It is all about the experience and teaching with Bill. Your experience will be filled with not only learning about fishing and how to use equipment, but it will also be a day of great fellowship, a few laughs and becoming friends. 

His love of the water will teach you techniques and provide you with boating and fishing equipment knowledge from firsthand use and experience. 

We will help with lodging assistance and after fishing dining experiences. Bill will clean and package your catch.

You will be hosted by Bill in a 2021 Ranger 621FS Pro boat offering plenty of room, safety and comfort, It is powered by a Mercury 400HP Verado and a Mercury 15HP Pro Kicker. Fully equipped with five Lowrance HDS 12 Live electronics with 2 ActiveTargets. The technology will blow your mind. As you fish with Bill, he will teach you how to use electronics to your advantage and to help you catch more fish on your boat. The Minn Kota Ulterra bow mount trolling motor aids in trolling and spot locking on a location to stay on the fish. 

All equipment is up to date and double-checked to provide you with a safe and rewarding experience that the entire family will enjoy. 

You won't have to worry about not being prepared. Bill provides everything you need to get you started on the right foot. He provides life jackets, rods, bait and tackle. 

He will also have water, Gatorade, snack sausages and string cheese sticks on board for all trips. Hayward area full day trips also include a box lunch on the boat or an on shore predetermined hot lunch prepared by Bill's wife Kelly. On shore lunch time does not count against the fishing clock. It's a way to take a break and even change lakes,

All you need is a valid fishing license, appropriate clothing, soft soled shoes please, sunglasses/sunscreen, and a camera. But if you choose to bring your own fishing gear Bill will help you get ready before your trip and tell you what to bring.
