Irish Eyes Sportfishing strives to give every guest the best learning and engaging fishing experience possible. Your guide, Captain Mike, runs a family-friendly charter, which means he welcomes all ages to enjoy the hobby of fishing. He wants everybody on board to be part of the action.

A group of up to 6 guests can join on the captain’s 29’ Baha boat. This cruiser boat is equipped with the latest navigational and safety equipment and is powered by twin 325 HP Chevy engines. She also has an enclosed cabin, a private toilet, and lots of seating space. Even if it starts raining, you’ll enjoy a safe, dry, and comfortable ride.

You’ll mainly target Walleye, either by trolling or drift fishing. You get to keep the catch, so feel free to bring a cooler for it.

Capt. Mike will provide you with rods, reels, lures, and bait. You’ll need to bring along snacks and drinks, a cooler to store your catch in, and a valid fishing license. Then you just need to get ready to cast off on an excellent adventure making memories that will last a lifetime.

All trips are time or until the legal limit is caught. Start times can be adjusted to fit your scheduling please contact us with any questions you might have.
