His patient, laid-back approach makes his trips welcoming for beginners, families, and experienced anglers alike.

About Your Trip

Join Captain Jory for a day of freshwater fishing on some of Southeast Wisconsin's most productive inland lakes. Whether you're looking to fill a cooler with tasty panfish, chase aggressive Northern Pike, or hook into Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass, this trip offers a fun and educational experience for anglers of all skill levels.

Fishing primarily on Lake Delavan and Lake Geneva, you'll explore proven hotspots aboard an 18' Alumacraft equipped with Garmin electronics, a wireless
trolling motor, and a live bait well. The boat comfortably accommodates up to three guests, making it a great option for families, friends, or anglers looking for personalized instruction on the water.

Captain Jory specializes in targeting Bluegills and other panfish and enjoys teaching guests the techniques needed to consistently locate and catch fish throughout the season. Depending on conditions and your goals for the day, you may use light tackle, jigging, drift fishing, or bottom fishing techniques to target a variety of species.

All rods, reels, tackle, live bait, and lures are included. Half-day trips provide four hours of action targeting panfish, Bass, and Pike, while full-day trips allow more time to focus on multiple species or dive deeper into the art of panfishing. Just bring a valid Wisconsin fishing license, your favorite food and drinks, and get ready for a memorable day on the water.
