Me and 3 friends scheduled a sturgeon trip with Captain Rod, and had an amazing time! Sturgeon was a bucket list fish of mine and Rod helped us check that box, and then some! It wasn't more than 10 minutes after we anchored that we started getting bites! Rod explained what to look for, and how to set the hook, and we started reeling them in! Between the 4 of us, we pulled in over 30 sturgeon ranging in size from little 18 inch disks, all the way up to a 6 foot long sturgeon that needed multiple guys to help reel in, and we couldn't get in the boat! Everyone had a great time, and we would highly recommend Rod to anyone looking for an adventure!

From the date/time of booking Rod was in communication with us. We were able to secure the perfect day for fishing. Rod is friendly and super knowledge about all things fishing. It was an absolute pleasure to fish with him all day. He was patient and kind with my ASD kiddo. His boat is clean and has everything! He answered all of my dumb questions and didn't seem too embarrassed by how excited I was to see a sturgeon for the first time ;) My son and I look forward to going out with Rod again for more fishing adventures!
Thank you Rod for a great time fishing. We caught our fish early and Rod continued to work every technique to get the fish to bite in our full day of fishing. At the end of the trip, Rod filleted our salmon and even provided some ways to cook on our Traeger. We will definitely call on Rod for our next fishing trip. Great day of fishing!!

Had an amazing time keeper sturgeon fishing. Rod had us on fish all day. First time I fished for sturgeon and Rod got me my first ever KEEPER! He’s very knowledgeable about sturgeon fishing. He’s an amazing guide! 100% will be going out with him again.

Highly recommend this package. Had a great time catching springers with Captain Rod. The boat had a covered area and plenty of room for my group of 5. The equipment supplied was nice and clean. We all had a great time. Can't wait until our next trip. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had an awesome time getting fishing for salmon! This experience is one that you won’t forget with everything you need!

Rod is a great fishing guide. Highly recommend this package!
Definitely booking again

My father and I had an amazing experience fishing Bouy 10 August 2018. We caught two salmon and had a wonderful day out on the water. Rod was so experienced and even fillet our fish to take home. He was patient and knew just what to do and where to find the fish. We set our pots for crab and had a feast by the time it was to go in. This was my first time out on the water in a fishing boat and I enjoyed every minute. We will be back again next year!
