About the trip

The Walleye bite in the eastern basin of Lake Erie is impressive any time of the day so you can be sure that the afternoon fishing action will be strong. All you need for this excursion is a valid fishing license, some snacks, and refreshments.

I've been hooked since I was 3 years old. I grew up fishing the Great Lakes with my dad and grandfather. I've had the dream of becoming a charter captain since I was about 12 years old. Now I own and operate Old Timer Charters.

Fun and educational trip!

VERIFIED

Captain Vince and his mate took a lot of time to teach us about the rigging as well as fishing on Lake Erie. They were super friendly. We caught our limit of walleye on a poor fishing time (sunny afternoon on a calm surface). We also landed fish bigger than the other charters at the time. The filleting was good. The fish tasted great. The Cptn and mate knew what they were doing We will definitely charter them again!
