I had a very good fishing trip with this outfit. I caught 2 of the biggest bass that I ever caught on the Susquehanna River. The guide was super friendly and very knowledgeable of the river. I recommend his services to both the experienced and non experienced.

We had a terrific time with Captain Mark for a full day. He took our booking on short notice and did an excellent job working with my 10-year-old son to give him a good chance of catching some fish.
