Captain Bob and his son, Wes, clearly know where the best spots are and how to fish because we were catching fish left and right as soon as our lines were in the water.ย We easily caught our limit.ย We were blessed with amazing weather, and we really enjoyed visiting with Bob and Wes.ย Theyโre a lot of fun.ย We were also excited that they let our 18-yr-old son and friend net the fishโฆ..weโve never had a charter let us do that beforeโฆ..It added a lot to the total experience.
so much fun!! thanks so much! enjoy your stay in Northern Michigan!! what a beautiful family you have! hope to see you again aboard the Mariah in Fishtown!!
I went out solo with Bob on a beautiful Lake Michigan day, as a complete novice to these waters. I told him I was hoping to learnโand he delivered in spades. I came away with a much better understanding of the area, local conditions, and the gear and techniques for fishing around the Manitou Islands.
The Mariah is a comfortable, well-outfitted boat, and Bob is an exceptional captainโknowledgeable, patient, and just a great guy to spend a day with. Iโve done a few charters over the years, and I can honestly say Iโve never had a better experience on the water.
Best of all? I came away with a cooler full of beautiful king salmon. We got on fish, had a blast doing it, and Iโm already looking forward to the next tripโthis time with my school-age kids. Couldnโt recommend it more.

So much fun having you aboard the Mariah! Look forward to meeting the rest of your family in Fishtown aboard the Mariah! Thanks again my friend
Captain Bob is an excellent captain and should be the captain on your next trip out! He is personable, a great communicator and put us on fish quick.ย The weather was overcast and the water was choppy but Captain Bob prevailed.ย All 6 people in our group, ages 12-63,ย caught at least one fish and considering the size of our catch it was plenty! His boat is well maintained and attention to safety obvious. After the trip he took pics of our group and hauled our catch to Carlsonโs Fishery to be filleted and some smoked. What a great day!! Thanks Captain Bob!

Thank you! What a great family and a ton of fun on the water
If there is any captain i would trust to have the best time ever its Captain Bob. We had the most fun and caught some great fish and memories. Captain Bob definitely knew his stuff and where to go. If I could give him a higher rating I definitely would. We will be coming back to see him again.
Thanks so much my friend! You two are a ton of fun on the water! And you can โCatchโ Sure appreciate it!
Bob was an amazing guide, he did a great job with my 3 younger kids. We all got to catch some amazing salmon and lake trout as well.ย Grateful for his kindness and hospitality aboard the Mariah, the cooler of fish was a bonus!
Thank you so much! Such a beautiful fun family you have! And Sheena you are one awesome fisher lady! Thanks again and hope to see you next year aboard the Mariah
