Fish weren’t biting and we had a hard time getting our limit. But captain James pulled out the old play book and never gave up. He truly tried to the last minute and then some. We ending up going home with a full cooler!! Awesome guy, great conversation, very knowledgeable. Will definitely be seeing him again.

what a great trip.  first salmon trip did not disappoint!  would highly recommend using Cap’n Jim and his Jimmy flys!  we limited out a s the captain really put us on the fish.  he also recomended a fish house to smoke the trout and we just picked them up and the fish is amazing.

Captain Jim knows his stuff. he was able to find fish all afternoon. Mostly caught coho, a few steelhead and king. Brought in some lake trout too

captain and crew kept the hooks in the water and close to the fish!

Captain Jim was the best! He was super friendly, knowledgeable about the lake and catching fish in it and made the trip memorable for us. We highly recommend fishing with Captain Jim and Long Gone 3 Charters.

We were on the 5 am excursion, and we were blessed with a beautiful day. Captain Jim called the water ” glassy bubbles”. One benefit of the early time is getting to see the sunrise on Lake Michigan! As soon as we dropped lines we were catching salmon! They stopped biting and we started catching lake trout. We were newbies to lake fishing, so we greatly appreciated the tips from Captain Jim and Dillon. Captain Jim is jovial, and it is fun to be on his boat. Dillon cleaned and filleted all of the fish for us. We received a message the night before our trip that the weather looked great with a picture of the place where we were going to meet.  I recommend they include information about what to bring such as water and breakfast snacks if you want them. Also, the boat has coolers, so you don’t need to bring your coolers on the boat. I would definitely recommend Captain Jim to friends and family!
