Come experience what a guided smallmouth charter should be. We have over a 98 percent return rate and some of our customers fish with us up to a dozen times a year. A day in the boat with us will be one to remember and you will look forward to returning. Susquehanna Smallmouth Bass are generally very aggressive and willing to chase a moving bait. They can also grow to impressive size. We will show you how to target the biggest fish in the area using some of the newest technologies like Livescope. We will show you how to use the smallmouths agressive nature to catch them. We use equipment from Hummingbird, Garmin, Minn-Kota. Millertech, Mercury Marine, Ranger Boats and RiverPro Boats.

Susquehanna River Walleye Fishing
Susquehanna river walleye trips.
The north branch of the Susquehanna River offers some very good walleye fishing with fish approaching 10 pounds. The fall is the absolute best time to target these fish. We use Keitech Swimbaits and Rapala Jerkbaits mainly to catch these fish. The weather is usually cold so dress accordingly.
Susquehanna River Catfish Fishing
Susquehanna River Channel Catfish Fishing
After a long cold winter as soon as the water begins to warm the Susquehanna Catfish go on a feeding frenzy. This is one of the best catfish bites of the year. This is also the time to catch some of the biggest of the season. Fishing for these River Monsters this time of the year is pretty straight forward we will fish feeding areas near their wintering holes. when it comes to bait cut bait seems to do the trick but prepared baits also work at times. There is also a good amount of Flatheads in these parts of the River so a true giant is possible. These trips are fun for all ages just dress warm. These trips will run 4 to 6 hours all rods reels and bait will be provided. Give me a call and try it you will remember this adventure for years to come.
Come enjoy the best Smallmouth fishing in the Country.
We also offer Lake Ontario, along with the Finger Lakes
If you would like to fish any of these lakes we can do that.The St-Lawrence and Lake Ontario was just voted ” best bass fishery in the nation” I would have to agree, we catch smallmouth up to 7 pounds every year. When the conditions are right the fish of a lifetime is only a cast away.

Allen Casal your Guide
Your Guide
My goal is to provide you with a memorable experience whether from battling the smallmouth or the breathtaking scener. I will share with you the techniques I have learned in my 55 years of bass fishing. I am a lifelong resident of NEPA and has been fishing over 50 year. After spending many years on the Bass Tournament Trails I moved to guiding on the Susquehanna River and surrounding Pocono lake. I am a full time guide and spend about 250 days a year on the water. I am very knowledgeable on the latest techniques and lures. I will show you the latest techniques and review the basics to efficiently utilize your time. I understand not everyone wants to throw crankbaits or jerkbaits all day there are usually several patterns going on so I can usually accommodate other techniques you would rather try. l also have several other guides available so larger groups requiring more than one boat are welcome. All skill levels are also welcome. We will make whatever adjustments needed to make your trip an enjoyable and memorable experience.

Instructional Bass Fishing Trips
Instructional trips will focus more on teaching everything there is to know about a particular technique, fish habits, strategies, and or whatever you want to hone your skills on! We will talk about the situations or conditions you might face and how the fish will react to the baits your are interested in learning about. These trips will usually yield less fish but are a bargain with the knowledge gained. contact me for pricing and package.
How to Navigate the Susquehanna River
Many people ask me how to run a set of rapids or what side of the river to run. Rather then try to remember what someone told you how to run a section of river, book a Instructional session with me I will show you how to read the water so you can safely navigate any stretch of river. This is a
priceless service for new jet boaters. This will cut years off your learning curve. Contact me on pricing.
