Ever since I was a little boy with my dad on the Muskegon River I always wanted to chase my dreams of being a fishing guide. I’ve been chasing Michigan's fresh-water species since I was a kid and have been guiding since I was 18. I am a full-time fishing guide here in Michigan and look forward to showing you what Pure Michigan has to offer.

What truly distinguishes our service from other Michigan fishing charters is their unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction and unwavering dedication to safety. They go the extra mile to ensure that every angler enjoys a safe and enjoyable experience on each outing. From cutting-edge equipment to expert advice, they leave no detail unattended to ensure that your day on the river is nothing less than extraordinary.
