What an experience the captain was phenomenal knew exactly where to go put us on fish right away was very helpful with the kids. We had a 11 year-old and an eight-year-old going was very patient and all I can say is the kids arms were sore they caught so many fish. I would highly recommend this for anybody going. We had four people and fit perfectly on the boat.

We had an outstanding fishing excursion with Captain Colton. We caught about 35-40 largemouth bass in four hours. Captain was amazing. He manned the boat and tended to everyone in our party. This was the best fishing excursion a number of us has ever experienced. We highly recommend him and will be future repeat customers.

All 3 of the people in our party caught their personal-best bass on our trip with Captain Mike. He was very knowledgeable of Headwaters lake, his gear and boat were excellent, and he put us on tons of fish both days we were with him. He was very helpful and patient with my 10 year old son as well. I would definitely recommend Captain Mike.

We had a great experience at Headwaters with Captain Mike. My son caught his PB bass and Mike spent much of the morning explaining techniques and strategy with my son. We had an awesome trip and would highly recommend Captain Mike. He exceeded our expectations. We hauled in a dozen fish on the morning charter.

Great fishing trip. Pontoon fishing with captain Dave was fun. He kept moving to put us on fish and a a lot of different baits to try. So mellow river and lagoon fishing compared to getting whacked by waves. Different in a good way.

First time my son and I bowfished and we had an amazing day. Capt was one of (if not the best) charter captains ever. He was knowledgeable, funny and provided the perfect day. We bagged some massively sized Tilapia and just had a fantastic day in a truly magnificent environment. I recommend this trip whole heartedly and can't wait to book again myself. This was a true gem of an experience all around.
