If you plan on fishing in Green Bay, look no further than FinFanatic Charters.

I am a multi-species guide and work my tail off (pardon the pun) to put clients on fish in all situations. My goal is to not only put clients in a position to catch fish, but to educate them on what I do and how I do it, so they may take away the knowledge to produce similar results on their own.

I have been fishing and hunting my whole life.  Raised in Upper Michigan, I grew up in a sportsman's paradise - with a Father, Grandfather and many Uncles that were constantly taking me out and teaching me the finer points of fishing and hunting. I have over 40 years' experience fishing and boating on the Great Lakes.

I am a member of the NPAA, Sheboygan Walleye Club, The Walleye Federation, Walleyes for Tomorrow, the Green Bay Area Great Lakes Sport Fishermen, and the Kewaunee Great Lakes Sport Fishermen. I am a USCG Licensed Captain (since 2007) and a Wisconsin Licensed Guide. I have also been trained in basic and advanced First Aid and CPR/AED. I have many years of tournament experience and guiding under my belt.

I specialize in fishing for mainly Walleye on the trophy-rich waters of Green Bay, and Sturgeon Bay.  I also spend considerable time guiding on The Fox River, Lake Winnebago, and the Wolf River along with chartering for Trout and Salmon on Lake Michigan out of Kewaunee and Sturgeon Bay.

I truly live to fish and teach fishing techniques to others and share my knowledge and expertise and strive to make your on the water experience the best it can possibly be.
Children of all ages are welcome aboard making fishing with us a Family Affair.
We operate a state of the art boat and electronics set up and only use top quality gear.

Alcohol is welcome aboard to be enjoyed in moderation.
Tactics may vary between Jigging and Trolling depending on the season and fish locations.

    Great experience

    Half Day Trip – Salmon (AM) on July 22, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

    We had plans to do the salmon trip but the weather was not cooperating so we pivoted and did a walleye trip instead. Communication was timely and helpful. We met at a convenient marina and within 90 minutes of boarding the boat we were catching fish. In the downtimes we learned about the area we were fishing, different species of fish, and conservation efforts. We had three adults and one teenager with and everyone had a great time.

    GREAT TIME IN GREEN BAY!

    Half Day Trip – Walleye - 1:00 PM on July 14, 2026 • 3 adults

    This was our first time using Fishing Booker and I would definitely recommend anyone who is traveling to do the same. I would also highly recommend Captain Bob and Finfanatic Charters as well. He was professional, knowledgeable and so kind to our 11 year old little boy who was enjoying his first fishing trip! 5 stars!
