“Awesome trip, Chubs is great. 100% recommend, I will definitely be coming back. Everyone on the boat caught their limit on walleye. Hit him up if you want to crush fish and have a good time ”

“Jordan was a great guide for us. He was very accommodating for my son, who is in a wheelchair and was super pleasant, answering all of his questions. Even better, he put us onto a lot of fish!! I’d absolutely go out with him again! ”
