Capt. Chris was awsome. He found fish right away, it just took a while for the fish to decide bite. five walleye over 22" was more than we could ask for. Thanks a ton Chris! P.S.-Sorry about the tangle! 🤣

Walleye Fishing - 5 PPL MAX on August 22, 20255 adults

The morning started slow. After 45 minutes, Captain Chris moved the boat to another location. Still quiet at new location. We moved to another spot and started catching. We caught 5 good sized walleye Captain Chris also cleaned our fish for us, thank you! All five of us enjoyed our morning out and would go again with Captain Chris.

Great Time
Walleye Fishing - 5 PPL MAX on September 27, 20252 adults

Well, we only caught two fish. Captain Chris was fantastic. He did the very best he could to try to find us the fish we were finding fish. However they just weren’t biting that day. I would highly recommend Captain Chris and will be going back to him next time we come up to Door County.
