    A great day fishing in the UP!

    Walleye and Pike Charter on October 17, 2026 • 2 adults

    We spent a morning fishing for walleye and pike with MQT Adventures, and it was a blast. The bite was slow at first, but our guide Mike quickly changed our approach and found the fish. From there we caught fish the rest of the morning. I lost count of the walleye, and we landed some nice pike too, including a 33-incher. Mike was knowledgeable, adaptable, and easy to fish with. I can't recommend MQT Adventures enough, and I'll definitely be back

    Honeymoon fishing!

    Lake Trout and Salmon Charter on August 19, 2026 • 2 adults

    Had an awesome time fishing Lake Superior with MQT Adventures! The captain was great from start to finish and had us on fish quickly. We caught several fish throughout the trip and had a blast doing it. You can tell the captain knows Lake Superior and knows exactly what he’s doing. To top it all off, he even filleted our catch for us afterward, which made the whole experience even better. If you're looking for a fishing charter in the Marquette area, I’d absolutely recommend MQT Adventures. Great captain, great fishing, and an all-around awesome experience. We’ll definitely be back! 🎣🔥

    a great time!

    Walleye and Pike Charter - 4:00 PM on June 12, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had a lot of fun fishing with Mike. He made sure to walk us through the proper techniques to have the best chance at catching fish, which was really appreciated! If the fish weren’t biting in the spot we were at, he moved us to a new one so we had the best chance at success. We were the only ones out on the lake, which made it even more fun. My husband reeled in a 30” pike on the first cast! We had a great time and would definitley recomend Mike to others.

    Greatest Trip Ever

    Lake Trout and Salmon Charter - 3:30 PM on August 8, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

    We took our 12 year old grandson out on his first charter fishing trip ams Captain Mike was great teaching our grandson what to do and not to do to be able to land the fish he put us on. Our grandson caught 4 nice size trout, 1 coho. We would recommend Captain Mike for your next fishing trip in the UP.

    I received the meet location in the app and met up with Mike to start the adventure. He was very friendly, pulling out all the stops for my son to catch extra fish and let him reel in the ones he caught. If we come out this way again ill look at booking another trip.
