Endless Mountains Guide Service has been putting people on fish for over 20 years. Captain Lynn has been born and raised in the area and he's spent his life fishing through 'the endless mountains' region. We're talking about the beautiful scenery of the northern Susquehanna River, which is considered to be a perfect fishing spot if you're looking for Smallmouth Bass.
You'll be fishing on a 20' G3 that accommodates up to 3 guests. This aluminum boat is powered by a 150 HP Yamaha engine and features GPS and a fishfinder. The vessel is specifically designed to run in shallow rocky waters, so you'll glide to your fishing spot in comfort and safety.
The captain tends to spend every day on the water, so when the season starts, the trips are available every day of the week. You'll primarily focus on fishing for Smallmouth Bass, with Walleye and Catfish being caught on occasion. Weather conditions are usually great from the end of March till the end of December. During summer, there's also an option to take an afternoon trip.
All fishing equipment and bottled water are provided by the captain. Make sure to bring your freshwater fishing license on time and pack some snacks and drinks for the day. To make sure the fish are there to fight another day, you'll practice catch and release on your trip.
Great fishing combined with the breathtaking scenery is what describes each trip with Endless Mountains Guide Service. Book your spot on the boat and join the fun.
It is not uncommon to catch more than 100 fish in one day. Coupled with the breathtaking scenery, you will have an unforgettable experience.

I have been on a lot of charters - and sometimes fishing is good and sometimes not. You can tell when the Captain of a charter is putting in time on the water or when they are actively looking for ways to put you on fish. While it was a little slow Lynn did not quit and eventually everybody caught a nice fish. I highly recommend this charter and can’t say enough good about the captain.
Captain Lynn is a fantastic Captain. Booked a full day trip in the Susquehanna for my 13 year old son and I. It was a tad chilly (sub 60 degrees) when we launched, which caused a pretty thick fog for the first hour or so. Even so, we had 2 smallies on the line in both our first casts. Lynn told my son and I that the goal was to catch 50 fish for the day. At that point we were only at about 12 smallies combined, and while we were having a great start to our trip, I felt that Captain Lynn was maybe a touch “overly” confident. Well … with more than 2 hours left in our trip, we had to make a multiple new goals; a couple being to catch 70 fish and my son wanted to catch his Personal Best (PB). By the time we finished, we caught “more than” 80 fish, including a handful of 3+ pounders and multiple 2+ pounders. The biggest being a 3.7 lbs Smallmouth. We headed North from Ulster Launch and fished both the Susquehanna and the Chemung all day. Captain Lynn was a pleasure to be around, super helpful and knowledgeable… but most of all he was phenomenal with my son. Definitely (100%) will be booking again. And SOON !!!

Lynn is a great guide, and knows the River exceptionally well, having fished it since childhood. He knows where the fish are located and what artificial lures work the best. He’s fun to be around and one immediately feels comfortable fishing with him. He is very willing to impart his knowledge to both young and old alike. He guides year round and I would highly recommend scheduling trips during all four seasons. You would get to fish one of the oldest Rivers on Earth in a very scenic environment, likely to see a number of eagles and other wildlife. In the Fall the leaves are spectacular! The smallmouth fishing on the Susquehanna is hard to beat and you will want to be fishing every minute of the day!

Put us on the fish! First hour we caught 50 or more small mouth bass. Almost every cast a bass was hooked and landed. Any trouble with the rod or tackle he was right there to hand you a different rod and repaired the line or whatever was broken, tangled, non- functional was fixed in seconds ready to hand it off to you again. Very knowledgeable about the river and what time of the season where the fish will be. In total me and my son caught 206 small mouth bass in less then 8 hours. Learned a good bit about tackle and what to use on the river so it was educational as well. Recommend this man to anyone. Four thumbs up very impressed and happy with my choice for a guide. Plan on returning with my both my boys for another great day on the water with captain Lynn Nickeson.

Captain Lynn knows where the fish are. He is very professional and was ready to go when I got there. He put me on 26 smallmouths and 1 walleye with weather conditions less then ideal. I will be booking again in the future with Captain Lynn. Thank you so much Captain Lynn!
When I arrived at our meeting place, the Captain already he the boat in the water and ready to go. I had a Great time wit Captain Lynn. We started fishing 5 minutes after I went aboard the boat when he took me to the 1st spot. He was very knowledgeable and instructed me on river fishing. I caught a total of 28 fish in a 4 hour trip. Some small, most were in the 3/4 to 1 pound, and a couple 2 to 2 1/2 pounds. Captain Lynn was very friendly and we engaged in good conversations. We shared fishing stories. I would definitely recommend him as a fishing guide.
My hubby and my step son had an amazing 3 hr+ trip, they caught 20× fish and truly enjoyed the company of Captain Lynn. That 12lb Carp made thier whole fishing season!

Wonderful day on the river - boated about 50 fish, saw more eagles than could count, and Cpt Lynn made the whole trip enjoyable and fun. Highly recommend!!
Many people have asked me why I fish, and I've always struggled to give a concise answer. However, my trip with the Endless Mountains Guide Service was an experience that embodied why I love to fish. Every trip on a boat starts with the capt. Rich with experience, enthusiasm, and kindness, Lynn was top notch, not only as a person but in fishing quality also. In four hours we brought 50+ smallies on the boat, and had a quite a few bigguns (1.5 lb+). In addition to the wonderfully colored, strong-fighting, smallies, we got lucky and saw a young bald eagle, a red-tailed hawk, and a mature baldie. Just as I thought the susquehanna had revealed all her secrets, I was given the painful opportunity to lose a screamer on a deep-water-drift. That's fishing though, and I look forward to another trip with Capt Lynn. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to get a true feel of what Susquehanna-fishing is.
Captain Lynn is beyond awesome. Great knowledge of the best spots, turned absolute novices into confident anglers, and one (my son) into Master James. Wonderful host, provided outstanding equipment and a great time all around. Looking forward to our next trip out with him

First time you use a guide you don't know what to expect and you spend a day with the person. Captain Lynn made my day enjoyable, some of the reason was because he put me on fish and provided the the bait the fish were hitting but the main reason is his easy going personality and how comfortable he made me feel. We joked around and had great conversation through out the day. Yes, I caught a number of quality fish.

Great smallmouth trip.

Our adventure with Captain Lynn was superb. Due to weather, I rescheduled two times and felt terrible about it but Lynn was extremely understanding and easy to work it out with. My friend group can be pretty rough and rowdy with eachother but the Captain joined right in and enjoyed the fun making the fishing that much more enjoyable. He was quite conscious about making sure we were comfortable and enjoying the trip. We would love to fish with him again in the future if he'll have us! Would recommend ten fold.
