I can't speak for the other guides mentioned here but I have fished 4 times with John K. from Lake X lures and he is an outstanding Musky guide. I have a hard time seeing someone working harder to put you on fish and he is an outstanding outdoorsman and conservationist. I did not fish on the Turtle with him but we did fish Trude. (dont miss this lake if you are up there)
Not sure of your master plan but commiting yourself to one lake is typically not the best idea. The fish may not be moving there and it may be a hot bite somewhere else.
I have found the single best move in fishing an unknown area with a guide is keeping your options open until game time.
If you are commited to the Turtle I will throw one other name in the hat, Jeff Robl from Bobber down guide service. He doesn't specialize in Muskie fishing, but he knows the Turtle like the back of his hand.
