Great Day On The Water
6 Hour Trip on June 11, 20263 adults

Can highly recommend this trip. My two teenage sons took this trip as a day away from CP crowds. Caught 67 fish and this was a charter where we actually got to fish (bait, cast, reel them in). Taken several Erie area chapters and by far the best. Captain was First Class all the way!

Response from Captain

Thank you Nolan.

Fantastic Fishing with Awesome Guide
4 Hour Trip on August 13, 20255 adults

Jeff had us hauling in channel catfish within the first few minutes and we continued to catch them throughout the day. When the bites slowed, he moved us to another location and we got several 9 pounders right away. We filled our cooler With 50 pounds of fish and had to release the rest. Jeff gave us an excellent recommendation for getting our fish cleaned nearby and a local restaurant that was great. He was also a fun and good guy to hang out with and busted his butt to keep things moving all day.
