    5 Hr Trip 'Morning Madness' on July 1, 2026 • 4 adults

    Absolutely fantastic time out for two separate trips on back to back days. Was lucky enough to have the son as the captain one day and the father the next. Both were very accommodating to our party and made the entire experience wonderful. We caught a lot of fish on both days and limited out within 2 hours of motoring down each day. As great as the captains were, the first mate, Ethan, was the backbone of the operation and ensured everything ran like a well oiled machine. They helped us with someone to clean the fish and even hand delivered them to us, once the cleaning was completed. Perfectly cleaned and filleted. I do not have the ability to describe how great every aspect of this trip was. Truly wonderful experience and very fortunate and thankful to have booked with them.

    Great Time!!

    5 Hr Trip 'High Noon' on June 13, 2026 • 6 adults

    I bought this as a Christmas gift for my dad and brothers. Captain Tony took us out, Alone! And this guy did not disappoint. The skill this man has to no tonly 1. Get you to and keep you on fish. And 2. Run the boat and equipment flawlessly by himself. I've never seen a captain run 12 poles so effortlessly all while keeping us on course running all the other equipment and netting fish one after another. Tony is a true professional and we will definitely be back to use his service again. The 6 of us had our limit in a little under 4 hours. We couldn't have been happier. Best gift I've ever bought my family by far.

    Great bonding trip!

    5 Hr Trip 'Morning Madness' on August 14, 2026 • 3 adults

    Captain and Mate gave us a very warm welcome at dock and introduced themselves to us with a strong handshake 🤝. Captain showed us on board and explained all safety procedures and equipment. About 5 minutes after getting lines in the water we were reeling in nice fat walleye! After limiting out we headed back to the dock. Captain took photos of us with our fish then took them down the road and had them filleted. It was a great day and experience with my Son and Son-in-law. I would recommend and use this charter again.

    Incredible!

    5 Hr Trip 'Afternoon Delight' on May 25, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Captain Anthony and Mate Ethan provided an excellent experience for my group of three! They seem very professional and courteous. They definitely do their homework to know where the fish are and they know the techniques to get them in the boat. We went out with them for their "afternoon delight" before all the rods were out we were hooking up. We caught our limit in under 3 hours even with a few amateur mistakes from my group causing us to lose several fish. These are great guys to fish with and they get you on the fish!

    Fantastic experience

    5 Hr Trip 'High Noon' on July 8, 2026 • 4 adults

    Working with Captain Tony is a pleasure. Our original date had a threatening weather forecast. He easily accommodated a change. For adult anglers with very limited experience were able to catch our limit in a little over two hours. He and his mate helped us with landing the fish. The boat is in fine condition and the equipment was suitable to the purpose. We look forward to our next opportunity to get out on the water with this boat and crew.

    Awesome trip!!

    5 Hr Trip 'High Noon' on May 2, 2026 • 5 adults

    So 5 of us drove down from Flint, MI area. We are all experienced fishermen and fish for walleye year round. We wanted to go out and just sit back and enjoy. We had a blast! Captain Anthony and his dexk hand Ethan were great. The boat is awesome and perfect for the 5 of us. We limited in about 2 hours! Highly recommend these guys and we will be back! As a side note, there is a bar/resturant at the marina that will cook up your catch after you come in. Anthony and Ethan cleaned the fish we selected and we took them in and they served us the best walleye dinner you have ever had! Do This!!!

    Best day of the year!

    Walleye & Steelhead Combo on July 18, 2026 • 6 adults

    I can't stress enough how friendly and professional our captains were. From the moment we got back to the pier, they made us feel like old friends. And the fishing was amazing. They worked like a well oiled machine, getting lures in the water and cycling us through until all of us caught our limit. Honestly, this charter was the best money I've spent all year, and I will definitely be coming back!

    We caught our limit!

    5 Hr Trip 'Morning Madness' on August 18, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Captain Tony was great. His experience really paid off and we caught our limit on walleye. The boat itself was maybe the best fishing boat I’ve ever been on. It’s a newer boat, he has a fantastic set up, and will put you on the fish.  All of his equipment is top-notch.  I definitely recommend a trip with Captain Tony.

    If you don’t use Captain Tony for your fishing charter, you are aren’t living right.

    5 Hr Trip 'Afternoon Delight' on July 25, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    These guys are masters of their craft. Had a fantastic outing with my brother in law and his two young boys. I could say a lot, but we caught our limit within a few hours. Like I said, choosing another fishing charter would be uncivilized! We had a REEL good time! Thank you Captain Tony and Ethan for the unforgettable experiance.

    Great first experience for our family!

    5 Hr Trip 'Morning Madness' on July 13, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

    Anthony and Ethan were very personable and fun! They kept us busy reeling in walleye and we caught our limit! This was the first time my wife and I and our two kids, ages 12 and 14, went on a fishing charter and we would highly recommend Anthony and Ethan, as well as join them in the future if we return to this area.
