Captain
Dan Korzenski

Member since March 2018 Dunkirk, United States
Background
I grew up on the shores of Lake Erie in Dunkirk, NY. Fishing, hunting, and everything outdoors is what me and my son do! So after recreational fishing for many, many years, the charter business was our next natural step. Having grown up in these parts, we are pretty in tune with what the fishery is doing all year long. We run one of, if not the biggest, charter boats out of dunkirk.
Techniques
For the most part we are trolling out in the deeper waters! In the deep water we use spoons, and stick baits that are ran on a controlled setup of down riggers, dipsey rods, and planer boards.

Half Day Trip - CAPT Dan

VERIFIED   Half Day Trip (AM) on August 18, 2021
Canโ€™t blame the weather or lack of fish on the captain. The captain acted as if he was bored, didnโ€™t want to be there....
Paul R. does not recommend Hooked-up Sportfishing
