For as long as I can remember, I've been addicted to fishing. I moved to Northern Wisconsin with my family when I was in high school, just to be closer to the lakes in Northern Wisconsin. I've spent the last 20 years learning lakes, patterns, and presentations in Lincoln, Vilas, and Oneida counties. I have a solid work ethic and take pride in pushing myself daily to learn and grow. I love to teach, love to smile, and love to have fun! I promise a day on the water will be fun, educational, and full of laughs.

    Full day trip. Have booked more than one.

    8 Hour Basic Day Trip

    Tim does a great job of guiding. I have used his services several times. My youngest son had no interest in fishing before he went on his first guided trip. Now he loves it and always asks when we can go again. I have never caught so many large walleyes before. He use this mega live fish finding thing to cast right at the fish. It was unbelievable how fast we were catching large walleyes!!! Definitely recommend!!

    Reported catch:
    Walleye
    Lake Trout
    Northern Pike
    Muskellunge (Musky)

    Thanks Jim had a great time today! Next time your getting that jigging rap fish!

What's biting with L.V.O. Sportfishing in Minocqua

The weather is steadily cooling down and Musky is officially the main game in town. If you're lucky, this month may even produce a trophy catch – as long as you've got what it takes. Alternatively, the Smallmouth Bass and Crappie bite is also good.
