Controlled chaos. With the season slowly inching closer to its end, the fishing is awesome! Big fish, medium fish, small fish. A mix of all. We do have a few days open in September if you’d like to take advantage before our season ends.

Ratings & Reviews Summary
September 16, 2025
After a week of high winds and a flipped lake, conditions were tough. The weather on charter day was perfect, but every captain was working hard to find the fish. Our captain and first mate gave it their all, and it paid off. After plenty of stories and good fishing vibes, my 11-year-old nephew hooked into a monster Coho 300 feet out. Fourteen minutes later, he landed a catch we’ll never forget. Huge thanks for an unforgettable day!
September 16, 2025
This was my second trip with this charter, and the crew delivered once again. They worked hard to keep us on the fish and created a fun, relaxed atmosphere the whole time. I’ll definitely be booking with them again.
September 16, 2025
Matt and Josh took excellent care of us—this trip was long awaited, and they absolutely delivered. Their fast-paced teamwork and skill made the day efficient and enjoyable. We’d gladly book with them again.
September 16, 2025
We had great weather, and Matt was an excellent, professional captain throughout the trip. Josh, his first mate, worked hard the entire day—switching lures, setting hooks, and answering all my questions. We’ll definitely be booking again. Tight lines!
September 16, 2025
This was by far the best fishing charter experience I’ve had. My kids had a blast with Matt and Josh—they felt totally at ease while reeling in the biggest fish they’ve ever caught. I had a great time too, wearing myself out on some solid trout. If you’re looking for a top-notch, professional charter, 716 Sportfishing is the way to go. Easily the best choice out there!
September 16, 2025
Captain Matt and his Cap in training Josh were both a good time to be around. Matt Kept us on the fish the entire 5 hours! I can’t say enough great things about these guys. We definitely had the time of our life out there and can’t wait to come back and do it again!! Thank you guys!!
