“Seeing photographs of these masterpieces do not do them justice. As a collector, they are by far in a way the most realistic and beautiful wood carvings of fresh water fish that I have ever seen. The attention to detail and customization is unprecedented. Hans is amazing to deal with and can replicate your trophy catch with pristine accuracy.
These pieces will be a focal point on display at our microbreweries in New York State (Pearl Street Grill and Brewery and Buffalo Riverworks). Hans’s artwork is expensive, but if you want absolutely the best craftsmanship in the wood reproduction business, there simply is no other choice.” .

Captain Hans is one of a kind. For starters, he is the kind of guy that you will really enjoy spending the day with. His passion for his craft is unmistakable. From the time you talk to him for the trip, to the end of the trip, he is thinking about ways to make your fishing trip memorable. He goes out of his way to be dialed in, year-round, on all the regional fish species so that when you call him, he knows where your time is best spent. If you are focused on a particular species, he will pound and cover the water with you with the most effective tackle, techniques and knowledge. His equipment is always pristine and well taken care of, and his boat…. AWESOME!!!

In my trips with Hans, we have focused on Walleye, got-em, delicious ones. Small mouth, got-em, big ones. Pike, got-em, ferocious ones. Salmon and Steel-head, got-em beautiful ones. Brownies and lakers, got-em, fat ones. And of course, MUSKY – got-em, Giant ones.

If you’re looking for a great experience with a great guy and great fishing, Captain Hans is your guy.
