0VerifiedGreat first experience!
Half Day Trip - 1:00 PM on July 26, 2026 • 2 adultsFirst guided fishing trip ever & we were extremely satisfied! Connor was super chill, laid back & knowledgable! He was easy to talk to and made the afternoon extremely fun! He didn’t feel like a Host Captain, but more like someone we actually knew. I’d highly recommend booking a trip with him!
Donald HickethierRepeat angler5.0VerifiedSorry for delayed review, but we had a great time on Donner Lake with Captain Conner
Half Day Trip on May 31, 2026 • 2 adultsIt was the first time fishing for Kokanee for myself and my bro, and we limited plus got a nice lake trout. It was great day to be on the water with a local guide who could give us tips on some of our planned fishing destinations for the rest of the week. We'll be booking with Conner again!

Half Day Trip on August 6, 2026 • 2 adultsCaptain Connor put me on the Kokanee up at Donner Lake first thing in the morning. Once I was a fish away from my limit he asked about changing things up and going after trout so i would be able to keep fishing.Connor is a very knowledgeable Captain with a great attitude and knows the lake very well. i cant wait for my wife to give me permission to go fish with him again!!

Sonny BarceloneRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat time.
Half Day Trip on July 29, 2025 • 2 adultsMy brother and I don’t get many chances to see each other, let alone go fishing. We found Captain Conner last minute and booked on last minute vacation. We had an amazing time learning from Captain Conner and catching plenty of fish. I would recommend Captain Conner to anyone that wants to have a great time catching fish.
