We had a fantastic time catching salmon with Captain Scott and Captain Don. We’ve never fished on Lake Michigan and didn’t have high expectations - we figured we would be doing well to catch 1 or 2. Boy, were we wrong! We caught 12 salmon and probably could have caught more if they hadn’t given us time to recuperate from the rapid succession of reeling in fish. The captain is excellent and the boat and gear are great. I would highly recommend this charter to anyone seeking an amazing fishing trip.
thanks for joining us- it was a lot of action and a beautiful morning.
 Both captains were awesome! 
Thanks for fishing with us Jeff. you guys were fun to have aboard the 3rd Rock! Hope to see you agian!
