About Your Trip

Spend a morning, afternoon, or full day exploring the legendary Susquehanna River with Captain Jeremy. Fishing out of the Middletown area, these trips focus on some of the river’s most sought-after freshwater gamefish, including Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, Muskellunge (Musky), and other seasonal species.

The Susquehanna has earned a reputation as one of the premier river fisheries in the Northeast, particularly for its outstanding Smallmouth Bass population. Depending on the season, water conditions, and your goals,
Captain Jeremy may have you casting, spinning, jigging, popping topwater lures, drifting productive runs, or utilizing other proven river fishing techniques.

Trips are available in 4-hour, 6-hour, and 8-hour formats with both morning and afternoon start times available. Whether you're looking for a quick introduction to river fishing or a full day learning the fishery, the trip can be tailored to your experience level and goals.

You'll fish from a 16' Weldcraft jon boat powered by a Yamaha outboard and equipped for navigating the Susquehanna's shallow runs, rocky structure, and productive current seams. Rods, reels, tackle, and lures are all included.

These trips are family-friendly and suitable for anglers of all skill levels. Whether you're chasing your first Smallmouth or hunting a trophy Musky, Captain Jeremy focuses on creating a fun, educational, and memorable day on the water.
