 60 Steele Street, Algoma, WI 54201, United States

There’s a fish with your name on it in Algoma and West Wind Charters will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Barry can tell you all about the local fishery.

These waters are known for Brown Trout, Lake Trout, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, and more – with any luck, you’ll find out for yourself! During the trip you might be trolling, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Your boat for the day is a 36’ Trojan F-36 Convertible that holds up to 6 passengers. It comes with downriggers and all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. It’s customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation. You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, 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. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

And that’s it! Your fishing trip with West Wind Charters LLC is just a click away.

Capt. Barry runs trips out of Algoma aboard a Trojan F-36 Convertible. These waters are known for Salmon and Trout and he will show you how to catch them. With great knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
