Rod Squad Fishing Charters

Rod Squad Fishing Charters welcomes you to Erie, Pennsylvania for a memorable day of fishing. This family-friendly fishing charter operation takes great pride in its success and will provide you with a fun fishing trip on Lake Erie. You’ll be in the safe hands of Captain Robert and his crew. These experienced anglers will know how to make your stay on the water enjoyable, safe, and productive. Join them aboard and see why Lake Erie is the greatest freshwater fishery in the USA.

Being world-renowned for its healthy Walleye population, the lake allows you to fill the freeze with generous white fillets that are a great source for a family and friends gathering. The species is a native, naturally reproducing resident of the lake and can be best targeted in Pennsylvania waters from May to September. Captain Bob is well-versed in his abilities to locate and catch these toothy critters and recommends Walleye trips to all ages and skill levels. Along with this tasty species, you can also chase Rainbow and Lake Trout.

The boat you’ll fish from is a 24’ Bayliner performance fishing boat that can take up to 4 guests. It runs on a 225 HP Honda engine and comes with a portable toilet and downriggers.

Captain Robert provides rods, reels, tackle, lures, as well as catch cleaning and filleting. Yours is just to bring fishing licenses and the food and drinks of your choice.

Bring the family out for a day on Lake Erie they will not forget.
