Jack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Captain Mike demonstrates exceptional skill managing multiple lines while maintaining his boat, often working 12 rods simultaneously for groups on Lake Ontario. His deep knowledge spans all species in the lake, from salmon to steelhead to lake trout, built from decades of experience. Even on tough fishing days, Mike extends trips and adjusts tactics to give customers the best possible chances at success. Mike's infectious enthusiasm and what he calls his "coaching" style creates memorable experiences that keep customers smiling and coming back. Long-term clients have fished with him for over 25 years, consistently catching fish and enjoying his high-energy approach. His genuine care for the customer experience shows when he goes the extra mile, and many guests are already planning return trips before their current one ends.

Trip - Cayuga Lake Fishing Charter for Salmon and Trout on May 12, 2025

5:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Captain Mike really worked hard for our group. He's an incredible Captain he had 12 rods working for us while maintaining the boat. Tremendous energy and knowledge built from a lifetime on the water. He has unbridled enthusiasm and loves catching fish. His "coaching" as he calls it will certainly make you smile. Thanks Captain Mike for a great time!!

Captain Mike was excellent, though the fish just weren’t biting that day. He even extended the trip to give us more chances, and we managed to land two Lake Trout. You could tell he really cared about our experience. Some days the fishing is slow, but overall we still had a great time.
