    What a haul

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    Our guide did a great job of putting on some tricky fish. When the bite was on, it was really on. He was having a hard time keeping up with unhooking fish. We came back with two kinds of bass, catfish, walleye and bluegill. Even though we didn't keep them, we did catch two drum. Our guide was also able to help my first time fisherman husband.

    Reported catch:
    Walleye
    Spotted Bass
    Catfish
    Response from Charter operator

    Enjoyed fishing with you again and meeting your husband. He caught on pretty good. Look forward to next time.

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    Jason was so very nice, he knew exactly where the fish were biting & we had a wonderful morning! If you do not have the opportunity to fish with him that’s just bad luck 😉. Highly recommend Jason! We’ll definitely be back!

    Response from Charter operator

    Thank you so much. Glad y'all enjoyed the trip. Enjoy the filets.

    Wonderful day - Wonderful skipper!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    We thoroughly enjoyed our second trip with Jason Lenderman as our guide. We caught enough fish for several meals, and felt completely confident in Jason's ability to guide us and navigate this large lake!

    Response from Charter operator

    I enjoyed fishing with y'all again. Thanks much.
