Reel 'Em In Fishing Charters 

4.6/5 (19 reviews)
 41 Bruce Street North, The Blue Mountains, ON N0H 2P0, Canada

Reel ‘Em In Fishing Charters invites you to explore the bountiful open waters of Georgian Bay. Any breed of anglers will be able to enjoy a successful fishing trip – all you have to do is book a trip!

The season begins in spring and goes through fall. April through May is the best time to get a healthy dose of Lake Trout and Rainbow Trout, while mid-fall is ideal for those who want to concentrate on Rainbows only. And finally, summer months are all about Salmon.

The company is located just minutes from the Blue Mountain Village and Collingwood. The Thornbury Marina and the Beaver River are also near.

Enjoy the clean water, the thrill of fishing, and the fresh air. Get ready for a good fight with the bays monsters and come back to shore with your very own “catch of the day.”

All of that happens aboard a 21’ Starcraft aluminum fishing boat. Fully refurbished in 2017, the vessel comes powered by a 140 HP Evinrude engine. There is plenty of space for up to 6 anglers onboard – if you are in town and want to throw a party but want it to be special, this boat is ideal for you. It is fully rigged with everything from livewells, iceboxes, and top-notch electronics to a porta potty, a fighting chair, and a sleeping area. All aboard!

You will be provided with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Just bring your snacks and drinks with you!

3 Hour Trip (Evening) on May 26, 2025

I had the pleasure of fishing with Reel Em In fishing on Monday May 26. We hit perfect weather no wind no waves no rain. Don't let Dave's boat fool you it's safe and solid and equiped with everything needed for a comfortable trip. I'm a retired fishing guide myself so I know how difficult this job can be and Dave kept us busy and entertained the entire time PLUS put us on fish . We enjoyed the beautiful sunset across the bay and it was like we were in wilderness no other boats no distractions just Peace. Thanks Dave we are super satisfied got fish for the smoker and pictures forever Phillip, Alexis, Alex

Half Day on July 9, 2024

Water was choppy, but Dave allowed some of my party to go back to shore due to motion sickness. We immediately went back out and caught a 12 lb rainbow. Trolled some more and hooked a Lake trout that managed to get away. Awesome job Dave we really enjoyed the trip and enjoyed the meal the fish provided us. Thanks again.

4 Hour Trip (AM) on September 29, 2024

A true lover of fishing, Dan does the chatter because he really enjoys being out on the water and catching fish. Professional and down to earth. Our group of 4 caught 2 large Lake Trout in the afternoon. Fun times all around.
