Algonac has a fish with your name on it, so let Rockets Fishing Adventures help you catch it! Your guide for the day is Captain Rick, bringing aboard years of angling experience.

Sturgeon, Musky, Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, Yellow Perch, and more are in the cards if you cast your line at the right time of year. Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself light tackle fishing, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.  Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Now that’s dinner!

You’ll be dropping lines from a 21’ Sea Ray with space for 3 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

Before coming aboard, you may be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. Fishing in Lake Sturgeon is strictly catch-and-release.

Families who love fishing together will be glad that kids are welcome aboard! Child-sized life vests are available. It’s never a bad idea to bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that daydream into a reality with Rockets Fishing Adventures.

6 Hour Trip – PM Sturgeon on September 7, 2024

Truly an unbelievable experience! Captain Rick went above and beyond to make sure we had a great trip! He even scouted for 3 hours before we arrived to make sure we were getting on the prime spot for that night! We got set up and were having a blast before the fish even showed up! Captain Rick made all the right adjustments and the fish didn’t disappoint! We caught an 80 pounder then a 90 pounder with multiple other species in between! All in all I will say that Captain Ricks hospitality and willingness to share his knowledge was enough to make it a great trip! The fish were just an excellent bonus! Thank you captain!

6 Hour Trip – PM Sturgeon on September 30, 2024

I could not recommend a Lake Sturgeon fishing charter with Rocket’s Fishing Adventures more! First, Captain Rick worked hard to get us on fish. He arrived early and scanned the river for fish so that our charter time was spent fishing and not looking for fish. He was constantly changing baits and making sure they were fresh. Second, he is passionate about sturgeon and makes the trip fun! He was as excited as we were when we caught fish! The boat was comfortable and all of the fishing gear was top notch.

5 Hour Trip - AM Sturgeon on August 25, 2024

Richard is an experienced and knowledgeable professional captain. During our trip we discussed various topics, from sturgeon habits to various sturgeon species, and he was knowledgeable about them all. Captain Richard tailor-made this trip for me, allowing me to enjoy an exciting experience of fighting sturgeons and truly feel the process of fighting with fish. I highly recommend the sturgeon fishing trip organized by Captain Richard. His professionalism and attentiveness made the experience particularly memorable.

5 Hour Trip - AM Sturgeon on September 27, 2024

I was impressed with the how hard Rich worked and how he went the extra mile to make sure we caught some fish. Even fishing a little longer than we had booked. We ended up catching three large sturgeon during the last 2 hrs. Of the trip.

As an avid fisherman all of my life, I realized in 2013 that this was my calling. I got to work logging official sea time to become eligible for an MMC. In 2017 I began working with other charters professionally, and in 2019 finally obtained my credentials. I have been specifically targeting Sturgeon for over a decade and have had great success!
