Fishin Mission Charters

Fishin Mission Charters is ready to take you and your crew out on a fishing adventure on beautiful Lake Erie! The Walleye Capital of the World provides outstanding fishing opportunities. On top of that, you’ll have Captain Paul Schill by your side, which is more than enough to have a successful day on the water.

Capt. Paul’s 25’ Sportcraft is always ready for a day of trolling or casting. This vessel accommodates up to 4 guests and there’s enough room for everybody to fish at the same time. She’s equipped with live wells, plenty of storage space, a fresh water sink, and a marine toilet.

You’ll fish near the world famous Cedar Point Amusement Park and the Lake Erie Islands. The beginning of the fishing season is usually reserved for trolling, jigging at the reefs, or drift fishing for Walleye. From July onwards, Perch is also in the cards. Capt. Paul coaches every guest for trolling and he prides himself that every guest can consider himself a fully capable Walleye fisherman after the trip.

The captain will provide you with the top-notch fishing equipment – he uses Daiwa and Cabela’s for trolling, and Fenwick and St Croix for casting. You can keep the catch and the captain can clean it for a small fee. You should purchase your fishing license before the trip and bring your snacks and drinks.

Fishin Mission Charters always customize their trips depending on the guest’s experience and needs. Capt. Paul wants everybody to leave his boat with the skill to catch the fish on their own. If learning something new and a box full of tasty fish sound interesting, you know who you should call!

Whether you're trolling or casting, you will have all need to be successful. May June and July provide nearshore action and as the season goes deep into summer so do the Walleye. Sometimes they will go to deep offshore waters which makes this trip unavailable. For more fishing time, the captain recommends the 7 hour trip.

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Iโ€™ve been on a boat for more than 30 years. It is an honor and a privilege to be a Charter Captain. Self-employed at Aflac for 25 years. Also, I am a professional ring announcer for MMA Pro Boxing. I like all the methods used to hunt the Walleyes. Trolling is more productive but casting is an absolute blast. Just catch fish!
