We went out on Lake Tahoe around 10 a.m.. It was a beautiful day with calm waters. Captain Brad explained where we were fishing and why. He also explained the fish that we may catch. We caught lots of fish that Captain Brad filleted for us and put into a plastic bag for us to transport home. They were very tasty. We had a great time fishing with Captain Brad.

Captain Brad worked his butt off the whole trip and knows what to do. We started off slow and by the end of the trip it was one fish after another. Once warmed up 4 pounders seemed to be the bottom. Brad was constantly doing the subtle things that get the fish on. All equipment ready to fish and has the right stuff. Thank you!!

My son and I had a great outing with Brad. He targeted the pods of mackinaw and had us catching fish from the gate. We were able to keep a couple of nice lake trout and let the rest go. Brad filleted the fish and we prepared them for dinner that night I would definitely do this trip again.
