El-Lin Sport Fishing Charters
El-Lin Sport Fishing Charters is all about fishing the stunning waters of Ludington. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Dave knows them forwards and back.
Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Salmon, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Lake Trout, Brown Trout, Coho Salmon, and plenty more. You'll target your catch by trolling, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!
You'll be fishing aboard a 28' Cherokee sportfishing boat that holds up to 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Rods, reels, and tackle are included.
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 sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. Drinks and snacks can be available for you at an additional cost. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

We went out for a PM charter. Captain Keen behind the wheel. A couple preteen boys who had never been out before and we were still able to go 8 for 13 on a pretty rough night. The captain and first mate was excellent-patient and calm with us and coached us through it. Overall we loved fishing with them and would go again!
Caught fish fast and furious right from start. At one time had five fish on lines. I’ve been out at ludington four different years and never caught them so fast and of this size.

thanks Stuart , great day on the Big Pond, hope to see you and John again .

Captain and captain were dedicated to giving us a fun trip. 12 fish in the boat is a great day any day of the year.. Captain Cale was busting his ass, always looking for a way to improve the odds.. a grasp of technology. Worked hard always changing up what wasn’t working. Great experience for everyone

thanks for a great time

We caught some big salmon, and it was a great time!

thanks , it was a great day on the lake.
