Bending Limits Sportfishing is all about fishing the stunning waters of Muskegon.

Steelhead, Chinook Salmon, Brown Trout, and more are in the cards if you cast your line at the right time of year. On these trips, it's common to spin using light tackle. Your captain also offers fly fishing, and the gear is included. You might need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

Your vessel for the day is an 18' Aluminum fishing with space for 3 passengers. It has all the essentials. Your captain will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect. Children are welcome.

Some essentials to bring are snacks, sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. 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 Bending Limits Sportfishing!

    Great Captain, Great Experience!

    4 Hour Trip – PM (2 MAX) on September 27, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had a great experience fishing with Captain Brandyn! He was easygoing, friendly, professional, and made the trip enjoyable from start to finish. Unfortunately, the fish just weren’t cooperating that day, but it certainly wasn’t for lack of effort. Brandyn worked hard, trying different spots and techniques to give us the best opportunity to catch fish. Even though we didn’t bring any fish home, we still had a wonderful time on the water and really appreciated Brandyn’s patience and determination. That’s fishing—you can’t always make the fish bite! We would absolutely book another trip with Captain Brandyn and look forward to fishing with him again.

Captain Brandyn Thorsen is a United States Coast Guard licensed captains. Capt. Brandyn began Salmon fishing with his father when he was 6 years old. The day he hooked his first Salmon was the day his obsession with Great Lakes Salmon fishing began. There is absolutely no place on earth he would rather be than fishing for Trout and Salmon on Lake Michigan. For Captain Brandyn, it is a true passion in all aspects.
