No experience necessary, I take care of everything.

If you wish to learn and have questions I have the experience and expertise to answer them. Some things you may be interested in learning about are rod, reel and line selection, lure selection and angling techniques, planer boards, dipsy divers, Sonar and GPS Maps, and not to mention everything about the fish you catch and the beautiful Lake Erie.
Yes fish cleaning is available. It's interesting to know that I am a member of Rapala's Pro Staff Team and Rapala is also a sponsor of mine that published an instructional fish cleaning DVD with me as the instructor and host. The DVD is called "FILLETING FISH". The DVD shows how to clean a large variety of fresh water fish including Walleye, Bass, Crappie, Panfish, Trout, Salmon, Pike and Catfish. Short clips from the video can be found on our website and Youtube.
