Chicago Bass Fishing

Capt. Ryan Witacre

Come experience one of the most unique bass fishing locations in the country! 

People are shocked at how good the smallmouth bass fishing is within sight of the iconic Chicago skyline. I have spent over 20 years with southern Lake Michigan as my home fishery and am happy to be able to share this experience with you. 

Casting artificial lures on medium, to medium light spinning tackle is my preferred way to target these fish. Catching a 3lb + smallmouth on light tackle is something every angler should experience.  Let me eliminate the hassle of towing a boat through the traffic and city streets and show you what this often stellar fishery has to offer.

Erik Brztowski

I'm 22 years old and I have fished since I was 11 years old.  My family has had a cabin up in central Wisconsin and I've been fishing the Wisconsin River for over 10 years and I've fallen in love with the fishery. I also guide on surrounding lakes in the area. When you book a trip with me expect to not only catch fish, but to learn how to have a good day on the water and locate fish. My goal is to cater to your needs, whether you just want to go out and catch fish or focus on learning. We can mold our day to your liking!
