If you’re looking to stack the deck in your favor and hammer fish like a pro, book a trip with Captain Nate Mountain—period. This guy doesn’t just find fish—he hunts them down with surgical precision.

From the moment we left the dock, it was clear Nate’s not just another guide. He’s a fish whisperer with a sixth sense for where the action’s at. Within minutes of dropping lines, we were bent over the rails and calling for the net. No dead zones. No wasted casts. Just tight lines and big smiles.

Nate’s gear is top-notch, his boat is clean and rigged to perform, and his energy is off the charts. He’s locked in the entire trip—scanning the sonar, reading the water, adjusting tactics on the fly. You don’t just feel like a passenger; you feel like part of a crew on a mission.

If you want to smoke ‘em at sunrise and still have arms left by lunch, go with Captain Nate. Just be ready—because the fish don’t stand a chance.

Had our first trip out to Douglas Lake and had the honor of going out with Captain Mountain. He was so knowledgeable about the fishing patterns and species we might see. He seemed to have extensive local experience and strong teaching skills. He provided all of the equipment we needed to provide a fun and safe experience. Most of all, he was patient with me - a complete amateur. I would definitely recommend Captain Mountain to anyone coming out to the area!

Nathan took great care to ensure the trip was what I had asked for. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to fish Douglas and learn about the lake. Great personality, very professional, a pleasure to fish with.

I took my 16 year old and his buddy with his grandpa. What a great experience and memories made. We all caught fish but conversation was flowing.  Nathan knew all the honey holes too. Highly recommend!

Great knowledgeable and super nice guy. We caught double digit bass in the tough time of the year. To notch equipment and bait on board. I highly recommend Nathan and I look forward in going back!
