We hold our repeat clientele for good reason… Here’s why! We have maintained from the beginning a “hard work pays off’” mentality! Bryce is a United States Coast Guard Captain and a Licensed/Insured New York State Guide who has 20 years experience fishing & boating on Lake Champlain and its Tributaries.

“We spent a beautiful afternoon learning about Lake Champlain and seeing some great sights. My group was a bachelorette party looking to do something different & this was a great choice. Bryce was knowledgeable and answered all of our questions about the surrounding area. We stopped by the beach and some coves and had a chance to get in the water. He tailored the ECO-Tour to suit our wants and needs for our girls’ weekend away! I would definitely recommend them for fishing as well- even though I don’t fish, the boat was nice with all the modern & awesome gear on it!” - Gabrielle Slapkowski, New York
