    Smallmouth logic

    6-timers tur • 2 voksne

    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.

    Awesome Smallmouth fishing!

    4-timers tur • 2 voksne

    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!

    New personal best

    4-timers tur • 2 voksne

    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

    Spawning season finally over the bass are now getting in summer patterns. This means they are more predictable and can be found consistently. The fishing is starting to get hot as a summer day!

    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.
