    super knowledgeable and experienced guide

    5 Hour Trip (AM) • 4 adults

    Captain Earl knows these waters SO WELL. He put us on the fish and showed us the best technique to jig. We had a great time catching huge walleye, and let me tell you, deep fried in a light batter that night it was unbelievably great fish! A++++ recommendation, give him a few hours and let him guide you to great fishing! Steve
