When I was 3 years old my Dad took me on the lake fishing for Perch. I have lived in Kenosha ,WI all my life, never more than a mile from the lake. I've seen many changes to the lakefront from a commercial/ industrial environment to a recreational / tourist friendly / entertainment location. I don't know of many days when I'm not down by the lake. Fishing over the years has become an addiction, a way of life for me. I worked construction for over 30 years. It was a tough way to make a living, but it made it possible to obtain a boat and follow my life's goal of becoming a Charter Captain. It is more satisfying for to me watch a customer catch the fish that he has been wanting to catch than for me to bring it in myself. Sometimes a fish gets off the line, but we will get another one! My main goal on the boat is to make sure everyone has a good time and it is a positive experience. We catch a lot of fish! But, that doesn't matter if it's not a great experience for everyone on the boat.

    Believe the comments on Captain Tim and Finquest

    5 Hour Trip – Weekdays (AM) MAX 2 • 2 adults

    Captain Tim was right on time and met us at 4 a.m. on the dot, and as soon as we got there, we took off in the boat fishing. The fishing that he had was excellent. We caught our limit very quickly and finished our morning tour after starting at 4 a.m. We were completed by 7:30. It was supposed to be a five-hour trip, so we were well within that timeframe and catching our limit and getting back to shore early. Captain Tim is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He’s been doing these for this charter for some 27 years, and it shows. We immediately caught our first fish as soon as we put the lines down within 10 minutes. We got our first fish, and they just kept coming and coming and coming, so when I read in the reviews of Finquest and Captain Tim, they said, “Oh, we’ll catch fish.” “We caught fish,” and you know you’re always kind of hesitant on that. I’ll tell you what, it’s absolutely true. We caught fish, and you will too, and I think you’ll be very pleased if you choose him. Good luck to you. 

    Reported catch:
    Rainbow Trout (Steelhead)
    Coho Salmon
    Response from Captain

    Thank you for coming on my boat. The weather and the fish cooperated, sometimes that's hard to beat. Good job on the rods. Hope to see you again Capt. Tim

    Hook Up!

    6 Hour Trip 12pm 1-6 guest • 3 adults

    My sons and I had a fantastic day of fishing with Capt. Tim. He definitely knows how to get you on fish! He was super attentive and had all the gear and more! He put out all sorts of lure combinations and the three of us had a really productive afternoon bite. 16 fish hooked up, 14 landed. Coho, King, Lake trout and Rainbows. He fileted the fish on the trip back and we came home with about 25+ lbs of delicious filets. It was a great charter and highly recommend him.

    Reported catch:
    Salmon
    Rainbow Trout (Steelhead)
    Lake Trout

    August fishing trip

    6 Hour Trip 5am 1-6 guests • 3 adults

    Tim did everything possible to make our fishing trip a huge success. We went out about 13 miles and caught our limit of coho and king salmon. He filleted the fish on the way back and we left with quite a haul. He’s a great captain and works hard for his clients.

What's biting with Finquest Sportfishing 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.
