We joined another couple that day (cutting the price in half) for a glorious private speed boat tour of Bear and Devil's Island. We didn't have to navigate the challenging waves with kayaks, were able to cover much ground in significantly less time and were still able to get an intimate tour of the best sea caves as Pete deftly navigated the vessel in and out of the caves. We wound up having a much better tour and saved enough money to pay for the previous nights dinner in the process. HIGHLY RECOMMENED!!!

We had a wonderful time. Be sure to give them a try and also check out their shop. Thanks!! July 2016 - We discovered these folks from a pamphlet we picked up in a restaurant down in Ashland. We had planned on going to Michigan for a day trip, but with the terrible storm damage and wash outs - decided to change our plans. Let me just say our Sea Cave trip with captain Mike could not have been any better! We had such a great time. The boat was so fun and fast. The lake and caves were great. And Mike was very personable and knowledgeable. Also, their gift shop is very nice too. I highly recommend. And the only thing I'm disappointed about, is the fact that we didn't discover them sooner. Our trip was ABSOLUTELY GREAT. Hard working people - helping families build lasting vacation memories. Highly recommend!!!!!!! Thanks again!!!!! Jamie Independence Iowa

We met Bob at the appointed time (early morning!) at the boat launch. I helped him launch his fishing boat into the lake and we were off. Bob is a very friendly older guy whose background was in sales, I believe. Now in retirement,he runs these fishing trips and is also involved with local government and administration. His boat is great and had everything we needed for a successful experience: poles, bait, a sonar fish finder and an aerated fish keeper for our catches. I wanted to hire a guide because I like fishing but I usually suck at it, so except for a few times it's been disappointing. Not this time. Bob knew the areas of the lakes we were on that usually had fish and put his finder to use. We caught some smaller stuff that we had to throw back. Eventually I managed to land a really nice Northern Pike and later in the day he took us to an area full of pan fish (bluegills, pumpkinseeds, etc) and we pulled in a whole bunch of them as there's no limits on them. After we were done he followed us back to our cabin and cleaned and filleted the fish for us (I knew how to do the smaller fish but would have made a mess of the pike, it's totally different). He recommended Gooch's as a place to get great fried chicken and was on his way. We did eat at Gooch's a couple days later and it was good, but we ate most of the fish over the next couple days and I've never had such delicious fish. Fresh picked is a thing for fruit and vegetables and fresh caught is a thing for fish! Anyway, if you're in the area and want a great time fishing with an experienced guide, you can't go wrong with Bob.

I certainly recommend them and will be back in the spring.
