Captain Jim Chamberlin specializes in action-packed fishing experiences for anglers of all skill levels. Whether you're chasing trophy fish or planning a family day on the water, Fish With Jim Outfitters delivers a laid-back, educational, and productive trip designed to create lasting memories. Trips are ideal for beginners, experienced anglers, families, and groups wanting to experience Northern Michigan from the water.

One of the biggest advantages of Fish With Jim Outfitters is our mobile operation. Unlike many charter services limited to one port, we can move throughout the Traverse City area to target fishing opportunities and favorable weather conditions. Depending on seasonal patterns and fishing activity, trips may take place on Torch Lake, Elk Lake, Grand Traverse Bay, or nearby fisheries.

Fish With Jim Outfitters specializes in Atlantic Salmon fishing on Torch Lake and Elk Lake, offering one of Northern Michigan's most unique inland fisheries. These crystal-clear lakes provide calmer waters than Lake Michigan and excellent opportunities to catch hard-fighting salmon and trout throughout the season.

Trips are fully equipped with rods, reels, electronics, tackle, and proven custom-painted lures from 131 Custom Lures. Captain Jim uses years of local experience and advanced trolling techniques to consistently put clients on fish while creating a fun and educational atmosphere on the water.
