My parents and I had an amazing time on the St. Croix with Ryan! My mom, who isn’t an avid angler, managed to catch two Walleye on one reel—what a moment! The pontoon boat was incredibly comfortable, with plenty of shade when we needed it. Ryan’s knowledge of the best fishing spots was impressive, and he provided a great selection of rods and reels for us to try. He even made sure we had fresh fish fillets to take home. I’ll always cherish the memories we made this morning. Thank you for an unforgettable trip, Captain Ryan!

Ryan is an outstanding guide who went above and beyond to keep our group of four fishing non-stop. I highly recommend booking him for your next fishing adventure!

Ryan gave us an absolutely incredible experience! His clean and spacious pontoon was perfect for our group, complete with fantastic fishing rods for both adults and kids. He even provided drinks and took care of all the air for our gear! Ryan’s enthusiasm made the trip unforgettable as we enjoyed a wonderful fishing adventure on the St. Croix. Our 8-year-old was thrilled to catch a 14” Walleye! Ryan happily baited our lines countless times and was always ready to assist. We’re already planning another trip with him later this summer and can’t recommend his services highly enough—5 stars and more!
