Grand Haven, MI, United States

Come out and enjoy a fishing trip on beautiful Lake Michigan! Fish N Fowl Guide Service is based out of Chinook Pier in downtown Grand Haven.

Capt. Sam will use his knowledge and equipment to make sure you have a fun-filled and, hopefully, fish-filled adventure! The trips are 5 or 7 hours and are offered in the morning and in the afternoon, depending on when you want to go. The main targets while trolling on Lake Michigan are Salmon, Lake Trout, and Steelhead. Upon returning to port, all fish are cleaned, bagged, and iced down to travel home.

Your journey starts aboard a 30’ Tiara Yacht that can fit 6 guests. On board, there are plenty of accommodations to keep you comfortable, including a private bathroom. The vessel is loaded with top-notch fishing equipment to help you land your catch. All fishing gear is included in the cost. All you need to bring is whatever snacks and drinks you would like for your trip.

A fishing license is required and can be purchased online. Children are welcome aboard. The crew is well-experienced and knowledgeable to help you enjoy your adventure on the lake.

Join Fish N Fowl Guide Service for your next fishing adventure!

Captain Sam was awesome
5 Hour Trip (AM) on September 7, 20252 adults3 children
I have 3 very eager young boys ages 8, 8 and 10 that have been begging me to take them on a charter fishing trip this year. With it being late in the season (I had to cancel an early season fishing trip due to a family health event) I was hoping to not disappoint my boys. Captain Sam was great right from the start. He is great with kids and my boys all caught big Kings out on Lake Michigan. My boys are still talking about how much fun they had and are already talking about fishing with Captain Sam the owner of Fish and Fowl next summer! We’ll definitely be chattering a trip with him next year! What a great experience!

Perfect fishing day experience!
4 Hour Trip (PM) on August 30, 20252 adults
The crew Captain, Sam, and crew member, Mike, were both great guides and helped me learn how to catch Salmon. I cought my limit and lost a few in my learning experience, but will say I had the best Salmon fishing experience ever! And by the way, Captain Sam is a master in fileting Salmon -- he gave me several filet options and performed masterfully! I have chartered many fishing trips in the past and was very pleased with the whole experience. The boat was clean with a nice fishing setup with tackle, and I had a great day.

Five stars for Fish and Fowl Charter!
5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 18, 20256 adults
My family and I had booked this charter on fishingbooker.com this past week. The captain (Simmons) and his first mate (his Dad) were fantastic. They were very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor. They knew exactly where to fish in mist of the very windy easterly wind. They cut up the fish for us and accommodated our many picture taking. I definitely would suggest this Charter.
