We’ve never fished Champlain and wanted to hook into lake trout and salmon during our week trip here, trying to figure ot out ourselves would’ve been impossible.  Captain Thorny was fantastic, put is on lakers within 10 minutes, then great fishing the rest of the day. Took us to the special spot for salmon and sure enough, bam, bam bam. Jumping out of the water, great fights, tons of fun. His knowlegde of the lake, the fisheries and its ecosystem was super interesting to hear. Really nice,... More

Rob provided a great experience, even when the bite was slower than normal. He provided endless information about the fish, the lake, and the ecosystem on top of catching some really big fish. He was flexible with our needs and accommodated without question. I had 2 younger boys with me, and he made sure they were involved and very hands on. He even gave some good recommendations for the area. I wil be recommending all my friends who visit the area to reach out to Rob for a great time!

We booked this fishing trip on a whim when we were visiting Vermont and we are so happy we did! From the start, communication was great. Rob and Matt were intelligent, informative, helpful and really enjoyed what they do. They made the experience completely enjoyable and stress free. We had an absolutely beautiful day on the water catching a total of 20+ fish (salmon and lake trout). Rob even cleaned and filleted our fish so we could take them home to eat.

Can’t wait to go back!  Captain Rob put us on the fish!  We caught salmon, lakers and a beautiful rainbow trout!  Captain Rob and First Mate Dave were so nice and took care of everything, even cleaned the fish for us.  Definitely recommend this professional, knowledgeable captain and crew!  Looking forward to our next trip with Captain Rob!

Captain Thorny met us on time on the dock and soon we had lines in the water!  It was a beautiful morning and it was early we had our first salmon in the boat and lake trout shortly thereafter.  The captain and his first mate were very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this charter.
