What to Expect with each Charter.
Seat back and Enjoy!
When booking your reservations, we will schedule a pickup and drop off location. If you prefer to be picked up on water, please let us know as we can work with you on that. Once you step on-board, let the fishing adventure begin. Capt. Brian will use different tactics in different areas of the lake throughout the season to provide you and your guest the best opportunity to land the fish of a lifetime. Charters typically last ~4-5 hours for a Half Day Trip and ~7-8 hours for a Full Day Trip depending on the bite. We do limit each Charter to a maximum of 6 Guests.
What do I need to bring.
