If you’re ready to enjoy fishing in Duluth, book a trip with Chasin’ Tail Charters MN. With Captain Joseph at the helm, you’re in knowledgeable and experienced hands.

These waters hold game fish like Lake Trout, Coho Salmon, Chinook Salmon, Walleye, and more. You can expect to do some trolling, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

You’ll be dropping lines from a 32’ Tiara motor yacht that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Joseph will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures.

Before coming aboard, it will be necessary 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 may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that daydream into a reality, with Chasin’ Tail Charters MN.

Half Day Trip – Weekday Special PM

Hat Trick!

VERIFIED
NEW

Maybe it was the cold snap in mid-July, maybe it was the great crew, we know it wasn’t our expert angling… but whatever the cause, we caught BIG fish and GREAT numbers! The captain was patient out group aged 4 to 74. We caught about a dozen lakers, and a coho and king salmon to boot. We lost a few too on our own account. With the amount of fish we had, we elected to wrap up our half-day trip a half hour early to catch the next lift bridge passing. It took some hustle to get lines in, but Joe and his first mate worked fast. Joe’s boat rips, and we made it with a few minutes to spare. Joe’s gear is exceptional and his boat was immaculate for a charter fishing vessel. Loved having backrests on the benches. He kept it clean, helped all the kids and grandparents to hold fish, get pics, and keep the tip up when dealing in some 10+ pounders. If I ever charter out of Superior again, I’ll look to Joe first. Thanks for a great trip!

I booked this trip for my husband & 2 sons ( ones autistic), they had such an amazing time, I’d give him 10 stars! They learned a lot about the lake, & caught many fish. This by far was the best money I spent in Duluth. His staff Jack & Fiancé were so kind, great people they can’t wait to do it again. Bonus is they were understanding to my son with autism so that makes a mom proud. ( other boats went out & didn’t catch fish) Thank you all for the memories they made!

Captain Joe and 1st mate Cam did a great job for my wife and myself. We had lots of action and were able to take some fish home to eat. It was a very well-run trip, Joe has excellent equipment and a nice clean boat, and he and Cam were easy to talk to and provided a fun fishing experience. Joe made my wife feel special (not surprisingly she caught the most fish) and we thoroughly enjoyed our trip. We highly recommend Chasing Tails.

My family and friends entered Captain Joseph’s boat laughing and experiencing great vibes and we exited his boat laughing and having experienced Captain Joseph’s impressive stand up comedy routine, knowledgeable q&a sessions, and control and devotion as a boat captain! Prior to the trip, I referred him to other people in town, and after the trip, my crew and I are already spreading the word to book Captain Joseph for your fishing guide. All the adults loved his hustle and down to earth personality. And we caught fish - King Salmon among our catches!

We had a great time on our all day fishing trip with Captain Joe and Corey. We caught Coho and Lake Trout. He has great equipment. The weather turned on us while we were out and Captain Joe decided we should come in a bit early. The wind was pretty strong and the lake was rough. The boat was well equipped to handle it. Both the captain and mate were friendly and fun to fish with.
