The truth about catch guarantees (and what I do guarantee)

Updated: 4 days ago

You’ve probably seen them: websites boasting “catch guaranteed!”. Sounds tempting, right? But let’s be honest — it’s marketing fluff. An empty shell.


Because no one, absolutely no one, can guarantee that a fish will bite, stay hooked, or end up in the boat.


What they actually guarantee?

That you can come back for another try if you catch nothing. That’s not a guarantee — that’s a do-over. And even then, it’s still a gamble. The fish have to bite. And no guide, no lure, and certainly no promise can guarantee that.


With me, you won’t get a catch guarantee.

What you will get:

  • The best techniques, tailored to you

  • Fishing on prime waters, at the right time

  • Premium gear: St. Croix, Shimano, Garmin Livescope

  • Honest guidance, no empty promises

  • And a fishing day built on insight, passion and going all-in


We fish the way it really is: unpredictable, challenging, addictive. No checklists, no gimmicks, no hollow promises. Just real fishing — with skill, effort and respect for the water.


So no, I don’t guarantee fish.

But I do guarantee a guide who gives everything — and usually gets something back from the water.

No catch guarantee — but the promise to go all in. Guaranteed!
