Fantastic fishing charter experience on Lake Michigan
5 Hour Trip (AM) on July 20, 20263 adults1 child

Our experience with In The Box fishing charter was fantastic. Captain Jarrod was very communicative and very knowledgeable. The experience was very user friendly. We caught a sufficient number of fish on Lake Michigan to make the charter very much worthwhile. The fishing equipment and boat were excellent. We couldn’t have asked for a better fishing experience in SW Michigan. Highly recommend ‘In The Box’ fishing charter!

Captain Jarrod has been a captain for 8 years now, and truly loves the freedom it offers him. He loves seeing the smiles on kids faces when they reel in their first catch ever – to him, that's the best reward when it comes to fishing. That's not to say he isn't a fan of placing first in fishing tournaments and cashing in the reward money! You are in great hands with Captain Jarrod, who has many tournament wins under his belt.
