Salmon Chaser Charters
Salmon Chaser Charters
Salmon Chaser Charters does exactly what it says in the name. Based out of Kenosha, WI, you'll access Lake Michigan's rich waters in search of prized Coho and Chinook Salmon, along with plenty of Trout, too. These delicious creatures will make for excellent table fare at the end of your trip, so bring an appetite with you and you'll have the edge over the fish, no problem.
There's no one better to show you these waters than Captain Shane Lemke. A local to the area, he's been fishing Lake Michigan for over 25 years, running trips since 2012. He knows these waters like the back of his hand and just loves to share his passion with others. Beginners are welcome aboard to learn from the maestro, as he hopes to get you hooked.
The 33' Tiara offshore sportfishing boat is something to behold. Built in 1984, she's a classic vessel, still providing comfort and fun for groups of up to 6. Fitted with a multimedia system, kitchen, and full head toilet, you're in for a smooth ride offshore. Bring your own drinks and snacks aboard, and enjoy the journey. But please, make sure not to bring any glasses.
Head up to 20 miles into the deep waters of Lake Michigan and go after the prized fish. Your captain will set up the trolling lines to give you maximum chance of landing plenty of Salmon and Trout. As well as Coho and Chinook Salmon, you'll target Lake and Brown Trout, along with Steelheads, giving you the chance to catch some of the most sought-after freshwater game fish in the country.
At the end of your trip, Capt. Shane will clean and fillet your fish at no extra cost, so you'll be good to head home and cook your delicious catch right away. All you need to do is grab a fishing license and bring a cooler to take your catch away in. Everything else is taken care of with Salmon Chaser Charters. Come aboard and see why Lake Michigan is considered so 'great!'

Captain Shane definetly knows his stuff. He got us on the Coho and got them in the boat. I would book another trip with him in a heartbeat!
Thank you Jon, it was a great time fishing with you and your group. I look forward to fishing with you again in the future.
Found Capt Shane bc of his name, and he lives up to the billing. Great day on the water and plenty of big kings, even when we couldn’t keep them all hooked. Highly recommend will be back!
Glad we were able to get you guys some salmon. Hope to have you out again in the future. Captain Shane
Captain Shane was amazing,! Had a great trip 5 man limit in a few hours. Would highly recommend. Great job captain!!
Thank you Patrick. Let Chris know he can come reel in the long lines any day. Captain Shane
I can't say enough about the excellent experience we (4) had with Shane and "Salmon Chaser." The boat, and Captain Shane was a fantastic experience. We caught a ton of fish from Lake Trout to Salmon (Coho & King). I can't say enough about Captain Shane's professionalism and how well he found fish, manned the rods with skill and organization. Captain Shane was a master of his vessel and employed great skill when there was "...a fish on..." and how well everything flowed when we were in full catch mode. There were several times when we had two fish on the lines and he was masterful with his instructions and quick reaction time. Definitely will be calling Captain Shane again this year.
Thank you Curt. Glad your group had a good time catching fish on the Salmon Chaser. Captain Shane
