I had the best experience with Jim! He was very informative and helped us catch soo many fish! Would definitely recommend Jim Hanley!

Five years ago two of my friends and I booked a three day smallmouth bass trip with Captain Jim Hanley. To say our first experience with Captain Jim was absolutely amazing would be a huge understatement! We enjoyed ourselves so much we booked again for the following year before we left. Fast forward four years we enjoy fishing with Jim now more than ever and have already booked for our 6th year. He has excellent equipment, stories about his impressive career for days, he is kind, very knowledgeable about numerous fish species, an absolute pleasure to fish with and oh yeah….almost 50 years of guiding experience on Lake Erie. The photos above are proof that rain or shine Captain Jim will put you on the fish! If you are up in the air about booking a trip with him let me put your mind at ease….BOOK IT! He is absolutely worth every penny and then some. Can’t wait to get back on the water with him!

Captain Jim has over 40yrs of experience fishing Lake Erie. He was even inducted into the Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame for him impact on the Buffalo fishing industry. There’s a reason be has a deep roster of clients that return year and year. All the best spots, all the best knowledge, all the best tips and tricks. If you want to fish with the best, fish with Captain Iim Hanley.
