Votre sortie commencera sur un bateau bass de 21' Ranger Z521 pouvant accueillir 3 pêcheurs.

Les enfants sont les bienvenus pour participer à la sortie, l'alcool n'est pas autorisé, et certains poissons devront être relâchés conformément à la réglementation locale.

had an absolute amazing time out with Capt Butch. great guy even better guide. taught me what was best for the current day fishing and we sure as heck produced! Will be back 100%

My adult son and I enjoyed an outing with Captain Butch Derickson on July 29, 2025. Weather conditions were not optimal, but we caught a reasonable number of spirited smallmouth bass. Most importantly, Butch explained why we fished with specific techniques at specific locations so that we might have an opportunity to try again on our own. Butch is quite personable and we enjoyed talking with him about a variety of topics in addition to fishing.
Capt. Butch was great! Very knowledgeable on where to find the fish, techniques to be used and taught us a lot! I do a lot of charters and the captain taught me an my nephew a lot about fishing in Traverse Bay! Great trip for younger anglers as well! Lots of action and spotting the fish in the clear waters will keep them occupied and attentive. I highly recommend this trip!!! I will be doing it again!

Fishing conditions were a bit tough after a big storm rolled through over night, but Butch still put my on my new personal best and cought 5 or 6 others that were over 3 lbs. Great fully equipped bass boat with all the bells and whistles. Also had a good time chatting with Butch and the sightseeing from the lake was almost worth the price of the trip by itself
Capt. Butch put me on the fish and was as professional as could be. I would highly recommend him for any future fishing trip!!! He was prompt and provided tips!!! I caught my PB with a 6lb donkey!!!

I had a great time! I would highly recommend! We moved around a few times until Captain Derickson found the fish! Captain Derickson was very professional and made the trip enjoyable.
Butch was professional and worked hard to put us on fish. It was a slow day, as sometimes happens, but Butch stayed positive and trialed different presentations and locations to get us hooked up. We caught several really nice fish and had a fun day on the water.
We had a great time and caught a ton of small mouth fish and several That were huge ! What an amazing day of fishing in tough windy weather . We will be back !

Boat was clean and well equiped. Our tackle was in top condition, especially the line and leaders. We learned how to spot the smallmouth beds. Even though fishing was slow at first, we ended up with 6 nice ones (all released.) Biggest was 20 inches and just under 5 lbs (female with eggs.) Captain Butch was very patient with my wife and taught her to retrieve the lure with finesse. Mid June is prime time for big Lake Michigan smallies.
Captain Butch provided a great trip. He analyzed the weather prior to launch to ensure the wind/waves would be fishable. He had Emily and I one nice smallmouth right away. Emily caught her first smallmouth on this charter. Each of us had a great day on the water and would highly recommend Captain Butch. He was enjoyable to talk to about fishing and the Traverse city area in general. Would highly recommend!
