What to Expect
Brien is a US Coast Guard licensed Captain. You will be fishing with tournament grade fishing equipment from his brand-new 2023 21’ Nitro XL powered by a Mercury 250 four-stroke, giving you more 1-on-1 fishing time by covering water quickly and efficiently. Brien has the insider knowledge and the latest state-of-the-art fish finding technology, including Lowrance HDS LIVE electronics and GPS trolling motors for fishing finding and positioning accuracy, to put you on the fish. Whether you want to catch Bass, Crappie, Walleye, or Trout, Brien can show you how to locate and pattern the species you are looking for and teach you the most effective seasonal techniques for getting them in the boat! Crappie, Walleye, and Trout can be kept according to regulations, and Brien will clean your catch free of charge upon request.

What to Bring
Sunscreen, appropriate weather gear, and a valid fishing license.  All of the fishing equipment for your trip will be provided – although you are welcome to bring your own rods and tackle if you prefer.
He proudly offers a military discount.
