Come fish the Cannelton Dam which is home of the Indiana State record Blue Catfish (104 lbs). It is definitely one of the best fisheries around for trophy Catfish.

I am a Licensed United States Coast Guard Captain who knows these waters like the back of my hand. Ive been fishing the area from Troy ,In all the way up to Leavenworth,In for the last 15 years. Sometimes spending 3 to 4 days a week on the river and 12 hr days by myself committed to learning everything I can.

I fish off of a pontoon which has been fully customized into a Catfishing machine. I catch fresh bait for every trip so we have the best chance at landing you a trophy fish. I will work hard to put you on that lifetime fish and I will leave no stone unturned. 

I provide everything needed to catch the fish.  All you will need is a Indiana or Kentucky fishing license. I highly recommend a hat, sunglasses and sunblock. You can bring one cooler per group with drinks and snacks which you will definitely need for a long day on the water.

There are no firearms or drugs allowed on the boat.
* ***********PLEASE READ****************    Any dates booked from Jan to April are subject to short notice reschedule. These dates can still be very good to fish but based on flooding from heavy ice melt or spring rain's can make the river unfishable due to extremely high water and debris in the water. Not to mention iced over creeks will present a problem as well in the winter. I will reserve the right to cancel these trips on short notice if the conditions aren't right or safe . You will be refunded If I cancel the trip due to mother nature or you will have the option to reschedule your day

    Best Catfishing Charter on the Ohio River

    8 Hour Trip on November 15, 2025 • 2 adults

    From start to finish, Nick delivered the best fishing charter experience I’ve ever had. He was extremely responsive during the booking process, making himself available for any questions and ensuring everything was seamless. On the day of the trip, he was punctual and dedicated — fishing with us for the full 8 hours. Nick’s pontoon is perfect for a day on the water. It’s spacious enough for multiple adults to spread out comfortably, and it’s especially accommodating for older guests since you don’t have to climb up and down like on some deck boats. The gear he provided was top‑notch, more than capable of handling the big blue catfish the Ohio River is known for. But honestly, Nick’s skill goes beyond equipment — he could probably find fish blindfolded. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced angler, he’s an excellent teacher who knows how to adapt his coaching style to each person. Our trip was nothing short of incredible: we pulled in 24 catfish, including several over 20 pounds — personal bests for us. Nick taught us how to walk baits on the Ohio, and for two hours straight we were hauling in beautiful blue cats. The value of this trip is unmatched. The pricing was already fair, but I’d pay more just for the knowledge and techniques Nick shared. If you want to get hooked on catfishing, book with Nick — you won’t regret it.

    All species caught

    6 Hour Trip on April 20, 2026 • 2 adults

    Captain Nick of Twin Eagles Catfish Charters put our group of 3 on a variety species of fish. We caught blues, flatheads, channels and stripers. We had a trifecta and Captain Nick was quick to help each of us net and remove hooks and get bait back in the water efficiently. Catching bait for our outing was interesting and exciting as well. I recommend Nick as a great Captain and would work with again Thanks for the memories!

15 years of Catfishing the Ohio river from Troy Indiana all the way to Leavenworth,Indiana. I usually fish 3 days a week 8 to 12 hour days. one first place tourney win at a flathead tournament and another second place.i absolutely love fishing and always have. My best friend took me catfishing for the first time 15 years ago and ive been fully addicted ever since. I love catching fish but i also love taking people to catch fish. I have just as much fun finding the fish as I do catching them. Some days its a challenge but it is so rewarding to figure out where there at
