Berger Ops. Fishing® 

Let’s go catch some bass!😎 Schedule a trip with Captain Curtis; an Insured, New York State Licensed Fishing & Boating Guide, New York State Public Vessel, Joint Pilot & Engineer, Coast Guard Licensed Master Captain 25 Ton, and FCC Licensed Commercial Marine Radio Operator. I specialize in smallmouth bass fishing charters on the St. Lawrence River and have a deep passion for aquatic life management in general. I’m obsessed with the chase for the great St. Lawrence smallmouth bass. I read the books, I study the water, I watch the fish, and I want to share what I know. There is no greater thrill for me than to put you on the fish!

My boat is a 2024 19ft custom built Prodigy Marsh Tough aluminum center console built to guide and fully equipped with everything you need to stay safe, catch fish, and have an AWESOME time.

You can rest assured that you’re coming aboard an extremely safe, and well equipped boat with a well educated captain who is going to provide industry leading tact, professionalism and guidance. I take a LOT of pride in making sure you learn something, have a blast of a time, and leave feeling confident that your hard earned money was well spent no matter how many fish you catch. Although a catch is never guaranteed, you SHOULD come with high expectations.
