Welcome to Chicago, the land of multi-species fishing, where we target and fish a variety of lakes, such as Lake Michigan, Wolf Lake, and Chicago River.
Introducing the Steelhead, latest addition to Thin Blue Line Fishing. This 2024 Ranger VX1988 is powered by a 200hp Mercury Pro, complemented by a 9.9 Mercury Kicker motor. It’s equipped with an 80lb thrust Minkota Terrova I-Pilot featuring spotlock, two 10-inch Garmin 106SV units, two electric Cannon downriggers, and a Bluetooth radio.
Whether casting or trolling, Steelhead is primed for successful fishing trips on Lake Michigan, targeting Salmon, Trout, Smallmouth Bass, Pike, and Perch. Additionally, Steelhead will be available for sport fishing on inland lakes. I can’t wait for our upcoming adventures aboard Steelhead!
You can bring kids on your trip, and you’re allowed to keep the fish you catch.
Captain Ernesto covers you for all the rods, reels, tackle, and lures. Before you come aboard, just make sure you have your fishing licenses as well as some food and drinks.
Don’t hesitate, book your trip now!
