2 bass first thing this morning on shiners then it went dormant so I tried soft plastics with no bites so back to shiners again and I caught 1 about 10 inches so captain cut trip short by 2 hrs
Yeah it was a tough day with the conditions we had. But I had a great time fishing with you and if you get a chance to come back we’ll get you back out and see if we can’t get you one of them big girls.
I don’t know if it’s the captain I got or what but absolutely terrible. First he showed up late. The guy brought 4 dozen of shiners, when the night before I asked AJ for 2. He dropped a bunch at the boat ramp and said he didn’t see the texts from AJ until the trip was over, tried to charge me for 3 dozen. Asked him for artificial lures but he just ignored and said “ we’re going to a new spot” and just kept rigging shiners.. Asked him if we could go to a much more calmer spot cause the wind was hectic but he just ignored and head to his pin points. Rods and reels were weird, like stuff you’d use for Saltwater or something, I don’t really know as I am from Minnesota so I wouldn’t know how things work around here. Overall not a good outing for me.

Caught one fish. Don’t understand why I had to pay for 3 dozen shiners at $24.99 per dozen. I don’t think we used even 1 dozen. Was not very pleased.
I am a tournament fisherman and did not want to bring my boat on vacation. I asked for a trip fishing artificial lures. The guide you assigned me was very nice and personable. I gave him a tip in the end. However he had not been fishing artificial lures recently on Toho and had not located any fish. My wife caught the only fish on the trip. The guide and myself caught none. We only had 2 or 3 blowups in the pads. I should have asked for a guide that was also a tournament fisherman. Disappointed.
Hello James, I am sorry to hear that. I really appreciate your feedback though. We work hard to keep our customers on the best fishing possible but the one unfortunate thing about this profession is that sometimes the fish aren’t biting well. Especially when you have bad weather which I understand was the case with your trip and the 2.5 hours you booked didn’t give your captain enough time to figure them out on artificials for the day. Thank you for your feedback though. From this I am considering recommending only shiners on 2.5 hour trips. As the live shiner bite is much more consistent. Again I am sorry that your experience wasn’t great but I certainly always appreciate the feedback.

Guide was very unprofessional, started bitching about how much money AJ’ s cut was before we even left the parking lot of the meeting place. Spent the first 4 hours out in the middle of near white caps bobber fishing. I suggested we move into the grassy area or even the Lillie pads, I was told if he thought there was any fish there, we would already be there. So he moved the boat to just a different location out in the middle. Then when we finally find the fish and start getting bites, he kicks the troll motor on higher and moves it out of the area. I have used other guides in the area and will never use or recommend this service to anybody.

I’m sorry to hear you had such a bad experience Bill. But we really appreciate the feedback. Every bit of feedback we get we always use to help improve our services for the future. Your guide was one of our top captains and I’m sure he had you on the best spots on the lake. I heard you ended up catching 15. This is his first negative review he’s had since working for us for 23 years. Again I appreciate the feedback for the future as we always strive to provide the best possible fishing experience for our customers.
