Dirty 30 Lake Erie Charters
Book your next trip with Dirty 30 Lake Erie Charters and discover what keeps anglers returning to Lake Erie for more.
Local species include Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, Steelhead, Lake Trout, Largemouth Bass, Crappie, Yellow Perch, and more. Fish caught during the trip are yours to take home, so long as they’re within the legal limit.
Our fleet includes 2 boats to accommodate various trips. Both boats are fully rigged with top of the line equipment to provide you with the best experience possible.
For our walleye trips, you will find yourself aboard a 27 foot Proline Walkaround powered by a 2019 Mercury 300. It is fully outfitted with a top of the line fish finder, electric downriggers, and rod holders. The boat has plenty of seating and can accommodate up to 4 guests. It also has a nice clean restroom on board for emergencies.
Our other boat is used for bass and panfish trips and smaller parties. It is a 2018 Ranger 620 powered by an Evinrude Etec 250hp. The boat is fully rigged with 2 Lowrance carbons with structure scan and active target. In addition it has a Minn Kota Ultrex 112 with spot lock, as well as all top of the line tackle to chase big smallies, crappies and walleye.
Each person must have a valid PA fishing license and Lake Erie Permit. 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.
It’s recommended to bring snacks, sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on the boat, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.
Now and then, the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. So make it happen with Dirty 30 Lake Erie Charters!

Morning Walleye
Great 2 days of fishing!
We spent 2 mornings with Capt Kevin and Capt Jamie and had an absolute blast! They put us on fish as soon as we got out there and made sure our fishing experience was great! The first day was perfect weather and hit our limit super quick with some big fish. The second day the weather was off and on storms and really choppy lake conditions but both Capts took our safety into consideration first and waited out the storm, fishing was a bit slower but we still got our limit within our time frame. Highly recommend Dirty30 for walleye fishing, hopefully going to do some bass fishing with him in the future!
