There's a fish with your name on it in Lakeside Marblehead and 419 Lake Erie Sportfishing will help you catch it!

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Walleye, Yellow Perch, and who knows what else! On these trips, you can expect to troll or cast using light or heavy tackle.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Age requirement 6 or older. Snacks are also a good idea!

You'll be casting lines from a 30' Tiara Coronet sportfishing vessel that can carry up to 6 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Captain Zac will supply rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is included.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates work for tips only and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.

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. This must be purchased prior to the trip.
Look up the Ohio Fishing License website to obtain your license.

Don't leave home without bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with 419 Lake Erie Sportfishing.

    Great trip! Makes me want to go back tomorrow!

    7 Hour Trip – Walleye (AM) on July 3, 2026 • 6 adults

    Slower day on the water and it was HOT!!! But captain Zac was there for us and adjusted how we fished. Started the day drifting fishing and casting, but the bite wasn’t as intense as he or us wanted, so we went trolling and we all had a blast! He wanted us to help with the system, not just let him do all the work and we reel it in like we’re a toddler with their dad.. we learned so much and felt like we were apart of the team.. we will return!

    This was our first fishing trip on Lake Erie. Captain Zac did an outstanding job getting us on the Walleye. We caught our limit. The boat and equipment were top notch. The weather was great. My wife and I really enjoyed our trip with Captain Zac. I highly recommend him!

    Great Experience

    Sunset Cruise Fishing Trip - 5:00 PM on June 23, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    We signed up for an afternoon cruise, but the weather was good and we decided to go for a full 4-hour trip. We ended up limiting out on walleye and it's a trip our seven-year-old won't forget.

    Awesome Lake Erie Trip

    Sunset Cruise Fishing Trip on July 2, 2025 • 5 adults • 2 children

    I wanted to introduce my son to lake fishing, and thought a sunset cruise trip would be a great place to start. So my friend and I brought our boys, and Captain Zac did an awesome job for us. From the start it was easy and a great experience. Very welcoming and helped us get set up and on some fish. On the drive home was already thinking of when we can take some time to do a longer trip, highly recommend for anyone looking for either a quick trip out on the lake or a first try to see how either you or your kids like it. Great time!

    Great time!

    Sunset Cruise Fishing Trip on July 8, 2025 • 5 adults • 3 children

    Booked a last minute evening trip while on vacation in Ohio for my two boys (ages 11 and 8) who recently discovered they love fishing. Zac was fabulous with my boys and helped them with everything they needed (since mom and dad don't fish 😂). They caught several walleyes and fresh water drum. They had the time of their lives and it is an experience they will always remember. Will definitely book again if we come back.

    Awesome experience!

    Sunset Cruise Fishing Trip on July 10, 2025 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Captain Zac was the best! He was so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful! He didn't even get annoyed by our millions of questions :) he knew right where to go to get the fish and we had a great time. Everytime we cast we pulled in a fish. It was an awesome fishing trip!

Best Charter yet!
Sunset Cruise Fishing Trip on July 16, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

This was our fifth fishing charter we have taken and it was by far the best! Captain Zac was so friendly and great with our kids! He took us to a fantastic spot and we caught lots of fish! (Walleye, Catfish and Drum) Seriously, 5 out of 6 of us caught 2+ fish with our oldest daughter catching 6! He filleted the fish for us and we ate it that night! I would recommend Zac for everyone!! Thank you Zac!

Just right!
Sunset Cruise Fishing Trip on June 30, 2026 • 4 adults

This trip was just right for our family! Caught some Walleye, Channel Cats and White Bass. Captain Zac did his best to put us on fish and we caught some keepers that he cleaned and bagged for us. I would recommend this trip for anyone looking for a couple of hours fishing, whether you are expeienced or a novice.

Outstanding Trip
Half day trip on June 19, 2026 • 5 adults

Great trip, Great Captain, everything even better than expected. Captain Zac was very helpful, knowledgeable, good natured, and patient. Boat was very clean, and well set up with more than enough room for 5 adults. Caught very close to our Walleye limit on a 4 hr trip. Will definitely recommend and hopefully do this again.
