CHARTER DAY CONSIDERATIONS
Please read prior to your charter to ensure a great experience.
BRING YOUR FISHING LICENCE
I don't sell fishing licences. Children under 18 are deemed to have a Conservation License. Seniors (65+) are deemed to have a Sportsman license. You may catch musky with a conservation license, but you may not keep them. Licenses are available online or at the Home Hardware in town.
WASHROOMS
On shore washroom facilities are never more than a few minutes away.
WHAT TO WEAR
If it feels warm on land and you get out to the middle of the lake, the clouds come out and the wind picks up – it will feel MUCH colder; vice versa, if it feels cold on land and the wind dies down and the sun comes out – it will feel a LOT warmer. Tip: Light coloured clothes in hot weather; Dark coloured clothes in cold weather.
It would be wise to pack appropriate clothing and even clothing that may not seem appropriate.
(Polarized) sunglasses, sun block and a broad brimmed shade cap are a good idea even on a cloudy day.
SNACKS AND REFRESHMENTS
Bring any refreshments or snacks that you deem necessary for your duration in the boat. Please be aware that alcohol is strictly prohibited in my boat. Facilities are available on shore.
PHOTOS
Leave it to me, I'll be sure to get a high quality photo of your catch as we want to get the fish back in the water as fast as possible. These photos might be uploaded to my website and/or used in promotional material. You are welcome to take photos throughout the day as well.
WEATHER
If there is a small craft weather warning, we won’t be going fishing and this issue may come up just before. If it’s just drizzling, I will be expecting you.
EQUIPMENT
I supply all the equipment and tackle, but you’re quite welcome to bring your own.
THE CATCH
There’s no guarantee you will catch a specific fish species, especially Musky. Some people go their whole life without catching one, but I will do my best to get one on your line.
Only legal fish will be kept as I can be charged also. I like to practice catch and release, but if you’re keeping a few fish (enough for a meal only), bring an empty cooler in your car. I don’t clean or prepare fish. Any bass over 2lbs will be thrown back.
SAFETY FIRST
We are fishing with razor sharp hooks, please ensure you are in control of your (and your child’s) equipment. Liability limited (where applicable) to refund only.
