Spring fishing for Walleye is just around the corner. Walleye will be running Sandusky River in early April and will be returning to Bay and lake in early May. Book your trip now for May when the nice size walleye are still in the Bay. Tight Lines Captain Bob

Bob was a fantastic guide. He made the trip enjoyable, successful and safe. I have not been fishing in a very long time and Bob gave me a quick refresher and tips on lake fishing. I would highly recommend Wild Irish Rose to anyone; experienced and inexperianced fisherman.

Captain Bob and Dave seemed liked they had as much fun as us. My family and I this was our first charter. Caught fish and had a good time. We are planning to save our money and come back next year.
