Your guide will handle everything that is fishing related for your fishing adventure. You will be using the finest fishing gear and be fishing out of the nicest boats. All bait, ice, fishing cleaning, and gas is taken care of by the fishing guide.
Your guide will call you 24-36 hours before your trip and arrange the location to meet him. If you are staying on the lake we will almost always arrange to pick you up at the docks and head out from there. If wind is a factor or the guide feels another part of the lake or a different lake is a better option he will arrange that with you.
This really varies on the lake. Depending on where you are wanting to fish, that will dictate the seasonal patterns. When booking your trip, you can get the up to date report as well as what things are looking like. Just remember, typically the fish are always biting somewhere!
In the event of inclement weather, you and your guide will have the final say. More often than not we are able to move the trip around during the day or sit out the storm if we need to in order to finish our fishing trip with you. In the event we have to cancel because of inclement weather, you will not be charged for that trip. If you are staying for a longer period of time, we also encourage clients to reschedule their trip so they can get out on the water. Our guides are excellent when dealing with these conditions and we always make sure our customers feel safe and comfortable.
Absolutely! Clients can keep fish and your guide will fillet and package them for you.
We will fish most anything that swims and that you want to chase. We encourage to communicate what you are looking to do when booking your trip.
