Morning trip out of Manistee with Captain Lenny right after Labor Day 2024 produced plenty of action with 9 out of 10 fish being around 20# !! Cap Lenny is the most skilled charter captain we have ever fished with and a lot of fun to boot - when he is not working his butt off. Highly recommend booking on Slip Knot!

Cold water? Wind? No problem! Capt Lenny worked hard to put us on the fish and we brought them in!
My daughter and son-in-law planned a trip from Maryland to visit me here. They are both fishing enthusiasts and they wanted to fish on Lake Michigan. I asked around for a good and reliable charter. Captain Lenny, I was told, knew where to find fish. This turned out to be absolutely true. He accurately predicted when and where we would catch salmon. We caught a whole large cooler full of King Salmon. We were all delighted! It was a perfect outing! We are planning to do this again next year.
We went out for a full day trip with Captain Lenny and ended up filling up the cooler before noon. Had a great time and a great experience. I highly recommend Slipknot Charters (Captain Lenny) to everyone looking to catch some awesome kings.
