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!

Paul is the best!!
Yellow Perch—1 to 4 fishermen on July 7, 20262 adults1 child

My two boys and I booked with Paul for a morning trip on Lake Erie. My sons have never fished in a body of water this large. Paul took the time to teach safety, the equipment and how to use properly and my sons took to his instruction immediately. In no time we were fishing and reeling them in. Paul is the best and we will certainly do this again soon.

Fantastic Outing!
7 Hour Trip – Walleye on August 9, 20254 adults

Overall a fabulous experience! Booking website/app was easy to use. Captain Paul called us several times ahead of the trip to make sure we knew where to park and answer our questions. This was our first time fishing on Lake Erie and he spent alot of time giving us tips and instructions on how to catch the fish. We caught a lot of fish and afterwards, he cleaned them, told us how to freeze them, and gave us a recipe to use when frying them up. We look forward to booking a trip with Captain Paul next year!

Great day on the water!
5 Hour Trip – Walleye on July 23, 20251 adult2 children

While the conditions were less than ideal for walleye fishing, captain Paul put us on the fish right away. It was a bright day with a decent chop and warm water, but we still caught fish the entire time out. Captain Paul was helpful in showing some fairly experienced anglers some new tactics and had all the equipment needed for a great day out. He was encouraging to my teenage kids and myself and I wouldn't hesitate to use Fishin Mission Charters again in the future.

Response from Captain

it was a hot July day
7 Hour Trip – Walleye on July 12, 20261 adult1 child

we caught 2 drum/sheephead and 5 catfish. wewent for walleye. captain Paul was AWESOME I just wish we could've caught more fish. my daughter got a fish of a lifetime though with a 33 inch 20 lb channel catfish on a ultralight rod. all in all it was a fun day on the lake but 7 fish in 7 hours for $500 is kinda disappointing.

Response from Captain

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

I'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!
