I went on a Muskie charter to try and hook on to my first muskie, and even though it didn’t happen it DID NOT deter me from having an absolute blast! Brian was absolutely fun to fish with. Very sociable, knowledgeable of fish(ing) and the region (Bald Eagle Lake), and I’d argue a great guy overall.
    What really made the trip for me was that it was my buddy’s birthday and he’d never caught anything other than a panfish. Once we revealed that to Brian it wasn’t more than 5 minutes of dropshotting and he caught his first bass. Another 20 minutes goes by and he catches a beautiful, healthy 2.5 lbs Largemouth Bass. I wouldn’t go to any guide other than Brian.
    Thanks Brian!

My son and I had a great time today with Brian.  Brian got us on the fish and we landed our first Muskie within the first 20 minutes.  Our luck ended there with landing anymore fish… but that was alright as the rest of the day we had a blast as Brian entertained us with stories and jokes.  Even when the weather turned on us Brian was more than willing to stay with us and worked hard to find us the fish…too bad they weren’t cooperating.  But that is why they call it fishing and not catching.  But Brian’s great humor and friendly nature made this a trip to remember.  He even gave my son a couple lures to try out on his own and a shirt and a cap.  Thanks Brian for such a great day.  If your in the area and want to get where the fish are….Brian will get you there and keep you entertained along the way.  We will be back again!!!!

My son and I went on a full day musky trip with captain Brian. We didn’t know what to expect but he told us it is 98% relaxation and 2% chaos. He was right! we did the morning on Minnetonka and had a 2 follows and 1 little bump. However…we felt good and then met up later in bald eagle lake and about 2 hours in my son landed his first musky…a nice 42 inch about 38 pounder…it was a beauty. We had 1 more follow and 1 more surface strike which was a big probably 50 incher that we saw 20 feet out but it spat it it and never took the bait…all in all a great trip. Brian was great and awesome with both my son and I and was extremely knowledgeable…especially for 2 Muskie rookies.  Great day trip and I will definitely be calling again to take me and my other son out in the future. Highly recommended to everyone.

We had the best time fishing for the first time in Minnesota. Capt. Brian was so helpful and explained things to us about the area and the different type of fish to catch in Minnesota. We caught large mouth bass. 9 edible, three trophy size that we threw back in the lake after photos and measurement’s. The first was 17 1/2 inches, the second was 18 1/2 inches and the third was 19 1/4 inches and wt. was about 5.2 pounds. Our trip was a 5 pm to 9 pm, the fishing was GREAT!! The sun set was spectacular!! The Capt. (Brian Koshenina) is the BEST!!!! When we go back to Minnesota he is a must call to go fishing with, We can’t thank him enough for the fabulous time he showed us.

My son and I were in town briefly and scheduled a last minute trip with Brian. He is an amazing guide and I would highly recommend his services. He was totally patient and helpful getting us going as we are used to fly fishing for trout. My 13 year old son and I caught about 20-30 fish from Walleye, Bass, crappie, and blue gills in a short 4 hours. Brian is totally personable, and was a true pleasure to have as a guide. The boat was very well set up, and we always had a rod with fresh bait in hand. Highly recommended for anyone looking to have a great time, and a a great price for the service provided.
