Meet your Captain Michael Spradlin
Ohio
  • Mike Spradlin is the captain behind River Jet Outfitters in Dayton, Ohio, and has been guiding since 2010. Trips run from the Miami River and the lakes of southern Ohio, from short evening outings to full days on the water. Guests who have fished with Mike describe a reliably good time whether the trip is on the river or a lake.

Expertise

Here are your areas of expertise.

Musky and bass trips

  • Full-day and evening musky trips use both live bait and artificial lures from a jet boat, with groups kept to three anglers or fewer.
  • A July 2026 trip report on the Miami River covers a combined musky and bass outing with River Jet Outfitters.

Night catfishing

  • Evening and overnight trips target channel catfish and flatheads on the river using live bait.
  • Trophy flathead trips run after dark, when the largest fish feed.

Multi-species river fishing

  • Full-day Miami River trips cover smallmouth bass, saugeye, carp and catfish as the day changes.
  • Trips move between techniques including trolling, drift fishing, jigging and heavy tackle.
