It all started at Capt. David Weil's grandfather's farm pond...within minutes he caught his first fish, a Largemouth Bass, and he was hooked! Since the early age of 6, Capt. David has developed and grown an extreme passion for the sport of fishing. He's been fishing the Great Lakes since his early childhood, and has had the pleasure of fishing and guiding on the Great Lakes, as well as many lakes throughout NW Ontario. He also has many hours of tournament experience fishing local tournaments, like Musky's Canada Belle river chapter opener and closer events, Big Boys Derby, Lasalle Walleye Classic and a few others. Capt. David is driven to ensure success every time he sets sail on the water, and we ensure you that you are in good hands!

    Once in a lifetime catch

    Lake St Clair Musky weekday • 2 adults

    We had an amazing experience, the captain was incredibly knowledgeable and his water craft was second to none. The boat is well equipped and within 30 minutes we had our first take on the trolled lures. The Musky fight hard and even though the fishing gear is perfectly balanced you will be given a run for your money! The captain worked hard re-adjusting the rigs due to weeds but somehow he managed to get us in the middle of the baitfish everytime. The final result was four fish at 48, 46.5, 42 & 41 inches. I can’t recommend this trip enough and it will take some beating. Thank you.

    Reported catch:
    Muskellunge (Musky)

    Excellent Walleye Fishingtrip!

    5 Hour Trip – Walleye (AM) • 4 adults

    Took some relatives for a fishing charter with Captain David. David was knowledgeable, proffessional, and took into account our needs. Contacting us and coordinating a change in fishing day when Lake Erie swells were not ideal. With him at the helm, we were able to get on the fish fast, and meet our limit within a few hours. Looking forward to a great fish fry between the Walleye and Stripped Bass we brought in.

    Reported catch:
    Walleye

    Thanks for the kind words, glad you guys enjoyed the trip! Enjoy the fish fry!

    Captain David was knowledgeable and put us on fish right away. Limited out with 6 Walleye apiece for the day. Also caught white perch, freshwater drum, and white bass. The boat was quite comfortable and roomy. I would recommend him without hesitation. He also has a boat docked at St. Clair Lake, which I hope to return and charter for Muskie and Bass Fishing.

    My son and his friend mowed lawns all Summer so they could save up to go on a fishing trip. After extensive research, they chose Mainstream Fishing Charters and we were so happy they did. Our experience was excellent. The captain provided excellent communication about our trip in the week before and was on time and ready to go when we got there. He was keen to share his years of experience and expertise with us and the boys. In the end, both boys caught a big Muskie - exactly what we were hoping for. We would definitely book with Mainstream again. Thanks, Captain David!
