Enjoy! A motion sickness pre trip, wasnโt real bad but times of feeling a little queasy could be eliminated with some motion sickness medication. OTC

Fishing isnโt always catching. Be patient and if you donโt catch fish the first time try again. So worth the wait and a wonderful sport.

Make sure you know your weather! We checked with Capt Don the Sunday before tornado quality T-Storms were blowing through the area on our scheduled trip. We postponed a day for a much smoother ride!

Lake Geneva is a large body of water with great depth and submerged structure. You need an experienced guide to navigate these waters for the first time.

Bring warm clothing. The lake this time of year is a cold trap and cools the air above it.

You do need fishing license but you donโt have to buy it on line. There are places in town that sell license

Bring proper clothing ,sunblock and a great attitude ! remember it's the experience not the poundage of fillets. Although you may get both. There are no guarantees. Good luck.

You get the most out of the experience if you get on a boat. Otherwise, look at local rivers.
