Northern Lights Adventures welcomes you aboard! Sail out of Port Superior Marina into the Apostle Islands with Captain Sean and Savanna. They have been fishing at Lake Superior for many years and have lots of knowledge to share. Join, whether you’re just looking for a relaxing day on the water or a new fishing trophy.

Get comfortable aboard a spacious 30’ Tiara. This boat accommodates up to 6 guests and offers enough space for all anglers to fish in comfort. She’s powered by twin 350 HP Crusader engines and reaches the speed of 30 knots. The boat features a private bathroom, a fully functional kitchen, and a lounge you can rest in.

Embark on one of specially curated Salmon and Trout fishing charters and boat tour adventures. Choose between a half day and a full day trip and how far offshore you want to go. The captain will do his best to maximize your chances for a great catch.

All fishing equipment is included in the price. The crew provides comfortable Onyx brand water-activated life vests (much more comfortable than typical bulky PFDs) and they’re additionally equipped with Type I PFDs as required by the USCG. Tiara yachts are made in Holland, MI and their quality and safety are top of their class.

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take - the same goes for fishing! Get out on the water with Northern Lights Adventures and see what makes Lake Superior the greatest of the Great Lakes, and the Apostle Islands the jewels of Lake Superior.

Captain Sean and Al were very friendly and helpful. Made a great lunch and had plenty of snacks and beverages. Fishing was the best we've ever had on a charter trip. 6 of us caught over 20 Lake Trout. 2 were over 32 inches. Kept our 12 and threw the rest back. The boat was very nice. We would definitely recommend, and we'll be back. Thank you!!!!

We werent able to catch any fish. They did however put us on them we had several get hooked but wouldnt stay on. They did everything they could to make it right with us. They gave me a discount and even tried to set up another trip with a discount but the weather and our time on vacation didnt work out. They were great people who take a lot of pride in their work and i will definitely give them another shot if we make it back up their.
