Captain Brad was the perfect choice for our family outing in mid-August. We had four (4) adults and two (2) younger children, most with little fishing experience. That said, Captain Brad not only made everybody feel immediately comfortable and off to casting and catching right away. Though we ran into a bit of rough water on the way out, he was well prepared, and warned us ahead of time. The rest of the day was both beautiful, and rewarding. Catching a mix of some keeper Walleye, Perch, and Catfish plus Sheephead and Goby to toss back made for excitement all around. In addition to his duties as Captain, bait helper, and casting teacher, Captain Brad was wonderful with the kids, telling some tall tales and finding fun things to show them when they needed a break from fishing. Overall, we’d highly recommend Captain Brad to both the serious fishing folks and casual casters alike.

Such a great family fishing trip!! My husband and I took our 6 year old on a half day morning charter.  It was great!! We were literally the only ones catching fish so quickly.  Captain Brad’s experience was clear! He knew where the perch were and other boats literally started circling ours.  He was very patient with my son and ensured that his hook was always baited and his line in the water.  Can’t wait for next year!!  The half day was perfect for little ones.

Brad had everything ready to go for our 7am fishing trip on Lake Erie. Over the course of two days, Brad helped show us how to better fish for Walleye and it became quickly apparent that he knew right where to take us. The boat charter community is tight-knit and it is important to have a captain who knows a lot of other captains and has a vested interest in helping one another. Brad was constantly communicating with other close captains to insure that we were always catching fish. Brad would move the boat when necessary and he was always on top of pulling a fish out of the water for us once we reeled them up. Some of the best charter service we have had in a while. In the end we caught our limit on the first day within a few hours and almost got our limit on the second day in 4 hours. My hats off to Brad for providing a great experience.

Brad of Reef Bobber’s captained a very enjoyable Monday morning half day charter for myself, two other adults and most importantly my 9 yo nephew Owen (pictured above)  Brad was punctual, very personable and the boat and the equipment was all spot on.  Brad could not have been more attentive to Owen and sent him home with fish, fish stories and anticipation of his next charter.

Captain brad knows the lake, works with other networks of fishermen to get rhe most out of your day. Good with families and has a culinary past that may help you with your catch.  Look forward to an outing next summer.
