Reviews of Happy Hooker Charters
My husband and I (as well as our two boys ages 2 & 4) had an excellent time with Captain Paul and Jason on our fishing charter. They were trying everything they could to try and catch us a fish...and we caught one which we were all excited about! They explained to us that we
The reviews were spot on. We went out with Matt and Justin, These guys are awesome, super friendly, helpful, put us right on the fish. Lots of good laughs! Highly recommend!
Captain Riley was fantastic in every way. He has a great knowledge of fishing, his boat, the lake and also the Duluth region. To top that off he was incredibly friendly with everyone in our group and our day on the water with him could not have been better. Thanks Riley, we look forward to our next charter!
The trip was great. Would recommend the Looper to anybody looking for a fun day. The time went by to fast..
Captain Paul and first mate, Birch, took great care of us and put us on some big lakers! Definitely a successful day of fishing!!
We had Captain Marty and he and his first mate were awesome. Fishing was slow but he worked hard to try and find fish and we were able to bring fish home! Thanks to all!
The 6 of us had a great time. Matt put us right in the fish. Justin was amazing and so helpful. One critique I do have is we were asked twice if we have enough fish yet. The first time I thought he was kidding.We had 4 different households fishing that day and would distribute to about 7. For $625 plus tip I don't think that should have been asked. I understand conservation but none of our catch was frozen. My house alone had 4 meals plus smoked a bunch to share. We were done early so we got a scenic boatride back. My thought was instead of that maybe it should have been we can take our time back or knock some off the price. Again. I would book and will book again but just wanted to give you a couple things to think about.
The husband's and mine first time doing a charter fishing through y'all. We were not disappointed! We both had lots of fun and captain Marty and Reid were both very helpful and amusing! Thank you both for the fishing and fun times!
Jamie and Jake were personable, friendly, and kept the humor going. We had a blast!
My husband and I took a 2 week road trip in our 5th wheel thru several states. We wanted to fish Lake Superior because neither of us had ever fished it. My husband found Happy Hooker Charters on the web and after reading all the wonderful reviews, we decided to book with them.
Our group had a great time with Dave and Mel keeping us entertained throughout the day on a calm-wind tough bite, but did end up with a few bags of filets.
This was our first time booking a fishing trip with Happy Hookers. Loved it! The boats were very clean. Our Captain Peter and our First Mate Jon were great. Very friendly, very nice and wanted to make sure we were having a good time. We went out the beginning of June for
What an AWESOME day!! Dave and Mel put us right on the fish, great guides, answered all our questions and so many humourous laughs! Already rebooked for June of next year!
Went on a half-day morning trip with my family over 4th of July holiday. We had the time of our lives, including our 3 and 5 year-old kids (just make sure to bring child life jackets). We caught a few salmon and a monster lake trout. Had a fish fry the next day back in Twin
We had a half day morning trip with Dave at the end of may. We had a blast! He got us on fish right away but more important he was just an overall fun guy to fish with. We will be back next year! Thanks for the trip!
The experience was extremely enjoyable! The service, atmosphere and visiting with Captain Peter and his sidekick Mel was great fun and top notch!! Captain Peter has a great heart! Thank you so much! We will be back!!! Art & Shonie Wahpeton, ND
We had a fabulous trip with Capt. Nathan and his first mate, Jake. They worked the poles but allowed three teenage grandsons, their moms and their grandma reel in the trout! Lots of knowledge, lots of fun.
Capt. Riley Leslie was an excellent guide. One member of our group, Adele, had not fished very much. He did an excellent job of explaining what was happening with all of the outriggers, boards, etc. When she hooked a good size king salmon, he talked her through landing it without getting directly involved. Capt. Riley cleaned the fish we caught--several king salmon and trout; we had a great dinner when we got home. The North Shore is a great place to visit.We plan to return !
We had an awesome experience with Captain Jim and Captain Brody. We have never been fishing in a Great Lake and they gave us memories to last a life time. They were very knowledgeable about their craft and the area. It was a great day on the water. We caught more fish than expected. And it was VERY satisfying to catch the largest fish of the trip, I think even Jim and Brody were impressed with its size. Two thumbs up....highly recommend if you are thinking about a Lake Superior fishing trip!
It was a great time, caught fish to bring home! The capt and mate were wonderful. Would highly recommend Peter!!
Great experience for six family members. The bonus was catching limits of Lake Trout.
Thanks to Captain Peter for rescheduling our our trip. It turned out to be a great one. The boys learned so much from the Captain and mate. It may have been a little chilly out but we all enjoyed it . We are looking forward to another trip next year.
We had an incredible fishing experience!! Captain Dave and First Mate Mike were awesome!! We are definitely going to do this again!!
Had a good time, Riley and JR did a great job and we got some pretty good fish. We went out for my son‘s 18th birthday so it was pretty cool for him first lake trout first king salmon, will be back! Thanks guys! Troy and Nick
