Book your next trip with Eliminator Sportfishing and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Bayfield for more.

Lake Trout, Brown Trout, Coho Salmon, Chinook Salmon, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), and more inhabit these waters if you come at the right time of year. For these species, you’re likely to troll.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

You’ll find yourself aboard a 33’ Tiara offshore sport fishing vessel that holds up to 6 passengers. It has downriggers and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Zander will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates often work for tips and offering them a 10–20% tip is customary.

Before coming aboard, you may need 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.

You can’t go wrong when you bring bottled water, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask.

Eliminator Sportfishing will make it easy for you to go fishing in Bayfield. So, how about booking that trip?

Meet Captain Zander Ziemski: I have been fishing on Lake Superior since I was 6 years old. I fell in love with it and have been working as a first mate for the last 8 years, which prompted me to start my own business. Join me for a great adventure on this amazing lake.
