Mark was great! He got us on lots of quality fish, including some trophy size smallies! He was great with my two young boys, giving them great advice and getting them on good fish! Having Mark as our guide will be a yearly tradition!

Mark is the best fishing guide I've ever been with. He has guided me for musky, northern, walleye, bass, and perch with great success every time. When I was 12 he guided me to my biggest musky ever, 49 inches.

Mark has guided my brothers and me to dozens of muskies since I was young. Easily the best guide out there. If you want to catch muskies, you 100% should go with mark.
