Looking for a fishing trip that keeps your lines tight and your crew excited all day long? This private 5-hour multispecies adventure is hands down one of the best ways to experience what our waters have to offer. You're not just targeting one fish here – we're going after everything from hard-fighting walleye to those legendary muskies that'll have you talking for years. Perfect for families, groups of friends, or anyone who wants to maximize their time on the water without dealing with crowds.
When you step aboard for this top-rated fishing experience, you're getting a full half-day of guided action with room for up to 4 anglers. No need to worry about bringing lunch – we keep things moving with non-stop fishing opportunities across multiple hotspots. Your captain knows exactly where each species likes to hang out during different times of the day, so we'll be switching techniques and locations to keep everyone engaged. One minute you might be working structure for bass, the next we're trolling for that trophy musky. This isn't your typical "sit and wait" fishing trip – we're actively hunting fish all day long. The beauty of a multispecies approach means there's always something biting, whether you're a seasoned angler or this is your first time holding a rod.
We run a variety of proven methods depending on what's working best for each target species. For walleye, expect to work with jigging spoons, live bait rigs, and trolling setups that cover water efficiently. Bass fishing means switching between topwater action, soft plastics around cover, and crankbaits over structure. When we're hunting pike and musky, we break out the bigger baits – spinnerbaits, large cranks, and bucktails that trigger those aggressive strikes. All rods, reels, and tackle are provided, but feel free to bring your favorite setup if you've got gear preferences. We keep multiple rod combos rigged and ready so you can switch between techniques without missing prime fishing time. Your guide will handle all the rigging changes and make sure everyone's using the right presentation for whatever we're targeting at the moment.
Largemouth Bass are the crowd favorites around here, and for good reason. These aggressive fighters love our shallow bays and weed lines, especially during morning and evening hours. Expect fish in the 2-5 pound range with occasional giants pushing 6+ pounds. They hit hard and fight dirty with jumps and runs that'll get your heart pumping. Spring through fall offers consistent action, but summer evenings are absolutely electric when they're feeding on the surface.
Walleye are the bread and butter species that keep your cooler full and your dinner plans sorted. These golden beauties typically run 14-20 inches with plenty of "eaters" in the mix. They're most active during low light periods and overcast days, making them perfect targets for our morning sessions. Walleye have that subtle bite that separates the experienced anglers from the beginners – there's real satisfaction in feeling that light tick and setting the hook on a nice 'eye.
Northern Pike bring the excitement factor with their explosive strikes and razor-sharp teeth. These toothy predators can show up anywhere but love weedy areas and drop-offs where they ambush prey. Pike in the 24-35 inch range are common, with occasional monsters stretching over 40 inches. They're active throughout the season and hit with such force you'll think you snagged bottom until they start peeling line.
Muskellunge are the holy grail – the fish of 10,000 casts that every angler dreams about. These apex predators can reach 40+ inches and provide fights you'll remember forever. Musky fishing requires patience and persistence, but when one decides to eat your bait, it's pure adrenaline. Fall is prime time for trophy muskies, though they can surprise you any time of year. Even follows and boatside action from these massive fish create memories that last a lifetime.
Crappie and other panfish round out the mix with consistent action that's perfect for kids and anyone who enjoys steady bites. These schooling fish provide great opportunities to put numbers on the board, especially during spring spawning periods. Crappie in the 10-14 inch range are excellent table fare and always willing to cooperate when other species get finicky.

Pomoxis NigromaculatusCrappie are schooling fish that run 7-12 inches and weigh around half a pound to a pound. You'll find both black and white varieties hiding in brush piles, fallen timber, and weed edges in 8-20 feet of water. They're most active at dawn and dusk, especially during spring spawning when water hits 62-68°F. What guests love most is the sweet, flaky white meat - some of the best eating fish in freshwater. They travel in groups, so when you find one, there's usually more nearby. These fish have smaller mouths, so downsize your baits. Here's my trick: use a small jig tipped with a minnow and fish it vertically through brush piles. Move slow and feel for that light tap - crappie are subtle biters.
Micropterus SalmoidesLargemouth bass are the kings of shallow cover - you'll find them around fallen trees, weed beds, and rocky structure in 5-15 feet of water. These green fighters average 12-24 inches and 1-4 pounds, with that famous oversized mouth that extends past their eyes. They hit hard and jump when hooked, making them a blast for kids and experienced anglers alike. Spring through fall are prime time when water temps are 60-75°F. They're also great eating - firm, white meat that's perfect fried or grilled. My go-to tip: throw a plastic worm into thick cover and let it fall slowly. Bass can't resist that wounded baitfish action, and that's when they'll absolutely crush it.
Esox MasquinongyMuskellunge are the ultimate trophy fish - the largest member of the pike family that can reach 4-6 feet and 30+ pounds. These apex predators lurk around weed edges, rocky points, and deep structure, often in 15-40 feet of water. Fall is peak season when they're feeding heavily before winter. What draws anglers is the challenge - they're called "the fish of 10,000 casts" for good reason. When you do hook one, expect an epic battle with jumps, runs, and pure power. They're ambush hunters with tiger-like stripes and needle-sharp teeth. Use heavy tackle - 50-pound test minimum - and large lures like musky bucktails or big crankbaits. Here's the key: work figure-8s at boatside after every retrieve. Many follows turn into strikes right at the boat when you give that lure extra action.
Esox LuciusNorthern pike are the water wolves - aggressive predators that average 2-3 feet and can hit 10+ pounds. These toothy fighters hang out in shallow, weedy bays and around structure where they ambush prey. Spring through early summer in water 60-70°F is prime time, though they move deeper when it gets hot. What makes them special is that explosive strike - they'll absolutely slam your lure and fight hard with runs and head shakes. Their razor-sharp teeth mean you need a steel leader, and handling requires care. They're decent eating when kept cold and cleaned right. My advice: use big spoons or swimbaits and retrieve them steady but not too fast. When you feel that first hit, don't set the hook immediately - let them turn the bait and take it properly before you drive it home.
Sander VitreusWalleye are the gold standard for eating fish - mild, flaky meat that's hard to beat on the dinner table. These golden-colored fish with their distinctive glowing eyes average 15-25 inches and typically weigh 2-6 pounds. They prefer deeper water during the day, hanging around rock piles, drop-offs, and weed edges in 15-30 feet. Evening and low-light conditions are prime time since their reflective eyes give them a huge advantage feeding in dim light. They put up a solid fight with their head-shaking runs. Water temps around 65-70°F get them most active, especially spring and fall. Pro tip: use live minnows on a slip sinker rig and drag it slowly along the bottom near structure. Keep your rod tip up and feel for that telltale tap-tap-tap.
