Let's Hook Up Fishing Charters
Let's Hook Up Fishing Charters
Spend the day with Let's Hook Up Fishing Charters and let them show you what makes the fishing in Geneva-on-the-Lake so memorable! Captain Donny will be your guide, bringing aboard years of local experience.
Walleye, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Yellow Perch, and more can be found in these waters, depending on the time of year. For these species, you're likely to troll using light tackle.
If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!
You'll be dropping lines from a 24' Wellcraft walkaround with room for 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are ready for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
Before coming aboard, you'll need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Excellent Time
The trip was amazing. My boy and I went and had a great time. The captain was very personable and shared different fishing techniques. Great conversation. He took time to try to catch a steelhead on our way in. Our time was already up, but he really wanted to see if one would bite. It was a long shot, due to the time of year, but he took the time to do it. I appreciated it. Thank you for a great trip. We are planning on another trip for 2026.

Great Day on the Lake
My son and I went out for our first chartered trip and had a great experience with Let's Hook Up Fishing Charters. Captain Donny was very proactive in communicating with us and happily answered any questions we had. He really made an effort to ensure that the trip was what we wanted. He knew right where to put us on the fish but he didn't try to rush us to limit out and hurry back to the dock. Instead, he gave us plenty of time to move at our own pace and really enjoy the day. If you're looking for a charter on Lake Erie, I'd highly recommend Let's Hook Up!

This Captain was AWESOME!!!
This was my first experience with a charter fishing boat. Captain Don was absolutely amazing. He made sure we found a day that the waves were not too high. He took us to his favorite hot spots and we caught great walleye. The fish averaged about 22” long. He was very generous about how long it took us to catch the best walleye. This captain is the best I could ever imagine. if I could rate him higher, it would be an absolute 10. i will recommend him to whoever I can. Thanks Don for an AWESOME time.

"LET'S HOOK UP" is the way to go!
This trip was a father's day gift from myself and our children for my husband! The Captain, Donny, was amazing from start to finish! Communication was easy and frequent when necessary. Accommodating when we had to change our trip date. Overall pleasant and friendly, helpful and welcoming! My husband's smile after the trip said it all! My mother-in-law enjoyed herself as well. This was their first charter experience and they both will be returning to book with Let's Hook Up again!

Got our limit of beautiful walleyes
We fished with Captain Donny on 6/12/25 and had a great time. Donny is a knowledgeable fisherman, as we limited out with a bounty of nice walleyes. He tried a few different baits until we found the right combination for this particular day. We averaged 18"-24" with a couple 25-27" and one fish Ohio at 28.5". Im looking forward to the next time we can fish with Captain Donny as we had a great day on the water.We threw many 16-17" fish back.
