Background
I’ve been fishing my entire life. My dad started me out at a very young age, and I’ve never looked back. I bought my first boat, a 12’ Jon boat, at the age of twelve with the money I earned from my paper route.
Techniques
I prefer to jig and troll for walleye depending on the time of year.

This morning, I hosted a group from Indiana, and I believe three of them were first-time anglers on the big lake. I deviated from my standard approach of running spoons today, instead opting to run worm harnesses behind bottom bouncers. We fished in 15 feet of water, using 35-foot leads on 2oz bouncers, with a speed of 1.8 sog; notably, color did not seem to be a factor. The weather was beautiful, and the fish were exceptionally active. This crew successfully caught their limit, and half of the captains. #takeakidfishing

This morning I had Nick, Sarah, Rachel, and Mike along for another wonderful day on the lake. It sure makes this job fun when both Mother Nature and the fish cooperate. I struggled through a couple nasty tangles and a little bit of heat, but we got a boat limit done in less than five hours. Fishing is hot, donโ€™t miss your chance to harvest some of the bounty that this lake has to offer. Give me a call or shoot me a message to reserve your date.

This afternoon I had another group from Indiana. I was forced to cancel and reschedule on these guys a couple weeks ago due to high winds, todayโ€™s weather was much more conducive for for a fun day on the lake. The fish did not disapoint either, allowing these guys to box their limit of walleye and the captain was able to catch the other half of his daily limit. Throw in a bonus yellow perch and several catfish to round out the box. Give me a call or shoot me a message if youโ€™d like to take advantage of this insanely hot fishing weโ€™ve been experiancing.

Saturday evening I hosted some family members that were looking for an enjoyable day on the lake. The wind picked up from this morning which forced us to stay in close. We were still able to get it done with the customers limit and the other half of the captains limit. The fishing just keeps better every day. Give me a call or shoot me a message to get out and take advantage of this world class fishery.

Saturday morning I had a couple returning Father/Son duos out for an absolute perfect day of fishing. These boys got a workout today and are looking forward to come back perch fishing in the fall. We finished the day with their limit and half the captains limit. Give me a call, or shoot me a message if youโ€™d like to reserve your day on the lake!

Friday I had a last minute booking by the White family from Maryland that was in town visiting Cedar Point. Brandon is a fantastic fisherman and picked up on my program fairly quick. It was like having a 1st mate onboard. We finished the day with a boat limit!
