Hot Pursuit Salmon & Trout Charters
Hot Pursuit Salmon & Trout Charters
Catch fish or your next charter is free!!!
Embark on an unforgettable fishing adventure in Sheboygan! Whether you're a seasoned angler or new to the sport, we strive every hour of your trip to put as many fish in the boat as possible. We constantly switch out baits and adjust depths to ensure the best action on the water.
These waters are teeming with Brown Trout, Lake Trout, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, and more. Using expert techniques like trolling and bottom fishing, you’ll have everything needed to land a trophy catch.
Why Choose Us?
Book a trip for the ultimate experience and memories to last a lifetime!
Check other charters—then book with us.
Here’s why…
- More fishing time! Our 6-hour trip costs less than many 5-hour trips. We fish the full time you pay for—while others are back at the dock, we’re still reeling them in!
- No extra charges for up to 6 people—many charters charge more.
- Free fish cleaning! We’ll cart your catch to the cleaning station, clean, and bag it at no extra cost.
- Family & kid friendly.
Step aboard a spacious 32’ motor yacht, equipped with outriggers, downriggers, and top-quality gear. A toilet on board ensures comfort, and a First Mate will assist (a 10–20% tip is customary).
Don’t forget to purchase a local fishing license before your trip. Bring sunglasses, non spray sunscreen, and whatever food and beverages you enjoy.
(Preferably no hard liquor and glass bottles).
So don’t overpay the next time you’re looking to book.

First Charter experience
Went out for the afternoon trip on Aug 14th. It was a perfect day. Our captain Ryan had great communication throughout the whole process. He got our group of 5 all loaded up and took us out where he thought we could get some troudt. He was very aware of what water temperature should be and where they would be biting. We did pull in 3 smaller King Salmon. Was very good at keeping a lot of lines in and watching them and making changes as needed. He decided to take us in closer to try and catch some larger ones. Continued to make necessary changes in depths, and after a little while, they started biting. He did a great job telling us exactly what to do to not lose it and "we listened" We ended up catching 5 very nice King Salmon and 1 nice Coho Salmon. Total 9 for the day. Captain Ryan did not give up and made sure we got some fish. We all had a great time. Thank you for a awesome experience. We couldnt be more pleased. We will definitely be doing this again with Ryan.

Awesome Trip
My 2 sons (12 &14) and I took an 6 hr evening charter with Captain Ryan on 8/11/25. We left port near 3PM and got out to a fishing spot and within 15 mins of fishing, we pulled in a large lake trout. The crew was experienced, professional, and worked hard to find and keep us on the fish. We ended up landing 9 king salmon and one lake trout, we released one smaller king (we lost 3-4 fish). We had a blast and learned a bit about fishing for bigger fish. At one point we had two fish hooked at the same time, and my sons had a blast pulling them in. This trip exceeded my expectations in every way, Thanks Captain Ryan! We will be back for more.

Great Evening of Fishing
We had a great evening out on Lake Michigan With captain Ryan and his first mate Shawn. Everything went smoothly. They took us out to our spot, they put out several different setups and we were fishing. Things were steady fishing and we caught some nice fish thanks to the knowledge and equipment Ryan had on his boat. They set up for different species so your chances are good to catch a variety of fish. The boat was very clean, and set up nicely. We fished for our entire time even through the little rain we got. They did a great job of getting our fish cleaned up at the end of the night. Would Definitely recommend Ryan With Hot Pursuit Charters!

Nothing Quite Like.. That First King Bite.!!
Me and my buddy had an absolute Blast..!!! The boat was super fast.. and had all the latest downriggers..and tech equipment..and state of the art Sonor.. I was super impress with how well the boat was equipped..Even though you’ve got all of the latest equipment you have to still have a super knowledgeable Captain..that knows what he is doing.. and let me tell you.. Ryan definitely fits the bill..!!! We did a 4pm to 9pm (cause Ryan said the Kings were biting more around sunset..) During first 3 hours.. we only caught a tiny trout.. so Ryan and his first mate. We’re constantly changing out different “flashers” (colorful spoons on the end of the lines.. to attract the fish.) and changing the depths of the down riggers..and setting and re-setting up poles..You could tell that Ryan and his mate.. were NOT going to give up..finally the sun was finally going down.. and we switched out to the “glow in the dark”flashers.. and headed to shallower water..and just like Ryan had hoped.. THE KINGS..WERE THERE…!!! You could see them clearly on the big sonar screen.. after about 10 minutes trolling thru with the glow flashers..BAM!. we got our first hit.. and then another.. BAM! ..and another..BAM..!! we had 3 Kings on at…one time!!! our excitement was through the roof..!!!! You could tell that Ryan was super excited for us.. that we got the chance to reel in a couple of really nice Kings.. Thanks to Ryan’s knowledge, skill, and tenacity we actually were able to catch.. 6 really nice fish.. literally in the last 30 minutes.. of our trip.. Thanks Ryan.. for wanting us to catch some , nice Kings.. so badly..and thanks for never giving up..!!! I can tell, that you really love what you do..!! I would definitely be chartering with you.. again.. In the future..!! Thanks Ryan..!! 🙏

Great Charter
I've fished in Sheboygan multiple times with both big-name and smaller charters, but Ryan and First Mate Chris went above and beyond anything we've experienced before. They worked incredibly hard to give our group a great time and put fish in the boat, even under less-than-ideal conditions. Despite the challenges, they stayed committed and we ended up filling the boat. These guys are true fishermen. We're already planning to come back from North Dakota—and might even make this an annual trip. Thanks again! —Tim
