If you're ready to start fishing in Geneva-on-the-Lake, we've got you covered with Byler's Sportfishing Charters.

Walleye, and more inhabit these waters if you cast your line at the right time of year. For these species, you're likely to troll.

Families who love fishing together 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. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Your day begins aboard a 23' Parker pilothouse that holds up to 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are included. Live bait is included, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

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

Some essentials to bring are bottled water, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Byler's Sportfishing Charters.
