Your adventure begins aboard a 33’ Wellcraft sportfishing vessel that holds up to 6 passengers. This wide and stable platform ensures a smooth ride on beautiful Lake Michigan. It comes with downriggers, all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Mike will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures.
A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Before coming aboard, it may be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.
It’s always wise to bring sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Captains Michael and Jacob were excellent. They took great care of us and were fun to interact with. They put us on fish and kept us on them the entire trip. My sons and I highly recommend J Hooked for your next Lake Michigan charter trip.

We had a great morning fishing with them. They educated us and helped with everything. We fished with three 12 year olds and the captain and first mate were very patient and helpful in teaching them. Would highly recommend J Hooked sportfishing to anyone.
