  Experienced and relaxing crew; Overall fantastic experience

  5 Hour Trip (11AM) on June 19, 2026 • 4 adults

  This was our first time charter fishing on Lake Michigan and we had an absolute blast. Captain Stuart got us out early to avoid inclement weather and kept the boat moving smoothly throughout. His daughter Maddi operated as the deck hand and has clearly been fishing her entire life. She was extremely knowledgeable about the fish we were catching, their tendencies and trends of what worked best to boost our chances for a successful trip. She was also acutely aware of the rods and helped us get nearly every fish we hooked. She then filleted and bagged everything we caught, cleaned the deck and reset the boat with time to spare all before we even made it back to shore. She was a beast! They both operated as a fantastic team and were a pleasure to be on the boat with for the 5+ hours we got. I would absolutely recommend going with them for your fishing trip!

  Great Experience!

  5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 7, 2026 • 6 adults

  Had a great time with Capt Stuart & First Mate Maddie! Ended up catching 15 fish during our 5hr AM excursion. Maddie was a rockstar at setting rods, landing fish, and explaining the fishing process during the trip. When we were finished she had the whole catch cleaned and bagged before we got back to the marina. 5-star experience!

  Great Experience

  6 Hour Trip (AM) on June 14, 2026 • 5 adults

  Fun family experience! My husband and our children ages 20, 19, & 16 signed up for the 6-hour charter. Captain Stuart and his daughter and mate Maddie, were very knowledgeable, made you feel welcome and were very easy going and good natured. Caught several nice fish! Highly recommend and looking forward to going out with them again some day!

  Plenty of fish, even before sunrise!

  5 Hour Trip (AM) on July 30, 2026 • 2 adults

  We had a great morning on the lake with Captain Stewart and Firstmate Miley! By about 4:30 AM, we’d already started filling the cooler with king salmon! Watching the sunrise was a nice bonus too. We definitely recommend this charter!
