There's a fish with your name on it on Lake Hopatcong and the crew of Lake Hopatcong Fishing Charters will help you catch it!
Depending on the season, you might hook into Smallmouth Bass, Largemouth Bass, Striped Bass, and who knows what else! For these species, you're likely to spin 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. You're welcome to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!
Your vessel for the day is a 19' Ranger bass boat with capacity for 3 passengers. It has a fighting chair, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures.
Before coming aboard, it will be required 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 always wise to bring sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Before the trip, Captain Shawn called multiple times to let me know exactly where we should meet, when he felt fish would be more active, and which lake would he recommend. He helped with getting directions as which fishing license is needed, what to wear, and what to bring with us. When my son and I showed up to the lake, we felt we were prepared like seasoned pros for the adventure ahead. Fom the getgo, Captain built a great rapport with my son, and my son loved being able to ask any question he had, and share his own life eperiences with the Captain. We got to our first destination with a few minute speed ride, wind blowing through our hair at the picturesque Lake Wallenpaupack. We started our journey at 11 am, and it seemed to be geat time to get a lot of bites. During the trip, we caught three small mouth Bass, two large mouth Bass, and an incredible Northern Pike which was absolutely spectacular. During this trip, my son got to try different fishing methods, learned how to cast and also learned about the things to look for to find good fish. Both my son and I would love to go out again with Captain Shawn in the upcoming months. I am very appreciative of him making our first son adventure so memorable.
Michael, Thank you for the 5-star review! I really enjoyed having you out on Lake Wallenpaupack. It’s always a pleasure sharing this fishery with my guests, and I’m glad you had such a great experience. Hope we can do it again!
Weather was rainy. Shawn was sensitive to our comfort, found fish in many different areas and helped in every way possible.
Thank you for the 5-star review! I had a great time fishing Lake Hopatcong with you and really appreciate you choosing to spend the day on the water with me. I’m glad you enjoyed the trip, and I hope we get another chance to fish together soon!
