Yvonne Kopy is your host at the lodge, making it a welcoming place to return to after a great day of fishing.  Comfortable accommodations, good food, and a relaxing atmosphere.  Just like home, but better! 

TIP: John is happy to work with experienced anglers as well as novices.  He has something to offer everyone.  If you're a beginner, do not be worried - John will take great care of you, and you just might bring home the biggest fish! 

Captain John says:

"I am at the point in my life, where it is more fun to help you catch that big one, than to pull on it myself."
