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!
