We had an great time on the afternoon / sunset fishing charter. With 4 adults and 2 children, and 4 of them having very minimal fishing experience, we all caught multiple fish and some of them were quite large (over 10 lbs)!

The boat was clean and the fishing gear was very new. Everything was in great shape and easy to use - especially for the kids.  Jarrod’s instruction to the kids was friendly and simple enough for them to understand.  One of the parts that I liked the most was how social Jarrod was with everyone - especially the kids.  You could see how excited he got for the boys when they were landing their fish - and for a father that is the mark of a great fishing guide!

I booked this excursion to provide my family (wife, kids, in-laws) a different kind of experience that was fun but also unlike anything else that we have done together before.  We all had a blast!  It has been about 2 weeks since the trip and my kids and father-in-law are still talking about it.  Great memories and great pictures to hold onto for sure.

After going through a long year with many challenges and disappointments, this trip was exactly what we all needed to wrap up our summer together. I can’t say enough to express my gratitude. And the sunset views out on the lake were beautiful to enjoy as we wrapped things up to head back in. 

We will definitely visit St. Joseph again in the future. And when we are there - I will definitely reach out to Jarrod again to see if we can link up for another outing.

Took my 17 year old daughter out for the day and the experience was greater than my expectations !!! Capt. Jerrod was not only exceptional putting us on the bite with an excellent craft but was engaging , fun to be with and made our experience that much more special . My daughter loved it and will remember it for a long time . Thank you !!!!

Captain Jarrod met every expectation and more! His aggressive approach to making sure we put fish “in the box” shows how much he truly cares about his clients having a great time. Combine this approach with his knowledge, we are getting bites in no time! Thanks again and we look forward to getting back out there with you!

Right out of the gate we knew that during this particular time of season was going to be mainly Lake Trout. That had no effect on our trip. Jarrod fit right in with our group and was an amazing choice made by our group. If anyone looking for a fun charter for their group, In The Box would be the way to go. We are already preparing our next trip with In-The Box charter. Thank you so much for showing us a good time Jarrod and can’t wait for many more adventures!

Captain Jarrod is like a concert musician strategically playing all of the fishing poles in the water without crossing or tangling lines. In many instances, it’s amazing how he anticipates fish biting before we noticed any pole action. On a day where other charter boats were struggling, we were fighting with all kinds of Lake Trout and King Salmon. It was exhilarating to watch King Salmon jump high into the air after being hooked. A terrific day on the lake with Captain Jerrod. Be prepared to work hard and take in the action coaching instructions. You will learn a lot and really enjoy this experience.
