Description
These are 4-5 hour trips usually starting at 6:00am.
Susquehanna River 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 5 hours all rods reels and bait will be provided.
You will remember this adventure for years to come!
**Price is for the boat, not per person. Based on 2 anglers.**

I am a lifelong resident of NEPA and have been fishing over 50 years. 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. All skill levels are welcome. We will make whatever adjustments needed to make your trip an enjoyable and memorable experience.

CPR: Catch Photo and Release: All Bass will be released in order to maintain this world class fishery. Catfish and walleye under 21 inches may be kept.
Capacity: I can accommodate two adults or one adult and two children. I have other boats available if other anglers wish to come along.
Pa.fishing license: You must have your PA Fishing License with you and displayed no exceptions.
Fowl Weather: You will need to bring your rain gear hopefully you won’t need it but you never know. Bring enough warm clothes I have ample storage for extra gear. Sunglasses are a must not only to see the structure but also for eye protection.
Equipment: If you choose to use my equipment you will be using very high quality Denali Kovert Rods paired with Lews Reels, each one of these outfits cost in excess of $300 That being said if you drop one in you will be charged the replacement cost. As always you are welcome to bring your own gear.
Weather and Water: We fish rain or shine as long as there is no Lightning in the area. If we are faced with heavy winds I will make the call. Usually anything over a 20 mph wind will need to be rescheduled.
High Water: I understand everyone wants a perfect day with perfect flows, unfortunately that is not river fishing. As long as the Wilkes-Barre gauge is below six feet and not raising we can safely fish the river. If it is above six feet we can fish a lake or reschedule.
Please note, there is a 50% nonrefundable deposit included with your payment when booking.
