Bass Fishing Perfection in Chippewa Bay

Rick is the kind of guide who instantly makes you feel comfortable and confident. His deep knowledge of the river, seasonal patterns, and bass behavior had us landing quality fish in no time. The boat was well-equipped and super clean, and Rick’s relaxed, friendly attitude made the day both fun and informative. Whether you’re chasing your personal best or just want a great time on the water, Rick is the guide to book. I’m already planning my next trip back — can’t recommend him enough!

Unforgettable Day on the Water with Rick Mitchell!

Fishing with Rick Mitchell out of Cape Vincent was an experience I won’t forget. From start to finish, Rick was professional, prepared, and incredibly knowledgeable about the waters and seasonal bass patterns. He took the time to explain techniques, adjusted to our skill levels, and made sure we were always in the best spots. The smallmouth bass action was nonstop, and the scenery was beautiful. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a serious and enjoyable day of bass fishing.

We did the 6 hour charter for Small and Large mouth bass with Captain Rick Mitchell out of Cape Vincent. He is a seasoned pro and took us to great spots. He had very nice equipment to use, Very nice lures to use, and outstanding electronics to navigate good fishing spots. Can’t recommend him more highly. He was wonderful and we had a trip, brought home a great catch of small mouth bass, and we’ll definitely do it again.

Great Day on the Water

Fishing with Rick Mitchell was an awesome experience! He knows the Waddington area like the back of his hand and had us on bass within minutes. Super friendly, patient, and passionate about what he does. The boat was comfortable and well-equipped, and the whole trip was smooth and fun from start to finish. Highly recommend if you’re looking for big bass and a great time!
