Impulse Sport Fishing LLC invites you to spend an unforgettable day fishing the Western Basin of Lake Erie, launching out of Wild Wings Marina, Oak Harbor. Captain John Seiler grew up on the lake and is a true Walleye and Perch specialist who can’t wait to teach you all the secret tricks for landing the catch of a lifetime.

He invites you to join him aboard his 27’ Sportcraft cuddy cabin boat, specially designed for fishing the Great Lakes. The “Impulse” comes with a 375HP 8.1L 496 Mercruiser engine, full-head restroom, ice-box, and a livewell. This fishing machine is very well-maintained and equipped with a top-notch Raymarine autopilot and Garmin electronics. It’s spacious enough to accommodate up to six anglers fishing comfortably.

Captain John loves teaching anglers of all experience levels everything he knows about this magnificent lake and the species residing there. He’ll show you his tried and true techniques for landing the biggest Walleye and Perch, including spinning, jigging, trolling, drifting, and bottom fishing.

He’ll be mostly jigging for big Walleye males at the beginning of the season, and then, later on, trolling for females near the reefs. All the necessary gear will be available for use free of charge, including top professional tackle, lures, and live bait.

All ages and skill levels are welcome – the main goal of Impulse Sport Fishing LLC is for all of their customers to have a fun and relaxing day in a comfortable atmosphere. All aboard!

I grew up on Lake Erie fishing with my grandparents as a kid. We used to fish from a 25' Sportcraft built in 1988. Throughout the years, my passion for hunting started to diminish and now I eat, sleep and breath fishing. I have over 10 years of experience fishing the Lake Erie and have been guiding fishing trips for five years professionally. I am very patient and love teaching my customers. Ensuring a fun and a productive day on the water is my main goal as a captain.
