    Best trip imaginable!

    6 Hour Trip – Salmon • 1 adult

    If you’re looking for an unforgettable salmon fishing trip on Lake Michigan, I highly recommend booking with Justin. Everything about the trip exceeded my expectations. Justin was knowledgeable, professional, and worked hard from the moment we left the dock until we headed back. He knew exactly where to find fish, kept the lines organized, and did a great job coaching when necessary. We caught our limit of salmon, and every fish made the trip even more exciting. The boat was clean, the equipment was in excellent condition, and Justin created a fun, relaxed atmosphere that made the day enjoyable from start to finish. Whether you’re an experienced angler or trying salmon fishing for the first time, he makes the experience easy and memorable. This was exactly what I hoped a guided Lake Michigan salmon trip would be. Great fishing, a great guide, and memories that will last a long time. I’ll definitely be booking another trip with Justin and would recommend him to anyone looking for an outstanding day on the water.

    Slow Day But Great Experience

    6 Hour Trip – Walleye • 2 adults

    Some days the fish won't bite. That's fishing. No one was catching fish out on the water yesterday but Justin did EVERYTHING within his power to give us opportunity. He put us on fish--lots of them. He took us to multiple spots, mixed up baits and techniques. He is an expert guide and fishermen. He's generous with his expertise and friendly and helpful to other boats. In the end, we hooked into a couple really nice fish but it took a lot of work. I will definitely look to fish with Justin again.

    Green Bay Walleye Trip

    6 Hour Trip – Walleye - 7:00 AM • 1 adult

    Went to Door County and fished in Green Bay. After a bad start with me being late due to lousy directions from the app, the Captain was more than pleasant about my error and came back for me at the dock. Fished for walleye by trolling and casting. went for some perch and smallmouth as well. Great day on the water

    6 Hour Trip – Walleye - 7:00 AM • 2 adults

    Had a wonderful time fishing! There was much laughter, many fish, and excellent advice shared. It was very kind of him to provide information to other fishermen about where to locate perch and walleye. He' a truly great individual. We clearly enjoyed our fishing experience with him and his first mate, Lextin!

    We were wanting to experience Salmon fishing but not spend 10 hrs on the water. Justin was ready when we got to the dock, a fair drive to fish, and, he swiftly got gear out and wasn't too long, and, we had action. We had a great experience, and, Justin let us decide when we were done. Thank you for the morning experience!
