We only had one 4hr day to fish, and had 25mph winds. We caught over 13 fish and had a memorable experience… reasons to get a guide like Jake… he’ll make your time worth while and make it happen for you… strongly recommend!

Half Day Weekend Trip (AM)
The weather was messing with us all day, sometimes the wind would be perfect and other times it was kicking up the water making for some big chop. throughout all the day captain Jake put us on the fish. Captain Jake also gave us some great cooking tips for white bass that made dinner great. looking forward to booking this trip again.
