Spend the day with Classic Time Sportfishing and get hooked on fishing in Conneaut!

Depending on the season, you might hook into Walleye, Yellow Perch, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), and whatever else is biting. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself fishing with heavy tackle, trolling, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Feel free to bring your own snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Capt. Michael welcomes you aboard a 28' Carolina Classic with room for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures.

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

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's recommended to bring sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

    We went out for walleye on a saturday and limited out in 2 hours. We had an exellent time on the Classic Time. The Cpt. and first mate had been incredibly knowledgeable and adept at getting us on fish and explaining how and why in terms of riging and tactics. Fantastic dudes

    Half Day Trip (AM) on August 15, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

    Great people and great fishing, 5 of us limited out. I’ve been with 4 or 5 different charters, this is by far the most action I’ve seen. We’ll be booking another trip next summer.

    Half Day Trip (PM) on August 16, 2025 • 5 adults

    Our party had a great time out with Mike and Randy who were very professional, and polite. I can't recommend these guys enough! They display excellence in all they do from the cleanliness and quality of the boat and equipment they maintain, to the vast knowledge they shared to make this not only a great fishing trip, but an educational one as well. Our entire group HIGHLY RECOMMEND Classic Time Sportfishing! We'll definately be back!

    August fishing trip

    Half Day Trip (PM) on August 31, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child

    My 7 year old had the time of his life for his birthday trip! Mike and crew were awesome with him and the rest of our group. Very knowledgeable and encouraging. I’ve never seen pride like that on my son’s face and they made it all possible. Anytime we come back up to Conneaut, we will choose Classic Time for our fishing charter, and will recommend them to all of our family and friends.

    Amazing time on the water

    Full Day Trip (AM) on August 31, 2025 • 4 adults

    Thank you to Classic Time Sportfishing for an amazing time on the water! The boat was very nice, and as soon as we got to the fishing spot we caught fish almost immediately, we had a 4 man limit before 10 AM. Fish cleaning was also a nice perk to be included, ABSOLUTELY will use them again in the future.

Limited out in 1 hour
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 25, 2026 • 4 adults

Mike and Randy were outstanding captains. Once they got us out to the spot we were reeling in fish nonstop until we hit our limit. Both of them were hard at work keeping as many lines out as possible to keep up with the fish. Great gear and boat. Will be going with them again in the future.

Walleye

The crew was great and we had a goodtime.
Full Day Trip (AM) on August 23, 2026 • 4 adults

The Captain knew where to go and we had our limit in no time. It got a little choppie on the was back but he rode the top of the waves which made a confortable ride. Beautiful boat and havng a potty on board was a nice extra benefit. lol
