Captain Ryan Art has been passionate about fishing since he was a child, spending countless hours on the Great Lakes with his father. These early experiences fostered a deep appreciation for the sport and the natural environment. His commitment to fishing goes beyond personal enjoyment, as he actively participates in tournaments and values the opportunity to share memorable experiences with others. Seeing the joy on his clients’ faces when they catch fish is one of his greatest rewards.

His careful preparation and dedication to customer satisfaction ensure that each trip is both successful and enjoyable. Whether pursuing salmon, lake trout, or steelhead, he creates an experience that combines skillful fishing with time spent appreciating the beauty of the Great Lakes.

Heavy tackle is essential for reeling in larger fish like salmon and lake trout, providing strength and control. Trolling, which involves dragging lures or bait behind the boat, allows him to cover large areas and fish at different depths. This adaptable approach suits the varied conditions of the Great Lakes, helping maximize catches and provide an engaging trip for all.
