Born and raised in Muskegon, Michigan, Kyle Buck, 30, grew up fishing in the West Michigan area. From the big lake, the rivers, and local inland lakes, you'd be hard pressed to find someone with as much know-how and savvy when it comes to freshwater fishing.

As far back as he can remember, Kyle has been involved in the fishing industry. His first job was giving fishing advice to anglers from Shoreline Service Bait and Tackle Shop. At the age of 13 he started fishing local bass tournaments. Within 10 years, he was sponsored on several state and national bass circuits.

However, the call to come home had been ringing for a while. He currently chases what he grew up going after - trophy fish in the river and on Lake Michigan. From the beginning anglers to the most hardcore, booking a trip with Kyle will be exactly what you're after!

Guide Jeff Cooke is also a native of Muskegon. Like Kyle, he grew up fishing the area's vast watershed. Fishing with his dad since toddler age, he honed his fly rod skills on bedding bluegills on Little Black Lake.

After attaining a degree in Natural Resources Communications at Michigan State University, he went to work pursuing his dream of officiating the highest levels of professional hockey. After several years of chasing the dream, Jeff has returned to his first love, fishing.

Jeff's specialty and passion in fly fishing. From casting instruction to entomology to fly typing, his favorite fishing memories aren't of trophy fish, but passing on the passion to future anglers and seeing the smile on their face when they catch the first of many fish.

Jeff splits time between West Michigan and Vail, Colorado where he guides the Eagle, Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers for Gore Creek Fly Fisherman. Book a trip with him today and see why he returns from the mountains to steward the waters that brought him back home.

Allen grew up just south of Coldwater Michigan fishing on inland lakes and rivers. He spent every minute that he could at his parents cabin in Dublin Michigan fishing on the Pere Marquette and Big Manistee Rivers.
