Capt. Eric Long has over 20 years of experience in the Great Lakes. He's very friendly and loves to see his guests having a great time. While fishing the Detroit River for Walleyes and Lake St. Clair for Muskies are his mainstays, Capt. Eric is no stranger to Saginaw Bay Walleye fishing in the middle of summer, or trolling Lake Michigan for Salmon in late summer. In 2017, he and his team won first place at the Scotty King of Kings tournament at Lake Ontario.

    Fantastic charter experience!

    Walleye Trip • 4 adults

    Captain Eric was amazing. Found the fish and kept us on them until we quickly limited…kept us fishing even after that. Professional, immaculate boat and gear. Top notch trip!
