What a wonderful experience we had!  Capt. Stuart was accommodating and knowledgeable, and we had a stellar experience on our trip. I’ve fished all over the world and you’ll not find a more friendly and competent first mate than Maddie. That she is only 16 makes it even more amazing and it warns my heart to see such a vibrant and hard working young lady out doing what she loves. She was fantastic with us and our young boys and never stopped working to make sure all of the gear was in order. She and the Captain answered all of the questions peppered at them by the kids with patience and a smile. Maddie threw on the bibs and cleaned our whole catch on the ride back. When we come back anywhere near this area there will only be one choice of boat for us!!!

We reserved 2 boats through Captain Stuart.  Captain Stuart and his First Mate are great.  We had a fun time with them and they are awesome to fish with.  We caught plenty of fish and would book with them again.

The second boat did not have the experience we had.  The one comment that stood out from the group was “it was like holding a flashlight for your dad for six hours straight”.

Stick with Michigan Addiction and Captain Stuart.

My girlfriend and I had a great trip with Captain Stuart and First Mate Maddi.  We were told that the weather might be a little rough and that we had the option to cancel, but we decided to go anyway.  The wind died down and it turned out to be a beautiful day.  We caught a number of steelhead and lost a large king salmon.  Couldn’t have had a better experience.  We will definitely return for a repeat trip.

We had a very good time despite the fact we were all newbys and never out on a big lake and half my arty got sea sick. We all at least got the chance to either catch or at least hook onto some nice fish. The Captain and first mate were awesome when it came to a slow down and no bites they switched out baits and gear to do whatever they could to get us back on fish. Overall we did very good on our trip compared to what everyone was saying from the day before and that morning of their trips. We will be back and I will recommend this charter! Thank you for the great experience!

Great captain and awesome deck hand . We lost a couple really big fish , caught some great eaters. We did not limit out , but that’s not why we were there. Just being able to get out for me with a couple of my best friends and son was a treat . We will be back again ! Thank you guys again !
