    Absolute Best Walleye Charter Erie

    5 Hour Trip – Walleye (PM) on April 22, 2026 • 1 adult

    Yes we caught our limits of big walleye both days, which were only 5 hour charters. But the best part is that we just had a great time. Captain kelly has great communication, the nicest boat I’ve been on , top notch gear. I just couldn’t have asked for a better time.

Captain Kelly Schmidt has been fishing the Western Basin of Lake Erie for about two decades. He started his own company to introduce anglers from all over the country to the lake's great fishing opportunities. Captain Kelly and his first mate Stacie, who is also his wife, strive to make everyone involved into the action – they always work hard for everyone to achieve the maximum. Capt. Kelly is also a great teacher!
