This is the second trip we've taken with True Blue Charters. We didn't think the first trip could…read morebe beat, but the crew has done it again! Our last charter was with Capt Brian and we can't say enough good things about him! Capt Brian's son Luke took the reigns this charter. Our crew today consisted of Luke and Derrick. Luke and Derrick were personable, knowledgeable, and just down right awesome. It helps that Luke has been fishing basically since he was born and he's been in several tournaments through out his life. Derrick also works at the marina and is very knowledgeable as well. We left the dock around 7:15 AM and were catching fish by 7:30. We caught three lake trout right off the bat. In the downtime between reeling in fish, we talked with each other as well as Luke and Derrick and had a blast just relaxing out in the bay. We made two loops in the bay and caught about 9 fish total, only throwing one back in the bay due to size and the limit. There's a limit of two fish per person. We were very happy with our catch! To top it off, Derrick gutted and cleaned our fish for us right there on the dock! We will be back. This crew takes credit cards. Also you can put the tip on your card. One nice thing about True Blue is they always make sure to give the primary (guest who pays) a little privacy so the whole crew doesn't overhear the cost or your tip amount. Oh! I almost forgot. We had our trip scheduled for June 23, but had some family events happen that prevented us from being able to fish that weekend. I texted Brian around June 9 and was like hey we can't make it, but want to reschedule. He responded almost immediately with dates he had available, even going as far as to offer up his Fathers Day for us. He said he'd get us in on June 16. That's right, he jumped at the chance to accommodate us and this crew gave up their morning the Saturday before Fathers Day to take us out on a week's notice.

Captain Brian and crew really know what they are doing. They put us on some big salmon first thing…read morein the morning. We kept getting bites and the salmon were just ripping! We filled the box with lake trout in about 3 hours. They made it look like it was easy! You can tell they generally want you to have a good time and catch fish. Their gear is top notch. There's plenty of room on the boat for up to 6 people, maybe more (this is just my opinion). They have excellent gear with a combination of mono, braid, steel, and copper lines to get down to the fish. They have more lures than Bass Pro Shop and rotate through a ton of choices to find out what the fish are liking at that time. For our trip, they only had a short distance to travel to the fishing hole so this maximized our reel time. Their boat has a state of the art probe that measures water temp and current to pin point the best lure placement and trolling speed. We had an excellent time catching fish and telling fish lies (stories) in between bites. You definitely get your money's worth on this boat!

From…read morestart to finish, it was a wonderful experience and easily one of the highlights of our time in Traverse City. A huge shoutout to the crew -- Nate, Kate, and Chris. They were professional, courteous, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. They shared so much interesting information about Grand Traverse Bay, the Traverse City area, and the Wind Dancer itself, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The food, snacks, beer, wine, and cocktails were all excellent, and we especially loved that they featured local companies and businesses throughout the experience. It was a great way to experience Traverse City while enjoying an absolutely beautiful evening on the water. The combination of the beautiful boat, incredible crew, local food and drinks, and an amazing sunset made for a memorable evening. We would absolutely do it again. 10/10 would recommend the Wind Dancer to anyone visiting Traverse City -- it's a must-do experience!

We had booked a limo about a month ago for our bachelorette party, driver shows up with an old disgusting van because the limo "broke down." The company didn't even have the decency to call us and let us know before showing up with this atrocity of a vehicle. If they had, we could have had a little time to at least look for a different limousine to rent for the bachelorette party. Instead, the driver shows up and unapologetically announces that the limo we reserved was unavailable. We tried to talk to him and see if there was any way we could get what we were supposed to be paying for. APPARENTLY this company only has ONE limousine. HOW DOES A SERVICE SUCH AS THIS HAVE ONLY ONE LIMO? Astounding. Also- icing on the cake- the driver was absolutely maniacal. He whipped the van around curves way too fast. We also did a little off roading. We thought for sure we would toss our cookies and/or meet our makers. I had to call several times to speak with Mike who is supposedly the person one must talk to in order to "make things right". I left two voicemails and continued calling. While the rest of my party was tasting wine, I was sitting in the parlor trying to get ahold of this man. I finally got through, and he continuously talked over me just making things worse. He ended up giving us somewhat of a discount, but no discount could have made up for this... experience. ALSO this was a return visit for us. The first time we had these guys, they gave us the wrong vehicle as well. Long story short, if you want an event full of sickness and uncertainty, these guys are great. Spectacular even. But for a once in a lifetime event where you want what you pay for, stay away.
