Great Family Adventure!
5 Hour Trip – Golden Hour on May 31, 20262 adults4 children

We caught enough walleye to feed us for at least a month! Anthony is a great captain. He was very patient with our 4 kids and they had tons of fun catching walleye. He also helped us get the fish cleaned right after our trip, which made it much easier on us since we didn’t have to do it ourselves before heading home. I would recommend Anthony to any family that wants to book a charter. We had a great experience!

Best trip I’ve ever chartered
5 Hour Trip – Golden Hour on April 5, 20264 adults

The lake was a little rough , it was cold and rainy but Captain Anthony was a true professional he let us decide if we went or rescheduled, We decided to go and he took very good care of our group. The ride comfortable and dry in the new boat. Even with the rougher conditions Captain Anthony made it very fun and enjoyable. Most importantly he made sure we caught our limit and had a blast doing it!! thanks Captain
