From booking to meeting at the dock everything went smooth and professional. Capt. Pat is very personable and his knowledge of lake made for a perfect day. We had a day of catching a plethora of good size fish as well as great conversation. Thank you Capt. Pat for the great day and I look forward to doing it again in the future!

I was lucky enough to book with Unlimited last year, on one of the few days there was good ice.  I had great time.  Patrick and Anthony were fun and engaging.  We caught blue gill, crappie, and catfish.  I have already booked again with them for a trip in late December.  Hopefully the ice is ready to go.
