Capt. Matt Raley
Matt has been fishing since he could hold a pole in his hand. He was given a rod with a washer on the end so he wouldn't hook himself, but he would sit on the dock and hope to catch a fish for hours. Eventually he was upgraded to a real hook where he could start catching fish. At the age of 12 he started fishing on a regular basis, and at the age of 17 he bought his first boat. From there things kept growning along with upgrading boats on several occassions. Now matt runs a 17' lund. During the summer of 2006 and 2007 Matt spent the summers leading guide trips in Marinette county at a fishing club where he completed over 100 successful guide trips. After that Matt ventured out on his own and has been guiding ever since. Matt is well known for his hunting abilities, and wanted to get his fishing skills out to the public so he and one of his fishing partners decided to start a production company and film their muskie fishing adventures. During the 2009 season Matt will continue filming a new video or two, guide and fish in the Wisconsin Musky Tour tournament series throughout Wisconsin.
Guides:
Nate Osfar
Nate is a great musky fisherman. He has the hardware and numerous big fish to prove it. He has won over $45,000 dollars in cash and prizes in musky tournaments in 2011 alone. He boats some impressive fall fish! Nate grew up in Stevens Point, WI which is a good area for musky fishing. During college Nate's parents moved to Northern WI. This is when Nate really cut his teeth in musky fishing. Nate always thinks outside the box when it comes to musky fishing. He loves fishing deeper water than the rest. He is always looking to find open water bait and targets un pressured fish looking to feed. Besides muskies nate is a great walleye fisherman. He can catch a good stringer eater walleyes.
Capt. Jeff Van Remortel
Capt. Jeff Van Remortel runs fishing trips for musky, bass, and walleye. He also runs a lot of my Green Bay and Lake Michigan duck hunts. Capt. Jeff is on the water more than he is on dry land. Trust me I know this since I have lived with Jeff for a couple years. He is always on the water searching new ways to catch fish no matter if it's bluegills, Small Mouth Bass, Walleyes, or Muskies. The biggest thing to being a good guide is being on the water and staying with the fish. They move and patterns change. Thats why being on the water as much as possible is important to being a good fishing or hunting guide.
