WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING?

You will need to bring your fishing license. If you do not have one you may obtain one through, Fish Wildlife & Parks Make sure you are dressing according to the weather and pack sunblock. It is a good practice to layer up, its better to have to remove items rather than needing to bundle up. Mornings can always start out cold and evening charters tend to get chilly as the day goes. If you are joining us for ICE FISHING please refrain from wearing tennis shoes as you will be on the ice. We do provide chips, soda and water. If you prefer to bring your own snacks you are more than welcome to.

WILL THERE BE A BATHROOM?

Yes, but please use bathroom facilities prior to your charter as the bathroom on the boats are for tinkles only.

WILL WE BE GUARANTEED TO CATCH A FISH?

With fishing there is no fish catch guarantee. You will however have the option to catch and release or keep what you catch as long as it follows the Fish Wildlife, and Parks guidelines. https://fwp.mt.gov/fish/regulations

CAN I TIP THE CAPTAIN?

Tips are always appreciated! If you had a good time on you charter you are welcome to tip the captain at your discretion. Tips can be done by cash or credit card. ☺

WILL OUR PICTURES BE TAKEN?
