Let's GO FISHING!
The only thing you have to pay for is a state specific DNR Fishing License. We accept donations from sponsors to pay our guides so the trip is FREE for all those who have served. "The only catch is the fish!"
Our guides give us a special discounted rate for their services and we gladly pay them to provide a 1st Class fishing experience so, at minimum, their expenses are covered.
Tipping is customary in the guide business and if you'd like to show your appreciation for their work it is your right to tip. Tips are generally appreciated and usually a measure of how well the day went.
Each Vet, Active Military or participant can bring a guest or two for inland lake trips. 1-3 people total.
The participant can bring whoever they are going to have the best day with--friends, family, fellow Veteran anglers, etc.
We can even try to pair you up with another Veteran. Please let us know.

Sun Screen to an Ice Fishing Suit. Be prepared for the weather! It is normally colder on the water, especially, when windy. A wind breaker is never a bad idea.
Layer up to adjust to cold or warmth throughout the day. Non-marking / clean shoes preferred.
Rain gear may be needed if rain is in the forecast. Please call your guide with any last minute questions before your trip.
If you are bringing children please bring your own (properly fitting) life vests. We have more than enough Adult sized life preservers onboard and appreciate your help to ensure the safety of the kids. Thank you!
Feel free to bring whatever keeps you powered up to catch the most fish!
Dramamine is your best bet, but don't take it too late! We recommend taking your dose of dramamine the night before your trip so you sleep well and it has time to fully absorb in your system.
Spray on Sunscreen (causes multiple hazards: surfaces get too slick and suncreen damages electronics and interiror components. Orange snacks (cheetos, doritos, etc.). Bananas or anything Banana Related: JUST PLAIN BAD LUCK. See link for more detail.
