Looking for a memorable experience fishing Salmon and Trout on beautiful Lake Michigan? Look no further because there's a fish with your name on it in Port Washington and Fishin Da Net will help you catch it! With Captain Dave at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.
Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Lake Trout, Brown Trout, and more can be found in these waters if you come at the right time of year. Capt. Dave and his first mate do all the hard work setting lines and locating the fish. You catch the fish and we clean them for you to take home to enjoy!
Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!
Capt. Dave operates a 28' Sea Ray boat that holds up to 4 adult passengers. They can accommodate up to 6 passengers total if 2 or more are younger children. They have all the safety and fishing equipment, including rods, reels, lures, and electronics. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.
There usually will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. Mates work for tips and it's customary to offer them about a 15-20% tip.
Before coming aboard, you will need a Wisconsin fishing license and Great Lakes Trout and Salmon stamp for everyone in your group 16 years of age or older. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.
Some essentials to bring are drinks, sunglasses, sunscreen, snacks, and appropriate clothing, such as sweatshirts and rain gear. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Our family booked with Captain Dave after looking at many charters from Port Washington to Sheybogan. Captain Dave and First Mate Glen were great hosts and made our family feel welcomed. We had a 5&9 year old on born and Glen was excellent at keeping the kids engaged. Dave worked the whole trip to ensure lines had all the different lures needed for a good trip. Dave kept the lines in the water all the way to the end with 3 of our fish coming on the way back into the harbor. We ended up with 8 nice fish and we all had a great time. Would absolutely book with Dave again!

Thank you for the review, Andy. It was our pleasure to have you and your family on board for a fun fishing adventure. We would love to have you back for another trip in the future!
Captain Dave and First Mate Brad were fantastic hosts for our half day charter. They had a great boat setup, clearly communicated what they needed from us to reel in big fish, and answered a lot of questions from my 10yo son. Overall, experience was one I would highly recommend and we walked away with 12 salmon and one nice brown trout neatly filleted for quite a bounty.

Thanks for the review and for booking the trip, Brian. We enjoyed having your crew fishing with us. I hope to have you back again!
Captain Dave and mate Todd are a terific team! They’re personable, engaging and knowledgeable about their craft. We’re repeat customers and each time we’ve gone out with them we’ve had great outcomes - today we were one fish shy of limit! Highly recommend if you’re heading out from Port Washington, WI to do some salmon fishing on the “Big Lake.”

Thank you, Perry! Todd and I enjoy fishing with you and is our pleasure to have you on board with us. We appreciate the excellent company. Thanks again for the repeat booking. Smooth sailing till next time!
We had a great morning fishing with Captain Dave and First Mate Todd. Our grandsons are 5 and 6 and this was their first Lane Michigan trip. The team did a wonderful job keeping the kids involved and we successfully brought back a nice haul of fish.

Thanks for the review, Craig. We enjoyed having you and your crew with the grandsons on board for an excellent fishing adventure! Hope to have you back again.

This was our second outing with Captain Dave. Our trip was originally planned for Monday, but small craft advisory prevented us going out. Dave reached out early Sunday evening to let us know and he so kindly rescheduled us to Wednesday morning. The trip was so educational, exciting for our 14 yr old grandson and friend not to mention Gma/Gpa. We can't wait to go again! Thanks Dave and Todd!!

Thanks again for the review, Regina. Day 2 was another great day indeed. Todd, Glenn, and I sure enjoyed having you all aboard for the two day trip. I hope to have you back in the future! Thanks for booking!
