Offshore A-count Sportfishing LLC is located in Midland and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters. It runs Great Lakes fishing charters on Lake Erie, Lake Michigan,  Saginaw Bay, and the connecting waters.

Capt. Michael will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 6-hour trips, mainly fishing for Salmon, Perch, Rainbow Trout, Lake Trout, and Walleye, depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, heavy tackle, trolling, drift fishing, ice fishing, and jigging. Trolling and jigging trips are available on open water. Ice fishing charters are also available on Saginaw Bay when the weather conditions permit.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 23’ Warrior V238 that can safely take up to 4 anglers. This boat comes with a wireless trolling motor.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Please make sure to buy a valid fishing license ahead of time. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip.
