We had an amazing time fishing with Captain Rob that exceeded our expectations! Captain Rob and his First Mate were very knowledgeable, friendly and highly experienced. Our three boys had a blast with 14 total fish caught and we made memories that will last a lifetime. Our next trip to Milwaukee we will be booking again with Manhardt Charters!

This trip was a gift for our nephew. He had a great time. One fish gave him a fight and he was thrilled to have finally caught it. He learned a lot about fishing from a moving boat, line tension and gave directions on how to reel in the fighting fish. Per our nephew “Great guy. 5 stars. Would go fishing with him again!”

I would greatly recommend Manhardt Charters! Caption Rob is a true “Water Rat”. I mean that in the most respectful way. He lives the Big Lake. He’s a very personable guy with a very nice boat. You can’t go wrong with Captain Rob.

Capt Rob Manhardt is a very knowledgeable mariner and fishing guide, highly recommend him, and thats coming from someone who has fished Salmon, Halibut etc in Alaska and British Columbia for over 14 years..  Rob knows his area and knows where the fish are, if you don’t get any fish it’s not because of capt Rob or his boat.  You should look no further when looking for a great fishing experience on Lake Michigan
