Captain Paul Snyder has been fishing Lake Erie his whole life. He loves to go to tournaments, especially for Walleye, Steelhead, and Lake Trout. One of his proudest achievements if winning a 2-day Pro-Am Tournament for Walleye and Steelhead. You can expect his son, Ryan, to be the first mate on board. These guys work great together and will make sure you have an unforgettable day.

    Wonderful trip!

    6 Hour Afternoon Trip (5 PERSONS) • 5 adults • 3 children

    We went out with Captain Paul for a fishing trip to catch walleye! We had 3 kids with us ranging from 8-13. Captain Paul was very attentive and helpful. We caught 30 fish and had a wonderful time. Two people with us did get sea sick, but we laugh about it now! Would recommend this fishing charter. 10 out of 10!

    Reported catch:
