Balls Deep Charters
If you dream of landing monster King Salmon, Lake Michigan is the water you should fish at. If you want to have a better chance of fulfilling that dream, fishing with Balls Deep Charters is the way to go!
Captain Chad Kozik runs trips on board his 36' Tiara boat. She's perfectly suited to the waters of the Great Lakes. Powered by twin Crusaders with 350 HP each, you'll be on your fish in no time. She has a full-head toilet on board, so you can remain comfortable even on longer trips. A kitchen and bed help you maintain your fishing focus by taking breaks between hook ups.
As one of the Great Lakes, Lake Michigan has excellent Salmon and Trout fishing. Chinook and Coho Salmon can be targeted as well as Brook and Lake Trout, Steelhead also. You'll head up to 15 miles away from the dock in pursuit of these prestigious predators. Trolling, jigging, and bottom fishing are the names of the game with Capt. Chad. He's very experienced with over 30yrs of experience and very keen on sharing that experience with everyone who steps on his boat.
There's no minimum age for kids, it's never too early to get hooked on angling. A first mate is on board, ready to assist you with anything you need as well as clean and fillet your catch when the day is done. And for all they do, tips are greatly appreciated.

Both the Captain and Jake were fabulous. First time doing this they helped my 2-21 year olds and my husband tremendously. I sat and observed. Would never go with anyone else. I was a little nervous heard alot of horror stories. Walked away with 10 salmon fish, after fileted it was over 60 pounds. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
We had an amazing day fishing on Lake Michigan! The captain and his mate were knowledgeable and friendly, and we caught a few King salmon and a trout. The boat was clean, the equipment was top-notch, and the whole trip was fun from start to finish. I highly recommend this charter and would definitely book again!
Everything about our experience with Balls Deep Charter was amazing! The Captain and his son were very knowledgeable and so fun and made our trip seamless. We ended up with almost 40 lbs of salmon we wanted to ship home to Utah. UPS was going to charge us $1000 to ship. The Captain graciously helped us out by freezing the fish and shipping it out a few days later and saved us over $800. We will definitely be back!
We had a blast. Took my dad and uncles for a 5 hour tour. the crew took great care of us.
Put us on fish two day in a row. Did everything possible to be successful on the water.

Captain Chad Kozik developed his passion for angling when he was just 5 years old; thanks to his dad and grandad who took him Walleye fishing. One thing led to another and now he has over two decades of fishing experience in the area around Lake Michigan. Capt. Chad and his crew have been competing professionally since 2005 and can boast 16 first place finishes and multiple top-10 placements. There are many more accolades they've won, best left to the man himself to explain them!
