If you're ready to love fishing on Saginaw River, look no further than Danny Boy Fishing Charters. With Captain Duane at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.

These waters are known for Catfish, White Bass, Flounder, Muskellunge (Musky), Freshwater Drum, Smallmouth Bass, Sturgeon, Carp, Dogfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Walleye, and more – with any luck, it won't be long before "Fish on!" For these species, you're likely to troll using light tackle.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! 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 to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Your fishing machine for the day is a 24' Sylvan cuddy cabin with space for 2 passengers. It has downriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Duane will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Before coming aboard, you will 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 might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

A few items to bring include a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, come aboard with Danny Boy Fishing Charters and get hooked!
