  • Kyle was an excellent captain and knew where to go and exactly how long to wait for the best bites. my nephew and i caught multiple fish that were great fights and Kyle talked us thru it like a champ. i would highly recommend Captain Kyle for your fishing expeditions.

  • I hired Captain Kyle to guide myself and my two college children over Christmas. It was the coldest, windiest day of the year and I didn’t think we would even go out, but he made it happen because it was my last day my kids were at home. We targeted a different species of fish than originally planned, but ended up catching around 15 lady fish and 20-25 Trout. We had a great day and can’t wait to go out next time my kids are home.
