Here's my two cents on hiring Tom for a "first time" at CC. It is worth every cents. Not only do you get a professional view of one of the top muskie lakes in Ohio, but Tom truly gives you quality helpful information. From rod and reel setup to lure selection. The biggest bonus..... Tom personable approach and attitude toward muskie fishing. The whole experience is first rate. I can't wait for my next trip out with Tom. YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY!!!!
