The fee includes fishing rod, tackle, bait, and cleaning of your limit. All you need to bring is something to eat, drink and rain gear, if weather requires. This is for either the day or the weekend.

"I've known Steve since he started guiding. I've heard him speak at least 20 times and learn something new every time. I've fished with Steve about a half a dozen times and was never disappointed. If Steve isn't catching fish, neither is anyone else. He'll put you on the fish." -- Jerry Freadhoff, Fairbury, Illinois
