This was our first time on the Manistee and man was it a great time! We did a short, late season trip and he was able to get us on and hooked up with good numbers of fish! He was great with my two young boys and itโll sure be a trip they wonโt soon forget. Boat and gear were top notch and although we were prepared to battle late season cold temps, the canopy and heater kept us all warm and cozy. We will definitely be booking another trip with Captain Brad!
Rained for the first couple of hours, but the fishing was well worth it.ย The fish turned off about when the clouds cleared, but the conversation and my guide never stopped trying to get them going again.ย Really showed how good he was as a guide. Thanks for the great trip!
Capt. Brad was great. He was very knowledgable and seemed to enjoy sharing and teaching things he knew. He did very well and was very patient. Took us to multiple spots on the lake. Wad great company. Would absolutly book with him again.
Weather not so good-rained steady 3/4 of day. Started catching 1st drift. Lots of missed on our part but ended with 7 netted. Lunch was hot and delicious enjoyed on the river in the heated cabin during pretty good storm. Great day
Although we didnโt have luck, the experience with captain Brad was awesome.ย Very personable with much knowledge of the river, tackle and fish species.ย Captain Brad did everything in his power to catch us fish, but in my opinion itโs simply too early in season with NO FAULT to him or his tactics.ย We will definitely revisit the river with Brad during peak season!ย Thanks for a great experience!
