We were a husband, wife and 4 year old girl with next to no experience and looking for someone to help guide us through fishing on the lake. Brien was even better than we hoped. Not only was his boat really modern with a lot of helpful kit to find the fish but he was also really friendly and easy to talk to. He was especially great with our 4 year old and made sure she got to hold a couple of our catches with a fish gripper for photos. The highlight of our session was catching a >20lb carp but... Mehr

We booked with Captain Brien who by the way was very friendly and professional. Our grandson really enjoyed his help and guidance. There was some confusion about the trip which was immediately resolved by Captain Brien. The confusion was we were wanting a trout trip and the trip we were on wasn’t for trout so Brien called Captain Charlie Weyer and helped set up a trout trip a couple of days later. Also Captain Brien didn’t charge us for his guided trip which is a rare trait in a person nowadays.... Mehr

Brien was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, patient, personable, and clearly knows these waters and where to find the fish.

I booked the 4 hour fishing charter and it was beyond worth it. Captain Brien put us on spots that produced wide varieties of species. He was very knowledgeable and friendly and kept us entertained with stories. The boat was extremely high-end and spacious and the technology onboard ensured that we were always where the fish were. We caught bluegill, largemouth bass, white bass, walleye, and a massive catfish. I highly encourage anyone looking for a good charter to catch fish and have... Mehr

My two boys and I had a great trip with Brien.  Fish weren’t biting particularly well but he moved us around and had great equipment to find them.  He was also patient with the kids and showed us what to do.  We all caught multiple bass.  Recommend doing a 3-4 hour trip (or more) to ensure you have the time to change spots a few times.  We did 4 hours and it was a good balance between finding fish and not being too long for the younger kids.
