My daughter has been asking to go fishing for quite some time, and since I know nothing about fishing, I thought we had better learn from an expert! We had a great time with Captain Justin out on the lake. He is a very patient teacher with a calm demeanor, generous with his knowledge about gear, bait, rods, reels, hooks, and best practices (including safety). My daughter had a great experience and reeled in a fish within the first ten minutes (results not typical? lol)! She loved working with Captain Justin to fetch additional shiners from the hold for him to bait the lines. I feel as though I have a good basic working knowledge to start from in terms of taking my daughter to fish from local ponds. It was a great way to get out into nature, do something fun and learn new things! We'll be back with her grandmother next time she's in town visiting! Girls trip! :)

Our lake outing was fantastic, with perfect weather adding to the enjoyment. Justin proved to be an excellent guide, making the experience even more memorable. The thrill of reeling in the numerous fish we caught made it a lot of fun. Eagerly anticipating another trip with Justin in the future.

My son and I enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. The accommodation and assistance were exceptional, making it the highlight of our day for a delightful two hours.

My son and I enjoyed a 4 hour fishing trip with Justin and had an amazing experience. We caught a lot of fish and enjoyed the day on the lake. Justin was a great guide. He was friendly, helped us with baiting and casting all day, and gave us tips and information about the lake and fish. Would definitely recommend.

Wholesome family fishing. My daughter and I had a great time catching some big bass! Our guide really gave us a great fishing experience with showing us the ropes. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back to fish with Makin Big Bass Memories again. Thank you.
