Book your next trip with Mike Harter and find out what fishing in Westminster is all about. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Mike can tell you all about them.

These waters are known for Largemouth Bass, Striped Bass, Spotted Bass, and more – with any luck, it won’t take long to hook into some.
On these trips, it’s common to troll using light tackle.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

You’ll be casting lines from a 22’ Bennington pontoon boat with space for 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

Before coming aboard, you’ll 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.

Some essentials to bring are bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now’s the time to experience fishing in Westminster for yourself, with Fishing With Mike Harter!
