    GREAT Boat & Crew

    6 Hour Trip (AM) • 5 adults • 1 child

    Today we went with Tyler and Chase. Both very experienced. Easy going and very enjoyable company. We had a hard time getting the bite started, as everyone else did even though there was plenty of fish on the screen. Chase never gave up! Busted his ass , changed baits, tryed every trick in his arsonal of fishing gear. The boat was like a tackle store!! We finally got the bite. 2 kings and 1 lake trout and 2 got off. My bad. Overall very satisfied. Great outfit with 3 boats and alot of communication between boats to find the bite. I wont be using anyone else cause hell, why would I.!

    Reported catch:
    Salmon
    Lake Trout
