About Us
Tom Dietz can boast of more than 38 years of fishing experience,
and all this time on the water over the years leads to
consistent success today. Favorite targets include walleyes/saugeyes,
bass, and trout, but Tom's prize of prizes is the mighty
muskellunge.
Originally hailing from Wisconsin, Tom has plenty of experience
tangling with these toothy critters. He lived in Eagle River,
WI for ten years and was a regional sales manager for Mepps
and Mr. Twister until Gander Mountain attracted him to Ohio.
Now, when Dietz isn't managing the new Dayton Gander Mountain
(Huber Heights), writing articles for Musky Hunter Magazine or Ohio
Outdoor News, he lives to guide musky trips. Tom primarily
guides on Caesar's Creek, Clear Fork, Alum Creek, and Leesville
Lakes. His season typically starts in early March and extends
through December.
What makes Tom Dietz different as a musky
guide?
(1) Tom NEVER fishes when he's guiding. These
trips are about YOU & helping you catch
more fish!
(2) Tom can offer a variety of strategies.
His preference is casting for muskies, but
he's fully rigged and ready to troll. He also
offers night fishing packages & will even
take groups on the ice.
(3) All of Dietz's musky trips are catch-and-release
(though he can recommend a quality taxidermist
for quality replica mounts by Lax).
