Looper Charters Lake Superior invites you on a fishing adventure of a lifetime on the beautiful Lake Superior out of Duluth, Minnesota. The charter is operated by Captain Brody Kaldahl who has dedicated the past 10 years to guiding on Lake Superior and learning how to make it the best experience possible.

Captain Brody will take you fishing for Lake Trout, Steelhead, Salmon, or Walleye depending on the season you go out. You will have all the fishing gear provided in the form of rods, reels, tackle, lures, and live bait, so all you have to bring is a fishing license and a good mood. Captain Brody works with a mate who will help you reel in your catch, so pay attention and learn from the pros.

The vessel boasts a toilet, a kitchen, a bed, and a comfortable seating area for when you tire of fighting the fish. There is also a GPS and a fishfinder that will help you locate the best fishing spots, as well as an icebox for your catch, and outriggers.

Looper Charters Lake Superior can take you on fishing trips that will allow you to also sightsee and take in the largest of the Great Lakes of North America.

Half Day Trip on August 3, 20262 adults

We had an amazing time on our charter fishing trip! The captain was friendly, knowledgeable, and worked hard to put us on the fish. He made sure everyone felt comfortable and answered all of our questions throughout the day. The boat was clean and well-maintained, and the overall experience was organized and enjoyable from start to finish. We caught some beautiful fish, made great memories, and would absolutely book another trip. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fun and successful day on the water!

A trip to remember
Half Day Trip - 12:15 PM on May 24, 20262 adults

My wife and I have gone through Captain Brody before and we had a great time the first time around. We stopped in Duluth and made another trip and it surely was one to remember. Both Brody and his first mate, Canyon, did an amazing job getting us on fish and making us feel at home aboard. It really felt like we never left the first time because only an hour in and we already almost hit our bag limit on some quality fish. Between doubling up on some nice Lakers and an awesome fight with my first King Salmon, safe to say its gonna be hard to top this trip. Thank you again you guys, we look forward to many more annual trips to come!

Family Memories & Great Fishing on Lake Superior
4 Hour Trip – Twilight on July 31, 20262 adults2 children

We had a great experience with Looper Charters on Lake Superior! We caught fish, had a lot of fun, and the captain made for an enjoyable trip. The highlight of the day was watching my kids reel in their fish and seeing how excited they were. Those memories are something our family will always cherish. If you're looking for a fun family fishing adventure on Lake Superior, I would definitely recommend Looper Charters!

Excellent fishing experience!
Half Day Trip on June 24, 20264 adults

Captain Brody was a great host! He had a very clean and organized boat, with a wide variety of fishing equipment to ensure we had the best opportunity to catch fish. Very knowledgeable of the area and he was good at explaining the fishing techniques. We fishied a half day and started catching lake trout right away. We ended up with many lake trout, a Coho, King, and a large walleye! Captain took photos for us and cleaned the fish when we returned to the harbor. We are going back for a second day and I would definitely book with Looper Charters again. Thank you!

Caught a king worthy of a crown!
Half Day Trip on June 12, 20262 adults

Here’s a polished version: Captain Brody was quick to answer my questions by text through the app before our trip, and he and his mate (Kainan? spelling) had the boat and gear ready to go when we arrived. Our morning started a little slowly as the fish didn't bite at first but after about 45 min my son landed a lake trout, this was followed by a few salmon. The excitement really grew when he brought in a large King salmon! It was so fun to see the crew just as excited as we were. We had a successful and memorable fishing trip and would highly recommend this charter!
