 MEET YOUR GUIDE:

Alan J. Nute (AJ) has fished on Lake Winnipesaukee for over 50 years trolling for Salmon & Trout.  His passion and knowledge of fishing started at age 5 and has allowed him to own a successful fishing bait and tackle store for over 23 years. As of 2018, AJ turned his love of being on the water fishing with his clients into a reality with his NH Guides License and a new boat named  "Great Spirit". 

AJ is featured as a Master Angler in the book by the late Harold C. Lyon, Jr. "Angling In The Smile of The Great Spirit". 

AJ and his wife Brandi want to make your family fishing experience one that you will talk about for years!  He works hard to put his clients onto fish and wants to share his knowledge to get you and your family or friends hooked on fishing!
