    Captain Chad and his First Mate

    5 Hour – Half day - 1:00 PM on August 7, 2025 • 3 adults

    We looked for a fishing experience for my 2 15 year old high school athletes. I had to mention that there are athletes because they are competitive in everything they do. The boat and fishing equipment provided by Captain Chad is first rate. The boat makes the lakes choppy waters tolerable; comfort and safety was my first criteria. Chad is a seasoned navigator on Lake Erie, my second criteria. His experience and commitment to take the boys to the fish provided great entertainment and lots of action. Finally, I could only hope that the first mate would be helpful, beyond simply going along. Captain Chads youthful first mate was the perfect match with my boys expectations of a great first time outing. We will return. If you are looking for a day of action, active to relax on a safe comfortable boat, call the Captain. It will be an experience beyond your expectation. The Captain and his first mate do everything possible to create great memories. His boat is over the top comfy, safe, and super clean. Tony Dury Monongahela, PA July 7, 2025

    Wonderful Trip

    8 Hour Full-day on June 26, 2025 • 4 adults • 2 children

    If you are thinking of taking a charter fishing trip Chad is the guy to take you. He was absolutely wonderful very nice, friendly and great hospitality. We took our kids on the trip and he was wonderful with them and made sure they was involved every step of the way. Tucker was the first mate on our trip and again was amazing with our kids and overall was just wonderful. We have been on multiple charter trips and this was the first time we have reached our limit on fish. Relentless Pursuit is the way to go!!!! 😃

    Great day on the lake!

    5 Hour – Half day - 1:00 PM on July 17, 2024 • 5 adults

    Had some family in town and scheduled Relentless Pursuit. Captan Chad and his right hand man Zach were great. They got us out on the water and got us set up, it took a minute due to some recent storms, but then we started hitting the walleye steady the rest of the afternoon. After we got back in they cleaned our catch and got us on our way. The boat was nice and clean with an on board restroom (major plus), great equipment and a shaded Bimini top to keep from getting too burnt. Overall a great trip, would definitely book again!

    Caught our limit!

    5 Hour – Half day on July 19, 2025 • 4 adults

    After some bad weather on the days leading up to our trip, Captain Chad wasn't overly confident we would catch fish, but our group ended up catching our limit of Walleye. He took us to a great spot only a couple of miles from shore at most. We appreciate it!

    Walleye galore

    5 Hour – Half day - 1:00 PM on June 12, 2025 • 2 adults

    Had a great trip with Captain Chad and his crew, Austin, and Tucker. We did catch your limit of walleye. It was a little bit different whereas, the fishing poles were set in their racks, and when a fish was on the line, it was hooked, and we were able to reel it in. Little bit different than what we were used to.

Great Walleye Trip!!!!
5 Hour – Half day on July 24, 2024 • 4 adults

We had a great morning walleye fishing trip with Relentless Pursuit. The large size of the 37 ft boat was nice and comfortable with 4 people fishing. Chad and Austin were very knowledgeable and helpful and we started catching walleyes soon after lines were out. Got nearly 4 limits (22 total) with largest a 27 inch 5 lb. Chad did an excellent job filleting. We were all very happy with the entire experience. Boat, crew, equipment, fishing, Highly recommended!!!!!!!

Half day trip on lake Erie
4 Hour Trip – Evening on July 28, 2023 • 2 adults • 2 children

Captain Chad went above and beyond to make our fishing trip enjoyable. Chad and First mate Jeff were both knowledgeable and eager to create a fishing trip both my wife and I and our two grandchildren could enjoy. The weather on the lake was being disagreeable as it often can be. Schedule's were shuffled and times got moved. Through it all Chad had great communication with us and put in extra effort to get my family out on the lake. The equipment was top notch and well maintained, and the knowledge shown by both gentlemen was well above my expectations. I would highly recommend you contact Chad for your next fishing trip on lake Erie.

Reported catch:
Walleye

Thank you for your review, Dave! The August weather sure has been less than desirable. Hope to see you again!
