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!

7 Hour Trip – Walleye

Couldn't have planned a better day!

VERIFIED

What a trip! Captain Paul was the master of a well-appointed boat, and put us on fish from the word go. We caught our limit of walleye, and some big hogs throughout the day...all three of us were able to land a fish at least 27", with the largest being 29 1/2"! Paul let us get involved, working the rods, boards and even the nets in the end. Great teacher with great equipment and a deep understanding of the bay we fished. Most importantly to us, Captain Paul's energy was infectious, and he was as excited as we were pulling in the fish...lots of fist bumps, high fives and bro hugs on a trip we'll remember forever... save a spot for us next year!

7 Hour Trip – Walleye

Fantastic Outing!

VERIFIED

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!

5 Hour Trip – Walleye

Great day on the water!

VERIFIED

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.

7 Hour Trip – Walleye

Great Day in the Bay!

VERIFIED

My Dad, Cousin, and I are relatively experienced fisherman and we had a great day with Captain Paul! None of us had really trolled before, and he did a great job of teaching us and putting us on some good walleye! We also got to fish for channel catfish and caught several trophy sized fish and enough keepers for several meals! Overall, it was a great day and we would definitely come back and fish with Captain Paul again!
