    I don't often pay for guide services, but super glad we did this one. Jeremy was excellent - extremely knowledgeable, it was immediately apparent he knows his stuff, did a really good job balancing being professional and personable. We came away with our maximum catch for the day and enjoyed fresh grilled fish for dinner thanks to him.

    I just had a trip of a lifetime ! Took my family fishing, by that I mean for the first time in their lives something real other than a crappie. So with that being said, Morgan's guide service was perfect. By that I mean gracious and helpful and courteous. Captain Gary is the man !!!! It was a 5:45 trip, set out on his very comfortable boat. By 7:00 a.m. we had four in the boat. By 8:00 a.m. we are heading back to the dock. I know my girls will never be the same . Captain Gary was great explain the ins and outs of catching a striper. Help keep everybody calm when they were three on at the same time. You know how that goes lines Tangled and everybody is like oh oh. I truly could not ask for better trip. Caught seven fish one too small and two got away. That's a busy morning before 8:00 a.m. thank you thank you thank you. Captain Jeremy jumped right in there grabbed our fish and help at the fish House filleting them up. Two great guys!!!

    This trip was the best guided trip we have ever taken. Our guide was a really good guy and easy to talk to. He never stopped working and knew what he was doing. We caught alot of fish and my son pulled in the biggest small mouth he has ever caught. GREAT TRIP!!!! We can't wait to come back!!!!!

    I called Morgan's last minute to take my son fishing. We had a blast and caught several stripers and channel catfish. Tojo was our guide and knew the lake really well. He was very professional, had an extremely nice boat, and everything worked exceptional. He put us on fish within minutes when we went to one of his locations.
