Make some memories in Croton and go fishing with Majestic Michigan Charters. Captain Josh will be your guide, bringing aboard years of local experience. Captain Josh studied fly fishing guiding at the Sweetwater Guide School in Montana and graduated in the summer of 2025.

These waters are known for Salmon, Walleye, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Brown Trout, Northern Pike, and more – with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself spinning, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Josh also offers fly fishing. For the more adventurous among you, there's spearfishing.

Planning a family adventure? 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. And, you can't go wrong with snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Your fishing machine for the day is a 16' Smoker Craft drift boat with capacity for 2 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures.

Before coming aboard, it may be necessary 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.

Don't leave home without bottled water, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

    Great guide and awesome trip!

    Half Day Trip – Fall Salmon on September 19, 2026 • 2 adults

    Monte our guide took us out for salmon fishing during the salmon run on the Manistee, at first we booked for the Muskegon river but Monte called me and gave us alot of information of the current conditions and fish on Muskegon for our trip. He encouraged us if we were willing to change the location that the fishing would be better and he was right on the money, he got us beside 50+ fish and kept us right on them. My fathers first time fishing and salmon fishing at that was great, he landed his first fish ever! Thank you to our guide Monte and the guys at Majestic Michigan Outfitters for this memorable trip! 10/10

    Loved the Drifter Boat

    Half Day Trip – Walleye on May 17, 2025 • 2 adults

    Josh took excellent care of me and my wife. He is knowledgeable and confident handling himself and his boat. We had a fantastic time! He took us to a spot on the river with abundant fish. We caught fish consistently—five within an hour. Though a few got away, Josh even cleaned our catch at no charge and provided us with a container to carry the fish home. Unlike other charter companies that charge per fish, he made the trip enjoyable and stress-free. Thank you, Josh! We look forward to booking another trip with you at your amazing price!

    Great day on the river

    Half Day Trip – Trout Fishing on May 25, 2025 • 2 adults

    My son and I had a wonderful fishing trip with Captain Josh. He was friendly, courteous, down to earth, and really took the time to help us. My son, an avid fisherman, tried fly fishing for the first time and caught his first brown trout. Would highly recommend this company, as the captain goes beyond his duty to ensure you have a great experience!
