Prepare for your arms to be tired. You might hit some slow patches but when you get a bite get ready for another one. Fish could be 1 lb or 30lbs you never know.

Grand Traverse Bay is huge and hiring a guide is essential. I tried fishing it on my own a couple of years ago and had no success. With the right guidance, an angler can expect to both catch fish and learn something at the same time.

First timers are going to be just fine - take it all in and enjoy the water. Sean and Dan are great at teaching and helping while letting/pushing you to bring them in. When they get excited for you, it’s a great time. Bring snacks, water/drinks, hat, and a hoodie.

I feel this would be a skewed comment from me. The weather was perfect with seriously calm waters. My trip was on Monday so it wasn’t crowded on the water, but Capt Greg said traffic can get ugly especially on weekends. Very popular to go after the kings.
