Captain Mike is the man. He joked with us before we left that Erie is the Walleye fishing capital of the world, only it was no joke. We didn’t have our lines in the water long before my two brothers and I we’re pulling them in left and right while Mike was constantly resetting the lines and yelling “Fish On” seemingly seconds after we had just got the last one in the boat. While you can never guarantee a successful fishing trip, Mike definitely put us in the best possible... More

If there is one thing to say, it is that Mike knows where the fish are. We were able to catch our limit in no time. It was a good thing, because my wife was getting pretty sick due to the large waves on the day we went. It was much appreciated the care that was taken for her. Every attempt was made to make her comfortable and without that the trip could have been a complete disaster.

Beautiful sunrise on the water this morning as the lines were being set out.  Then the real fun started and never stopped till we had our limit. Non stop action and Capt Mike and mate Alec worked their butts off.  Our 8-yr old rookie stole the show catching the first and biggest walleye of the day!  We’ll be back when the freezers empty!

Hookin’ Hogs had the nicest boat we have seen on the Great Lakes. The captain was very knowledgeable and made sure we all had a great time on the water. From the time we set lines in until we limited out, we had constant action the whole trip. Good music, good fishing, and good weather, what else can you ask for!
