Whitecap Charters – Charlevoix
You can't go wrong with Whitecap Charters. The captain will not only guide you through the basics before you make your first cast – he will make sure your rods are busy throughout the adventure.
The captain opens the season in May and takes his clients out until late October. The spring and summer months are all about light tackle fishing, while heavy tackle is the main technique for September and October.
You will be equipped with top-notch gear by Shimano, Okuma, and Ugly Stik to catch anything from Chinook and Coho Salmon to Lake Trout, Brown Trout, Perch, and Steelhead.
The 'Trouble Maker' will be your boat for the day. It is a 29' A
Trophy Pro cuddy cabin that comes powered by twin 225 HP engines. Trouble Maker has enough space for up to 6 anglers to fish in comfort and style. She is a trailerable boat, which allows the captain to fish from several ports, such as Manistee, Traverse City, Bay Harbor, Charlevoix, Torch Lake and Frankfort.
The New TROUBLE MAKER Boat has everything you need to make a great catch possible. All gear and tackle will be provided for the trip, along with bait and a complimentary fish-cleaning service at the end of the trip.
Whitecap Charters also offers catering service – if you are too busy, the captain will gladly pick up lunch and drinks for you for an *Extra Fee*

Adam was on time at the launch and ready to go. We started out fishing for salmon but they are late cming in got the season. So, we headed out to deeper water for lake trout. We each caught our limit! Adam is very experienced and each fish was netted successfully. Thank you again for a wonderful morning!
Thanks for choosing Whitecap Charters for your up north fishing experience. Glad to see the fish cooperated for you.Which doesn't always happen specially over the last few weeks. Yes , adam is a great stuart of the sea.. lol Hope to see you in the future. Thanks Capt. Kent and Crew
I would not hesitate to go out with this charter again. The ONLY reason I did not go a full 5 stars is because the winds came up and the Captain decided to pull up the lines early and head in. While this was a safe decision and I was fine with it, it did cut our trip from 4 hours to 2-1/2. It would have been nice to offer a rebate on the trip (we paid in full).
Captain Adam definitely falls on the safer side for Peaples wellbeing. If we bring you out , we definitely want to bring you back alive.. Sorry that mother nature , showed ugly teeth , but that is how SHE works Sometimes. As far as a rebate We have the Cheapest 2 Person rates in the Area so there is Not much profit room as is. Sorry Hope we can get you out in the future and make up the time. Thanks Capt.Kent and Crew
Absolute wonderful experience. Captain Adam is great and knows his stuff. Definitely want to go again!

Thanks for choosing Whitecap Charters for your up north fishing experience.Hope to see you in the future. "FISH ON" Capt. Kent and Crew
