Peter got a fishing trip for his 10th birthday! Decided to bring his brother Colton and step dad Chase along for the day. At 10 years old Peter is what we call a “good stick”. He has fishing skill, patience and determination well beyond his years. He absolutely crushed fish all day! Chase was very consistent all day long only boating the targeted species - smallmouth bass. Both of them caught their personal bests including a couple beasts! Colton was a story unto himself. He started off not catching a thing for almost the first two hours. Tough on an 8 year old when your dad and brother are doing so well. But, after a little moaning and groaning he settled in and began his own personal onslaught! He boated his biggest fish ever! The look on his face was precious as some of the fish fought so hard he could barely turn the reel handle! Mom (Heather) should be very proud of her guys. Very polite, smart and friendly young men. It was a blast having them on board!

Dalton and his mom Andrea, made the trip from Oklahoma as part of his high school graduation celebration. On their way to NYC via Niagara Falls, they decided to try some fishing. It was clear from the onset that both were experienced with a rod and reel. They caught fish early and often with numerous quality smallmouth (both caught their personal best) and Dalton managed a nice pike to end the day. Great day on the water with great people!

James was up from North Carolina and decided to see what smallmouth fishing was all about. His extensive bass fishing experience was evident from the onset. With the stiff west wind the fish were pretty aggressive. He boated his personal best smallmouth early in the trip and proceeded to break it several times including three over the 4lb mark. He slso got his personal best drum at 8lbs. Then he topped it off by landing an absolute GIANT of a walleye at 8lbs 4oz! Also a personal best! Great day on the water with a new friend!
