Crazy Eyes Guide Service has a trip with your name on it along the stunning waters of the Winnebago system.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Northern Pike, Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, Muskellunge (Musky), Yellow Perch, Sturgeon, and whatever else takes the bait. On these trips, it's common to troll, cast, jig, and use slip bobbers.

Kids are welcome, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own.

Your day begins aboard a 22' Nitro dual console that holds up to 4 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

You can't go wrong when you bring sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. So make it happen, with Crazy Eyes Guide Service!

    Great guide, works hard for fish

    4 Hour Trip (AM) on August 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    We went on a morning trip on lake Winnebago going after walleye. Ryan started us on jigging, but wanted us to fill the cooler and switched to trolling. He bounced us around spots until the bite was really hot. We ended up keeping a nice mixed bag of walleye, perch, and white bass. A lot of guides get complacent, Ryan worked very hard to get us on fish all while being a friendly, helpful, and genuine guy. Highly recommend.

    Excellent Walleye trip!

    4 Hour Trip (AM) on July 27, 2026 • 3 adults

    Our trip with Crazy Eyes was perfect despite a questionable weather forecast. The boat is very well equipped and Ryan is very knowledgeable. We limited out and were back at the dock right on time. I would highly recommend him and would book another trip with him whenever I am in the Lake Winnebago or in the Green Bay area to fish Lake Michigan for Salmon !!! Good job Ryan. Thanks!

    Great trip in lake Winnebago

    4 Hour Trip (AM) on July 21, 2026 • 1 adult

    Great early morning trip! The early morning bite was a little slow due to some weather the night before that blew in quite a bit of seaweed and algea. Captain Ryan was able to make a few quick adjustments and got us on the fish. We ended up catching a half dozen sheepsheads and a 2 man limit of walley! Would not hesitate to book this trip again!

    Best family fishing trip ever

    8 Hour Trip on September 26, 2026 • 4 adults

    Our outing to Lake Winnebago was outstanding thanks to Capt. Ryan Foster. His boat and equipment made our 2 days with him perfect. He put us on fish both days, showed us what lures to use and how to fish them. The most professional and personable guide we have ever enjoyed being with. Thanks again Ryan for an unforgettable weekend

    Let me start and say that the captain did a good job, equipment was great and we caught fish. We were expecting to have a bit more action as opposed to sitting tight and just reeling in fish. We haven't ever caught Walleye and have done more bass fishing and fly fishing so sitting isn't right up our ally. Thought there would be more jigging. Only real criticism was to check lines a little more. Hooked nothing over the last hour to hour and a half and when we reeled in to finish the day found we apparently drove through a school of perch and didn't fish because we had all lines snagged with them. Little more checking and reviewing, even though it takes more work would have been good. All things considered, we had a good day and it was more on us for not doing the research. For person that wants to sit, relax with a personable captain who does the work and you reel in fish, this is a solid trip. Note that the description says they clean fish for you, but I had to do mine since we left out of an area that has no fish cleaning station. I did it fine but not everyone may know how.
