Captain John gave us an awesome afternoon on the lake. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and worked hard to keep us on the fish. We headed back with a cooler full of fillets and a bunch of great memories!

I highly recommend Captain John if you're planning a fishing trip. He put us on fish right away at the first spot, where we caught plenty of White Bass to get things started. Then we moved to a new area, and he quickly found the Stripers. We limited out (just the two of us) in under an hour. After that, we headed back to the first spot and kept catching White Bass until we were satisfied. The boat was comfortable and well set up — easily enough room for six anglers, and I’m confident we all would’ve limited out. Captain John was friendly, worked hard, and handled the busy action with ease. His experience really showed. Great weather, great fishing, and an easy, enjoyable day on the water. We’ll be back!

Today, six of us joined John for a challenging outing. Despite the cold and windy conditions, John skillfully guided us to multiple fishing opportunities before the bite slowed down. The kids had a fantastic time, and we'll definitely be reaching out to John for our next adventure!
