Eric's Guiding Seasons
Brown Trout
World Class Fishery - Southeastern Wisconsin and Lake Michigan combine for world record Brown Trout fishing. Infact, the IFGA World Record was caught by Eric in the Milwaukee Harbor. Eric chases these giants at many points throughout the year.
Spring
March-Steelhead and Brown Trout Fishing from shore or boat. Spring is a great time to Steelhead fish in the rivers with float rods and fly fishing. We also catch some of the biggest Browns of the season at ice out so March is a great time for Trophy Brown Trout. We offer shore fishing opportunities in spring for world class trout fishing.
April-Spring Trophy Walleye-when the ice melts in Green Bay its time for me to put down my trout rods and start casting plastics, blade baits,ripping raps, jigs, and also trolling at night fish for giant walleyes. This is the time of year when all big walleyes of Green Bay move shallow to spawn. We fish in the rivers and in Green Bay depending on where the fish are in the spawning process. We guide on the Peshtigo River, Menomonee River, Fox River and both sides of Green Bay including Sturgeon Bay. We also catch our share of giant Northern Pike in spring.
May- Trophy Smallmouth Bass- Big Smallmouth Bass are one of my favorite fresh water fish. In Green Bay and Sturgeon Bay there is a World Class Fishery. We will teach you how to catch these tricky clear water monster fish.on jerk baits, hair jigs, tubes, Alabama Rigs, drop shotting, sight fishing,swim bait fishing with 100 percent catch and release on all big bass.
