We had a wonderful time fishing with Captain Chris! Weather caused some delays, but he handled everything professionally and still made sure we got our time on the water. He went above and beyond to give us a great experience while keeping safety a top priority.

Fantastic first-time experience for our group! Although it was late in the season, we had an amazing time and caught several monster fish! The crew was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us clear, honest options when heading into rough waters. We’re definitely booking another trip next year. Thanks to Captain Chris and Mike for an unforgettable day on the water!

Captain Chris Rugg knows these waters like the back of his hand! I wasn’t expecting much during the slower season, but we ended up catching 3 Lake Trout, 4 Kings, and believe it or not, a 10-12 lb Flathead Catfish. It was delicious! Definitely an unforgettable trip with a knowledgeable captain!

Great day on the water fishing! We went in the afternoon, so the catch was a bit hit and miss, but we still found fish and brought home 8. Thanks, Captain!

We wanted our son to have a fantastic fishing experience for his 11th birthday, and Captain Chris did not disappoint. Not only did we catch some fish, but my nephew also learned a lot about filleting fish from Captain Chris and his crew. We’ll definitely be booking him again!

Captain Chris was great! He communicated well and worked tirelessly to ensure we caught plenty of fish. We had a wonderful time and are excited to book our next trip with him.
