A significant highlight of fishing on Lake Erie is fishing for Smallmouth Bass during the spring and early summer. You can sight cast for huge Smallmouth Bass with artificial lures, all of which the captain will provide.

All Captains will let you know about changing regulations for keeping Bass. Outside of this season, these fish are strictly caught and released.

Great Late July Bass Bite
Half Day Trip - 4hrs (AM) on July 25, 2025 • 3 adults
Captain Mark and his first mate Aiden were great! They put my sons and I on the largemouth early and often. I think we boated 25 in the first 3 hours. Mark was knowledgeable, patient and easy to work with and his boat was a dream. Everybody was in on the action and had a wonderful time! Mark’s appreciation for wildlife and the fish we caught was truly remarkable. Will definitely look at returning to experience Lake Erie smallmouth in the fall/summer months. I would definitely recommend Mark to anyone that wants to tap into Lake Erie bass fishing!

Absolutely amazing first-time fishing experience!
Quick Flex Trip - 2hrs - 7PM on August 2, 2025 • 4 adults
Captain Mark and Aiden were incredibly knowledgeable and made us feel welcome right from the start. As first-time anglers, we had a lot to learn, but they were patient, informative, and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. Thanks to them, we learned so much and had an unforgettable day on the water. This was a fantastic experience for my whole family, and we’re already looking forward to booking another charter with them the next time we’re in Lake Erie. Highly recommend!
