Cherokee Lake Erie Charter

We were fishing for walleye in September which is pretty iffy. Captain Shannon did his best to make sure my 12 year old son didn't go home empty-handed. He and his first mate were so personable and made it a pleasant day on the water.

Great day on Lake Erie 

Capt. Shannon Rumer is very Professional and very Knowledgeable.

Fishing significantly slows down in January, and most boats are out of the water and under maintenance, preparing for the arrival of the new high season. Depending on the weather, you can do some ice fishing, as long as the ice is strong enough.

Charters will slowly start heading out onto the lake, but only if the ice has cleared. Walleye hang around the Western Basin year-round, so if you're willing to endure the low temperatures, you might be rewarded with this Lake Erie staple.

This is when Walleye start making their presence known, and all other fish become more active as well. March is usually the start of the season for Lakeside Marblehead fishing charters, and the bite will only get better from now on.

This is the perfect time to hook trophy-sized Walleye! Most charters will take you out to the early-season hotspots around Kelleys Island, Put-In-Bay Island, and the Bass Islands. In more good news, Rainbow Trout are also out there in good numbers.

The Western Basin is all about Walleye in May. This is also a good time to combine fishing action with a stop-off at one of the Western Basin's islands to soak up the sun. There's more and more Perch swimming around for your pleasure.

June is one of Lakeside Marblehead's most productive months, and for good reason – the trophy-size Walleye are just about everywhere, and Smallmouth Bass is common, too. Don't forget about slews of tasty Perch waiting to gulp down your bait.

The lake's inhabitants are most active during the hottest days of the year, so make the most of this opportunity! Trophy Walleye, top-notch Smallies, and solid Perch and Trout fishing will keep you busy at all times of the day. Whether you want one or all species, it's up to you.

It's all about a Yellow Perch extravaganza in August! These scrumptious fish are everywhere. Meanwhile, Walleye fishing remains hot. Weather conditions will dictate whether you fish the shallows or around the reefs and islands.

Both Yellow Perch and Smallmouth Bass fishing is excellent, and lunker Walleye will be waiting for you in the deeper waters around the Western Basin's islands. The weather is getting trickier to predict, so have your rain gear at hand.

It's getting colder on the water in the fall, but Yellow Perch fishing only gets hotter. The Walleye bite is still going strong as well. Once you've had your fill of action, head to land to enjoy the annual Lighthouse Festival.

Walleye and Yellow Perch fishing is excellent at the beginning of the month but tends to slow down as the waters gradually begin to cool. This is also the end of the charter season on Lake Erie, and by mid-November, most boats are out of the water.

As the season comes to an end, Walleye can still be found in the shallows of the Western Basin – if you're willing to battle the winter winds, that is. If the lake freezes towards the end of the month, you can enjoy some ice fishing.
