Joyce and Michael from Austin, Texas enjoy a beautiful day on West Bay. Traverse City was beautiful today!

Lexi from Indy gets some tips from captain Sam as she reels her first fish ever to the Showtime. She did it too!

email received 7-27-10:
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. :-)

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.

Captain Sam is interviewed by TV 9 & 10 for his reaction to Traverse City being designated a Coast Guard City. Its a great honor for us as there are only 10 CG cities within the US!
