Captain
Michael Godleski

Member since March 2019 Conneaut, United States
Background
I started fishing in 1975 and it has been pretty much a lifelong passion. In the beginning, it was a hobby, but as time passed by, I found myself on the water more and more. After a while, I decided to fully commit to this sport I love, and I've been fishing Lake Erie and tributaries full-time since 1996. I always strive to put my experience to good use and show my clients a fun time.
Techniques
Much like the change of seasons, I love the different methods used to catch fish at different times of the year. Night jigging for Steelhead, fly fishing the tribs in the fall and winter, spring night Walleye or Lake Trout, summer offshore deepwater trolling, and finally fall nearshore Steelhead.
