    Excellent!

    3 Hour Trip – Weekday Evening • 3 adults

    Bass and Northern. Nonstop fun and excitement. all three of us were busy landing fish the whole time of the three hour trip. Captain Joseph knows the lake, has the right equipment and the experience to make your trip successful! He showed us a lot about where the fish will be found and the best way to trigger them to bite. His knowledge of fishing is broad. He actively competes in fishing tournaments. He made many happy memories for our group. You should book him today!

    Wow such a fun evening for my grandkids!

    3 Hour Trip – Weekday Evening • 3 adults • 2 children

    Joe was so friendly and so patient with my two grandkids. The kids had so much fun catching nice bass and northern pike they couldn’t go to sleep when we got home! I will be bringing my littles again soon to fish with Joe! Highly recommend

    Fishing with Joseph

    3 Hour Trip – Weekday Evening • 2 adults • 1 child

    we were talking to the catch and release lake. expectations were to keep fish same was written on guides page. very frustrated

    Response from Captain

    Hi Valdimir, Thank you for your feedback and my apologies for the inconsistency in communication. I was not aware that your party was wanting to keep fish until we were idiling out to the fishing grounds. I have it cleary stated on my fishing booker listing that I primarily practice catch and release and was under that assumption. It is unfortunate that we couldn’t catch any pike/walleye for the table, but I enjoyed catching quite a few bass with you guys!

    Bass on the First Cast

    3 Hour Trip – Weekday Evening • 2 adults

    We met up with the friendly captain on the dock and within 10 minutes of the first spot we started at, both me and my friend hooked up on bass. Amazing experience and got my friend hooked on fishing.

    Reported catch:
    Largemouth Bass
