Half Day Trip (AM)

Everyone in our party had lots of reps of pulling In walleye. Crew is thoughtful and and supportive to make sure we had a blast. We also liked learning about how the gear works and appreciate the that insight during the day. The 2 young guys had the best time with pulling in great fish. Fosh fry tonight!

Great day on the water. The Captain and his 1st mate were top-notch. Our crew brought in 27 yellows. Next step: big family fish fry! If you are reading this and wondering if you should book this charter? I only have one comment: “you wont regret it”

Our family had a blast on this fishing trip. Captain Rick and his crew Emily and Nate worked hard to make sure we had fun and made great memories. They explained to us everything they were doing and were great keeping the kids involved. They truly cared about our experience and made sure we hit our lint on walleye. Highly recommend to anyone who reads this review.
