Valarie put us on an absolutely incredible day out on Headwaters Lake! From start to finish, everything was smooth, professional, and just plain fun. Her knowledge of the lake and ability to find fish was seriously impressive—we were on bass all day long. We ended up catching 74 fish, which is just unreal. The action never really slowed down, and Valarie kept us dialed in with the right spots, techniques, and tips. She was patient, encouraging, and clearly passionate about what she does,... More

Booked a half day AM trip for Father’s Day weekend and we are glad we did. Captain Valerie is extremely knowledgeable and has some great spots. Put us on just under 50 fish (48 to be exact). We even got out a little bit earlier than planned to beat the heat and get some better fishing in. Thank you again for a great weekend happy to add another trophy to the growing list!

Had an absolute blast on this charter — we put 60 bass in the boat and didn’t slow down once. Valerie is the real deal: super friendly, all business, and clearly knew every inch of the water. She put us on fish immediately and kept us on them all day. No wasted time, no guesswork — just results. If you want a guide who actually knows what she’s doing and is going to maximize your time on the water, this is your charter. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Best trip I’ve ever had on Headwaters.  Captain Valarie could probably find fish in the desert.  Released 47 bass including numerous 5lbers, several 6lbers and the last fish of the day was a little over 7lbs.  Definitely recommend Captain Valarie if for nothing else, all the great stories she has!!

Valerie Morrell of Morrell Charters guided me on the Headwaters of the St. John River.  We caught BASS, about 33.  A half dozen at 5 lbs, none under 3 lbs. If you want a Captain that is committed to giving you a Great fishing experience, use her.  She is very client focused and a pleasure to spend the day on the water with.  I have fished with many captains but none with a client focus that she has.  I very highly recommend Morrell fishing Charter and you will have an amazing experience.
