7 Hour Trip – Saint Joe River

Captain Jerry Link is a great person to fish with on the lake or the river. Steelhead fishing is great! I have fished with Jerry and regardless of whether a client is new to fishing or already into fishing, Jerry will provide a great time on the water with clients to do his best at catching fish.

Many trips with Captain Jerry

Last trip was 7-10-24. I have been able to spend many trips with Captain Jerry and my family on Lake Michigan and the St. Joe River. It might be easier to show our excitement and pleasure in pics of past charters with Originator. Great times for all of us.

Captain Jerry Link is the fish whisperer! Very professional captain, his boat is really nice all top of the line equipment. And my overall experience I give it 5 stars I’m definitely coming back next year.
