My only regret was forgetting the sunscreen! My girlfriend and I had an amazing time with Captain Dan. He was friendly, easy to get along with, and prepared an incredible meal. He put us on largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, northern pike, and bowfin. We couldn’t have asked for a better fishing trip. Thank you, Captain Dan!

We experienced it all—peaceful scenery, fresh mist, the rhythm of casting, and the shimmer of fish in the water. Then came the battle: an acrobatic Steelhead, glowing pink and green, finally in hand. Dan is an excellent fisherman and guide, full of patience for beginners like me. We’ll definitely be back for more!
