Captain Daniel Nealy, who owns and operates the service, grew up in Southern Michigan with a love for freshwater fishing. His passion for river fishing developed while studying at Central Michigan University, where he particularly enjoyed fishing for Smallmouth Bass on the Chippewa River. A trip to the Pere Marquette River introduced him to Steelhead fishing, resulting in a day of catching Steelhead and a trophy Brown Trout. This experience hooked him on fishing in Michigan rivers. Daniel now lives in Alma with his wife Aleisha, their three dogs—Berkley, Caddis, and Stella—and two cats, Orvis and River. Besides running his guide service, he is also involved in youth basketball tournaments and officiating in the winter.
