Are you looking for A fun and action-packed Walleye fishing trip on the Detroit River? What about chasing Michigan's very own river monster the Lake Sturgeon? Or maybe you'd rather have a fun day catching multiple species trolling on Lake St. Clair. Whatever it is, Dream Catchers Charters are here to help!

Your guide Connor Barr will take you out on his 2023 caymas dv22.

Jigging, trolling, casting, whipping, and still fishing are the methods that are used and Connor is happy to show you the ropes if you're not proficient in any of them. The conditions and effective practice for the time of year will dictate how you fish to provide the best results. Smallmouth Bass, Musky, Sturgeon, and Walleye are all waiting for you to reel in!

All fishing trips are fully guided and equipped the only thing anglers are responsible for is the license, weather-appropriate clothing, and snacks/ drinks (no alcohol please). The license should be purchased before the trip ($26 for inner state and $30 for outer state 72h license) 28 for Canadian license where required

Captain Connor takes great pride in his company, his boat, and his ability to put you on the fish. If you're a beginner, don't worry, Connor enjoys teaching people and introducing new anglers young and old to the sport. When you book with Connor, you're booking with someone who cares and is dedicated to providing a top of the line experience for a good price.

Lake Sturgeon on September 26, 20232 adults

Unless you personally get Bear Grilles to take you out fishing, im not sure you can get a more authentic experience. Captain is a true outdoors man and has extensive knowledge and experience which not only makes for great fishing but also great conversation.

5 Hour Trip–Detroit Walleye Jigging on May 2, 20222 adults

Our experience could not have been any better. Captain Connor was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable of required methods and location of fish which allowed us to catch our limited. If you want to have high chance of success with a well prepared and pleasant Captain. We recommend Captain Connor. Jerry and Jeff

1/2 day Walleye trip
Trolling (multiple bodies) on March 21, 2020

Had an excellent experience fishing with Connor on Dream Catcher Charters. From top notch equipment, boat, and overall multiple species knowledge. Went trolling for walleye, caught a 3 man limit (18)of dandy size walleye in a short period of time, along with small mouth bass and a bonus 20lb Muskie. Super nice helpful guy glad to help any beginner. Definitely has a passion for what he does and it shows.

I started fishing at 3 years old with my dad and my love for the outdoors took off from there. Even during my time in the service, I would find a way to fish and hunt wherever I could. To say I live and breathe the outdoors is an understatement. Finally, after years of hesitation, I started Dream Catchers Charters in the spring of 2019 and it's been an amazing journey since then. On every trip, I see it as an opportunity to earn someone's business and make them feel like they got an experience they won't soon forget.
