Catching Catfish!
5/5
My grandson loves catching catfish and had not caught one for a while, which is why we chartered Captain Scott, catfish! It was a slow day by Captain Scott’s standards, but we end up catching about 15 and I had the pleasure of catching the largest, about a 11 pounder!

Are very experienced boat captain / owner knew exactly where and what to fish for on a breezy day. My 13-year-old son and I caught 20 channel catfish and five of them were more than 26 in which qualified my son to receive an accomplishment award for catching 5 over the size of 26 in, the largest being 32 inches. We did all this before 11:00 a.m. in the morning! We had a great and memorable fishing trip for sure!

Best Fishing Day Ever!
5/5
Captain Paul is the best! Our family had a great time fishing with Paul and caught well over 15 catfish, three of which qualify for Ohio fishing records. Paul is friendly, knowledgeable, and his excitement for fishing is contagious. I would highly recommend Fishin Mission with Captain Paul, you won’t be disappointed, Best Fishing Day Ever!
