There's a fish with your name on it in Hudson and Barometer Outdoors will help you catch it! With Captain Kurtis at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.

Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, Northern Pike, Catfish, Crappie, Largemouth Bass, and more are in the cards, depending on the time of year. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light tackle. Capt. Kurtis also offers fly fishing.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Don't forget to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!

You'll be dropping lines from a 14' aluminum fishing boat with room for 2 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

You will need to buy a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Barometer Outdoors.
