Sea Flea Charters isn't your typical fishing charter. They started out as a professional tournament team that traveled the great lakes. The team was made up of Capt. Brian Butts' sister and father, who had been fishing Salmon since 1967. The Sea Flea instantly became a top boat on the tournament trail with several wins and finishing at the top in most of the tournaments.
You'll be fishing aboard a 39' Tiara boat. This spacious offshore boat accommodates up to six anglers and there's enough room for everybody to fish at the same time. The boat has been restored in 2017 and has 2 350 HP Crusader engines. She features an enclosed cabin with AC, a private bathroom, a kitchen, and she's wheelchair accessible.
Depending on the season, you'll target Coho and Chinook Salmon, Walleye, Yellow Perch, Brown Trout, and Steelhead. You get to keep the catch and the crew will clean it for you free of charge.
The sponsors keep the Sea Flea stocked with the best possible fishing gear, which is included in the price. You only need to bring your snacks and drinks. You can purchase your fishing license from the captain for $10 per person.
This talented crew is not just about great fishermen but just down to earth great people that enjoy entertaining people. The Sea Flea Charters team always strives to be the best and has taken the same approach to their charter service. Join them on your next fishing trip.

Captain Matt and John were great! Hauled in 7 fish, mostly King Salmon. Took our filets compliments of Captain Matt straight to Kirbys for an awesome lunch. Thank you Brian for a spectacular day!
Captain Matt and Mate Chelsea helped us have a memorable family trip! Super knowledgeable and worked hard to put a group of inexperienced fishermen/women in a position to catch a variety of fish. Highly recommend!
Brian and Jimmy took us out and they ran that boat and those rods like a well-oiled machine. It blew my mind how they knew what, where, and when to get us hooked into the biggest fish I’ve ever caught (and I’m an avid fly fisherman). I couldn’t recommend them more highly. I want to take my Pa back for the experience and will certainly be booking with them!!!
Kings, cohos, steelies...Captain Brian had on on fish all morning long. His boat is clean, beautiful, well equipped and 1st Mate Brendan is second to none. These guys are top notch!
Rough choppy water did not stop us from catching salmon, steelhead and trout. Captain Matt and first mate John were continually looking for our next catch. We will do this again.
Thanks Sarah...you were fun and positive the whole time! Thanks for using Sea Flea Charters!

I was a very successful tournament fisherman and wanted to share my love of this lake and its resources with others in a high-class professional manner. Having a network of the best fishermen on Lake Michigan also comes with being successful in tournaments which is priceless when trying to find fish in this lake the size of a small ocean.
