The Bay of Green Bay and the Fox River provide some of the hottest big fish action in the world. Trophy fish over fifty inches and multiple fish days are common occurrences on board my boat.
A Spring or Summer trip on the Bay will be made up of a mixture of casting and trolling, with an emphasis on casting. Fall trips are predominatly trolling with some occasional casting. Just bring a good attitude and a willingness to try new techniques that will produce fish!
The historic musky waters of Northern and Central Wisconsin still harbor some of the finest fishing in the country! Whether you are looking for your first musky or a trophy class fish, the thousands of lakes and rivers available are sure to provide the trip of a lifetime!
In a day of fishing you can expect to learn how to pattern muskys on a day to day basis, as well as some of the best trolling techniques for Giant Musky!
All musky trips are strictly catch and release only! No muskies will be kept in my boat! Please check out www.laxreproductions.com for info on replica mounts.

Small Boat Trout and Salmon Fishing Trips
Prime Dates:
Spring Brown Trout, Ice out through May
Spring Stream steelhead, March through May
Lake Michigan Trout and Salmon, June through September
Trip Details:
Fast action and huge fish are what Lake Michigan trout and salmon are all about. Early spring brings some fantastic fishing for tasty hard fighting brown trout.
My Trout and Salmon trips are done out of my 20'6" Tuffy 2060. Being in a smaller "walleye" boat give the angler a better feel and fight! These trips are for the fisherman who likes to be involved in the action and setting of lines, rather than just sitting back and cranking them in on the big boats. If you want to be in on all the action, this is the trip for you!
As summer begins the salmon action takes off! Limit catches of king salmon, cohos, and rainbow trout can be expected. The best part is I clean and bag all the fish before you leave!
Just bring a cooler and ice to take your catch home!
