Signature Charters offers Walleye fishing trips on Lake Erie. Run and operated by Captain Mitch Shipman, his trips depart from Geneva, Ohio. If you are looking for some fine angling with a tournament-winning captain, Signature Charters is your best choice!

Hop aboard his 23’ Ranger 622FS Pro which comes powered by a 400 HP Mercury engine. Perfect for up to 3 anglers, this vessel is equipped with autopilot, Lowrance electronics, marine radio, and top-notch safety equipment. There’s also an ice-box on board to keep the catch fresh.

Capt. Mitch shows you the best fishing Lake Erie has to offer! The Walleye season reaches its peak in June and goes on strong through to September. You’ll chase this elusive fish in the central basin, in the waters flowing between Geneva and Conneaut.

You’ll be able to sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride to the fishing grounds. Capt. Mitch will set up all of your lines and run the rods or get you involved in all aspects whichever you prefer.  He’s also a great teacher and uses his vast knowledge and 30+ years of experience of the local ecosystem to select the best methods to help you catch a cooler full of Walleye.

All trips come inclusive with all the necessary equipment you need to make an outstanding catch possible. You will be provided with rods, reels, tackle, and bait. The only things you need to bring is a fishing license, food, and drinks.  Fish cleaning is available at an additional charge.

With Signature Charters, fishing is always better from your side of the lake!

Outstanding fishing trip with my nephew! CPT. Mitch knew the lake and where to fish. His attention to detail was evident. We caught our limit and had a great time on the water. Great memories made. Laughing...a side bar...the fish were dinner that night and the ladies were happy. What more can you say! We will book again with Signature Charters!
