Member since January 2024 Sheboygan, United States
Background
As a USCG certified captain, Captain Ryan has know the waters of Lake Michigan since he was 7 years old. He started his guiding career in '99
Techniques
We strive every hour of your trip to put as many fish in the boat as possible. We constantly switch out baits and will move to all different depths to give you the utmost experience. **PLEASE LOOK AT WHAT OTHER CHARTERS CHARGE BEFORE BOOKING** 1. Look carefully at the hours of the trip you’re paying for. I give you a 6 hour trip at a better price than other charters 5 hour trip. 2. We leave the dock at your scheduled time and fish right up to the hour you paid for. Other charters are back at the dock on the last hour. 3. I do not charge for having up to 6 people. A lot of charters charge more for up to 6 people. 4. We cart your catch to the cleaning station where we clean and bag all of your fish at no extra charge.
