Three boats now. Book an exciting adventure with Milwaukee Offshore Fishing Charters! Captain Mark and Nick Scaffidi are a dynamic father-son duo and they’ve been fishing on Lake Michigan their whole lives. They know everything that there is to know about Salmon and Trout fishing. When booking one of their trips, they guarantee "your arms will be tired and poles bent in just under a quarter of an hour!"
Your voyage begins on board a spacious 29’ Tiara, 31’ Tiara, or the custom 23’ Dorado. All are outfitted with the latest navigational equipment, including a Garmin GPS and radar, and a side-scanning fishfinder to put you on top of your target in no time. You’ll also have downriggers for trolling and top-quality rods, reels, bait, and lures.
You can take a break from fishing and sit back and relax in the air-conditioned cabin. Inside, you’ll find a private head and ample space for the whole family to enjoy. Each trip accommodates up to 6 guests and kids are more than welcome aboard as long as they’re accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Please note that some trips, including the 7 and 6-hour trips, have flexible departure times based on afternoon availability. Just contact the captain before your trip to discuss what your options are.
You’ll be targeting Chinook and Coho Salmon, as well as various Trout species including Brown, Lake, and Rainbow Trout. Another frequent visitor is Yellow Perch. Each of these species is fun to target and they make a delicious meal as well. After your trip, the captain will offer to clean and fillet your catch for you so it’s ready for the frying pan once you get home!
Just be sure to purchase a fishing license before your trip and the rest will be taken care of. Also, feel free to bring your own food and drinks (no hard liquor) and store them in the captain’s cooler. Last but not least, make sure to bring comfortable clothing and a camera to make each moment last and book your next adventure with Milwaukee Offshore Fishing Charter.

We had a day in MKE to take our son on his first fishing trip. The crew gave him a good introduction to everything he needed to know and made sure we had a successful trip. Highly recommend.
