    Awesome experience on Lake Erie

    6 Hours or Limit Walleye Trip • 2 adults

    My son and I flew in for a day and it was our first time on Lake Erie/fishing for walleye and it was absolutely incredible! Captain Mike knew exactly where to go and the lures to use! He makes it look easy, but I know it’s from his experience and expertise! We were immediately bringing in fish and filled our quota. When we returned to the dock he cleaned and packed the fish in our shipping cooler for us to take home on the plane. The entire experience was very professional and on a spacious, well maintained, boat that has everything needed to have fun fishing! Can’t wait to do it again. Thank you again Captain Mike!

    Half day trip with Captain Mike.

    6 Hours or Limit Walleye Trip • 2 adults • 1 child

    Trip started out amazingly, started out on the monsters first thing . Then my 9year old son started to get a little sea sick . Captain Mike save the rest of the day , moved us In to calmer waters and Noah perked right back up . And even in shallow waters Captain Mike put us right back on the fish . This will be a lifetime of memories for my son and I. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome, if your taking a son or daughter out for your trip , this is where you want to go . Mike show and explained everything and how and why everything he was doing . Great knowledgeable Captain, I won’t charter any where else . Thank you Gary

    Response from Captain

    Gary, I had a wonderful morning with the 2 of you, Noah was a trooper not many people come back from not feeling well! He did great and I am glad to have been a part of his 1st trip out on Lake Erie! Thanks for your business and I hope to see you again! Captain Mike
