About Your Trip

Experience the art of fly fishing with Captain John on the productive rivers and lakes of central Wisconsin. Whether you're a seasoned fly angler or looking to make your first cast with a fly rod, this trip offers a hands-on opportunity to learn, improve, and enjoy some of the state's most diverse freshwater fisheries.

Your adventure may take you along the Wolf River, Fox River, Lake Poygan, or Lake Butte des Morts, where you'll target
species such as Largemouth Bass, Brown Trout, Brook Trout, and Steelhead. Depending on conditions and the fishery being targeted, you'll fish from a 14' Air drift boat or step into the water and wade some of Wisconsin's most productive stretches.

Captain John provides all fly fishing equipment, including rods, reels, flies, and waders, so all you need to bring is weather-appropriate clothing and a willingness to learn. Throughout the trip, he'll share techniques, reading-water strategies, and casting tips to help anglers of all skill levels become more effective on the water.

To keep you comfortable throughout the day, snacks, water, soft drinks, and sandwiches are included. With room for up to two anglers, this is a great trip for friends, family members, or anyone looking to spend quality time on the water while chasing some incredible freshwater fish on the fly.

Independent Guide
Captain John has been passionate about fishing for as long as he can remember. After spending a lifetime on the water and developing a deep appreciation for the sport, he turned that passion into a profession in 2018 and began guiding anglers throughout Wisconsin's renowned rivers and lakes.

A dedicated fly fisherman, Captain John enjoys introducing newcomers to the sport just as much as helping experienced anglers refine their skills. His patient teaching style and enthusiasm for fly fishing make
every trip both educational and enjoyable, whether you're learning the fundamentals of casting or fine-tuning advanced techniques.

Based in Omro, Wisconsin, Captain John guides anglers on the Wolf River, Fox River, Lake Poygan, and Lake Butte des Morts, targeting a variety of freshwater game fish including Bass, Trout, and Steelhead. He believes that fly fishing is about much more than catching fish—it's about understanding the water, appreciating the outdoors, and continuously learning with every cast.

His goal on every trip is simple: provide a fun, memorable experience while helping guests build confidence and develop a lasting appreciation for fly fishing. Whether it's your first day holding a fly rod or your hundredth day on the water, Captain John is ready to help make your next fishing adventure a great one.
