Captain Matt was phenomenal! He was so wonderful and accommodating during the booking and planning of our fishing trip! If we are ever able to come back, we will definitely book a full day trip with Captain Matt!

Captain Matt spent a lot of time helping me learn basic techniques like reading the sonar, choosing tackle, and bait casting. The fish were being a bit stubborn, but Matt covered the entire lake to find some good schools, and put in extra time to make sure we put some fish in the boat.
