For anyone wanting to fish on the Manistee river I would highly recommend Chris with dark blue charter.  A first class act all the way!  Chris is super knowledgeable and can put you on the fish.  Five stars!!

Went on a trip with Chris with my roommate and we had a blast! Super nice guy who makes everyone feel safe on board. Would take a trip again and we plan too!

Captain Chris was awesome and great guide to learn from. Had some good laughs! He had us on kings through out the river trip.

Chris was awesome and he made my two teenage sons feel really comfortable on his boat.  Chris was honest with me the day before our trip telling me that the run had slowed down dramatically but we decided to try our luck and both of my boys caught steelhead.we fished several spots throughout the morning and he shared a lot of information about fishing the Manistee river.  It was a great day on the river.

Went on a river steelhead trip for my birthday and capt Chris delivered with a trip I won’t soon forget. From the top of the line stealthcraft to the nova tackle rods and terminal tackle everything about this trip was as professional as it gets. If you are looking for and unforgettable experience then look no farther than dark blue charters and guide service.
