    An Amazing Evening for fishing

    4 Hour Trip – Tawas Bay Evening on August 4, 2025 • 2 adults

    Brian, Jim and I had a wonderful evening, August 4, fishing with you. You are an exceptionally kind man and a highly skilled fisherman and Captain. You explained all the safety features along with explaining what we might experience regarding the wind direction and how this would potentially affect our fishing success. Fortunately, we were VERY successful having caught 13 assorted fish! Be proud of the business you created and great success to you. Who-hoo!! 😉 Jim and Anna K.

Skunked Out, Still a Good Time
4 Hour Trip – Tawas Bay Evening on June 10, 2026 • 2 adults

Chartering with Bryan was an enjoyable experience! Although we skunked out, my gf and I still had a great time out on the water. Bryan was informative and taught us how to set up lines, displayed knowledge on surrounding waters, and in our time with him, was genuinely a fun character and host!

Response from Captain

Thanks for being good sports and the kind words. Our close to port spot definitely didn’t pan out, but we were a little nervous about heading south with those thunderstorms in the area. As we talked, please let me know next time you are in the area for a redemption trip on me 👍. Hope you were able to do some of the recs I gave you while you were up here. It was my pleasure getting to know you guys!
