    Excellent experience

    6 Hour Trip (PM) • 6 adults

    Captain Shane was a very knowledgeable and professional Captain. His equipment was well kept and professionally managed. He was willing to answer any questions that were asked in a helpful and informative way. he was very efficient with the time we had on the trip and every move he made was in a fast and efficient manner. He was willing to try out different types of tackle to get us on fish. 10/10 would recommend using this Captain again!! Great with any level of experience fisherman.

    Great Day with Salmon Chaser

    6 Hour Trip (AM) • 4 adults

    I can't say enough about the excellent experience we (4) had with Shane and "Salmon Chaser." The boat, and Captain Shane was a fantastic experience. We caught a ton of fish from Lake Trout to Salmon (Coho & King). I can't say enough about Captain Shane's professionalism and how well he found fish, manned the rods with skill and organization. Captain Shane was a master of his vessel and employed great skill when there was "...a fish on..." and how well everything flowed when we were in full catch mode. There were several times when we had two fish on the lines and he was masterful with his instructions and quick reaction time. Definitely will be calling Captain Shane again this year.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you Curt. Glad your group had a good time catching fish on the Salmon Chaser. Captain Shane

    Captain Shane took us out at the last minute for an afternoon trip after our morning trip we had booked somewhere else got canceled. He really saved the day and we appreciated it so much! We caught plenty of trout and can’t wait to book our spring trip with him so we can catch some salmon.

    Captain Shane answered the phone every time I called about our booking. Directions to where to met up, what to bring for our trip, and what to expect was on point. We caught our limit and left with bags of filets! Would definitely book again with Captain Shane!

    We took an afternoon charter, which usually has slower fishing. Captain Shane worked hard to keep us on fish and we ended up catching all we could handle! The captain was great with our kids ranging from 5-16 as well. I highly recommend this charter! We'll definitely be repeat customers!

    This was our first time salmon fishing and our whole family had a blast! After we booked, Captain Shane quickly contacted us and responded to any questions we had before the outing. Once we were out on the boat he was very busy getting lines out, answering questions, changing out lures to what seemed to be working, and grabbing rods for us when a fish was on. We would highly recommend Salmon Chaser Charters for your next fishing adventure.

    I had the opportunity to take my two sons out for their first charter fishing trip today and it didn't disappoint. Captain Shane got us on fish right away and we landed some nice King Salmon. We would highly recommend the Salmon Chaser for your next charter and look forward to returning. Thanks for making our first trip out memorable. John, Caleb, and Carson

    Got this trip last minute after our other captain cancelled our trip. Rough water with 3-5 foot waves was interesting but after we got to deep water, we killed it. Shane knows his stuff and I would highly recommend him as a guide.

    We had a great day of fishing with Captain Shane and the Salmon Chaser. We were in fish all morning while others struggled. Thanks for a great day with my kids.

What's biting with Salmon Chaser Charters in Kenosha

In November, check out Kenosha's Oak Creek area for fish that are on the move. If the lakes and harbors are covered in ice thick enough to fish from, don't hesitate to try out ice fishing.
