Specializing in Salmon and Lake Trout fishing in the waters near Mackinac Island, Les Cheneaux, and the DeTour passage! Join Island Charters for a memorable experience you won't soon forget!

Chinook Salmon, Lake Trout, Atlantic Salmon, Coho Salmon, Pink Salmon, and Steelhead inhabit these waters! On these trips, it's common to troll using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Greg of Island Charters also offers fly fishing and casting trips for Pike and Smallmouth Bass.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? 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 cranky on an empty belly!

Capt. Greg operates a 25' Sportcraft offshore sport fishing boat with space for 6 passengers. It comes with downriggers and all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures and everything else you would need to land the trophy fish!

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.

Before coming aboard, you will be required 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. It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Island Charters!

Had a fantastic time. Made some great memories for the 13 year-old kids.
Offshore Trout Jigging Am or Pm - 1:00 PM on August 15, 20264 adults

Had a great time. Caught lots of fish and gave 2 13-year-olds bragging rights for the summer. Captain Greg was fantastic with the 2 boys kept them under control. Kept them occupied with fish On the line and his knowledge of the Great Lakes. couldn’t have asked for a better trip.

Detour to De Tour for family fun.
Half Day Trip – Salmon/Trout (AM) on June 23, 20262 adults2 children

Captain Greg recommended that we move our departure location from Cedarville to De Tour Village for better fishing, and we ended up landing a bunch of lake trout on a picture perfect day! We think we had a couple salmon on the lines but they ended up fighting until they released themselves. No matter, as we have plenty to cook for our fish tacos that we are cooking right now! Great trip, highly recommended.

Island Charters run trips out of Cedarville aboard a 25' Sportcraft offshore sport fishing as well as out of Wyandotte aboard a 17' Sylvan. These waters are known for Salmon, Trout, and Walleye and they will show you how to catch them, whether you're trolling or fly fishing. With years of experience, they have a trick or two up their sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join them out on the water!
