    Amazing trip!

    Half Day Trip on August 3, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

    We had a great time with Jeff and caught a ton of fish. I took my 8 year old son who had not fished much prior to this trip. I was a bit nervous about taking him on this trip, but Jeff went above and beyond to ensure he had a fantastic time. He learned a lot, caught some huge fish and had a blast. This was truly one of those experiences he’ll remember forever. Thanks Jeff!

    great trip

    Full Day Trip on August 6, 2026 • 2 adults

    Captain Jeff was great, qualified, professional, knowledgeable of lake and fishing. Only suggestions would be to incorporate all prices in one. guide fee, gas, bait etc so you know up front. Also let us know whether credit cards are good or not as Captain didn’t except credit cards for final payment which was a little awkward and preventable if i had known up front.
