About Your Trip

If you're looking for non-stop rod-bending action and a great way to get kids hooked on fishing, this Freshwater Drum Trip with Captain Keith is just the ticket! Set on the scenic lakes around Muskegon, these 6-hour trips are all about fun, fast-paced fishing where landing 40+ fish in a single outing isn’t just possible—it’s the goal.

You'll climb aboard a 21’ jet boat that’s perfectly suited for chasing Drum in shallow water. With powerful jet propulsion and a smooth ride, this boat gives you access to productive areas other boats can’t reach. Whether you're a beginner learning to cast or a seasoned angler looking to keep the rod bent, Captain Keith has the gear and know-how to keep the bites coming.

These fish fight hard and bite all day long, so there's no need for an early wake-up call—trip times are flexible and designed to fit your schedule. You’ll use a mix of techniques including trolling, sight casting, jigging, and artificial lure fishing, all with light tackle to maximize the fun and feel of each catch.

Captain Keith provides all rods, reels, tackle, and live bait, so you can show up ready to fish. This trip is kid-friendly, beginner-friendly, and perfect for families or groups looking for a laid-back, high-action experience. Want to crank your favorite playlist while you're at it? Bluetooth music is welcome, and you’re free to bring your own snacks and beverages (just no glass, please).

At the end of the trip, you’ll walk away with great memories, plenty of fish photos, and maybe even a future angler or two in the family.

Bring your energy and your crew—Captain Keith will bring the fun!

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
