Experience the Best Guided Fishing Charters in Northwoods with L.V.O. Sportfishing

Experience the best of the Northwoods with L.V.O. Sportfishing, your premier choice for guided fishing charters in Lincoln, Vilas, and Oneida counties. Take advantage of our expertise in targeting various fish species including Walleye, Northern Pike, Bass, Crappie, Musky, Sunfish, Lake Trout, Lake Whitefish, and more. Cast, troll, jig, bottom fish, or try a specialized technique like sharpshooting. Keep your legal limit catch or practice catch and release to conserve the resource. Captain Tim can even clean your catch for you. Prepare a cooler in advance for convenience.

Your charter will be aboard a 19' Alumacraft 185 competitor tiller, accommodating up to 3 passengers. We provide rods, reels, tackle, and live bait as needed. Count on us for high-quality gear and state-of-the-art electronics. Last year, Mega-live revolutionized fishing, and Captain Tim is excited to discover new patterns with this technology.

Prior to the trip, each person in your group must obtain a Wisconsin fishing license and sign a digital liability waiver. Remember to bring sunglasses, sunblock, snacks, drinks, and a hat for your comfort. Children are welcome on board, and those under 12 years old fish for free. Don't forget to bring a suitable-sized life jacket for your child's safety.

"I guarantee a day filled with fun, education, and laughter on the water!" - Captain Tim Buffington.
