    Celebrating Son's 18th Birthday

    Half Day Trip on August 2, 2026 • 3 adults

    Captain Aaron was a phenomenal charter boat guide! He started out with a tour of the boat making sure everyone was comfortable before we took off, we had about 10 poles out for a group of 3. We caught 9 fish total, 3 species of fish, Walleye, Lake Trout, Coho Salmon, 8 which were keepers, 1 release and a couple other misses! For a half day, the morning was full of action, and ran into several flurries with multiple fish on at the same time. We found the boat to be very comfortable & relaxing, lots of places to sit and a bathroom on-board. Absolutely wonderful experience & Aaron was very calm cool and collected the entire trip. We loved making memories with him! Thank you so much for everything! Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a great fishing experience to celebrate or spend time with the ones you love ❤️

    August Trip

    3/4 Day Trip on August 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    Capt Aaron and 1st Mate Ava took my wife and I out on a 3/4 day trip. Aaron and Ava took great care to ensure we had a awesome trip. We caught our limit of lakers + a bonus walleye. the boat and all equipment was neat, orderly and in proper working order. Kip, the dog did a fine job cleaning the boat deck after netting fish. They kept conversation lively inbetween catches. It was my wife's 1st charter trip and they had her pulling fish like an old pro in no time. Trip was fantastic from start to finish. 💯 recommended and we will book these guys again in future.

    Wonderful Family Trip even for Beginners.

    Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on July 19, 2026 • 6 adults • 3 children

    Aaron was a wonderful captain. Friendly, calm, respectful and educated. He set us up nice with several types of rigs and allowed my kiddos time to feel out the equipment. We enjoyed games and upper deck seating. In the end we caught several fish and he gave us a little extra time to continue our experience on the big lake. I was also happy that he rescheduled our excursion, by providing honest feedback about the fishing conditions for our first planned trip. Today’s adventure was wonderful.

    Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on September 23, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    captain Aaron was great. couldnt have asked for a better day. It was our first charter so we had no idea what to expect and were a little nervous. Until we met captain Aaron. very friendly and knowledgeable and just the perfect person you would want to lead you your family and friends onto the fish. 10/10 will be booking again next season.

    Great experience out on Superior with a very knowledgeable captain. He even set up a couple poles for our 5 y.o. boy because he wanted to catch walleye. Ended up with some very nice lake trout! Thanks, Aaron!

    Full Day Trip on July 25, 2026 • 4 adults

    Captain Aaron was amazing and put our whole group on the salmon! He was very nice and patient with us. Very nice and clean boat. The captain worked hard the whole day to continuously put us on the fish, and we all had a great time.

    solid trip

    Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on July 15, 2026 • 4 adults

    We really enjoyed out trip with Aaron. We had very crazy forest fire smoke and weather but still landed a few lakers and missed on a couple on a short 4 hr charter. added bonus is the boat is nice and was fun to just hang out and cruise on.
