Hey Cam, Nice day on the lake today, we had a lot of fun and whole lot of laughs with both you and Sam. Thanks for the fantastic fishing trip on Lake Michigan. Our freezer is filled with King Salmon and Trout. You both worked very hard to make a memorable experience for out family fishing trip. Steve is still bragging about catching the first fish, biggest fish and last fish. Will see next August for the Salmon season. Thanks again to both of you for all the fun. Jim

Hi Cam and Sam, Wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed the fishing excursion with you last Thursday morning. It was an absolutely fabulous day to be on the lake and enjoy the calm peaceful waters, and what a bonus--fish too! Our son Chris booked this adventure to give his girls, Katie and Lexi a chance to reel in their first catches, ever. And what success we had! Certainly your expertise in navigating the Bay and knowing just where to drop those lines for a fun and exciting day! We truly appreciated your patience with a group of inexperienced fisherman(I guess I can call ourselves that!) Thanks, also for the recommendation of Apache Trout Grill! Sam divided our catch in half so that we could enjoy a very tasty lunch, then froze the rest for another creative meal later as we remember our fun on the lake. We look forward to booking another outing during future vacations up north. Thanks again!
Jan Scherzinger and the whole Scherzinger family. :-)

Liam, today's birthday boy, working a trout to the dinner table. Happy birthday Indiana Liam! Proud Mom, Molly in background.

Here's our birthday boy, Andrew at 6, with one of the trout he caught today. Happy birthday buddy!

Rachel holds up a 13 pound trout, one of the biggest of the year. With the size limits we have in West Bay this guy goes back into the lake to spawn. Really enjoyed spending time with Rachel and Scott and their wonderful family from Kansas.
