Guide Season at Collins is September thru May.  We take the summer months off to let the pleasure boaters enjoy all that Collins Lake has to offer.  

Join Cal Kellogg and/ or Wes Ward for a day of ON THE WATER Fun, Fishing, Laughs, and Instruction.

This isn’t a traditional guided trip.  Cal Kellogg’s School of Fishing is designed to give you first hand access to Cal’s 30+ years of trout fishing knowledge and tactics so you can walk off the boat with the knowledge and confidence to CATCH MORE AND BIGGER FISH at any lake.

Cal holds no secrets when it comes to Trout Fishing.  His proven tactics can be applied to your local honey hole or to find success at unfamiliar lakes that may be on your bucket list.
