Captain
Dennis Viers

Member since May 2017 Lorain, United States
Background
Dennis is a true local who has lived around the Lakes his whole life. Has been a teacher for over 35 years, and likes taking children on trips. During his teaching career he also owned a bait and tackle shop for 13 years, which he ran with his family. For 9 years, Capt. Dennis also hosted a radio show where he did a fishing report 3 times a day. It was during this time that he decided to become a captain and share his knowledge with others. The best part of the job is the people and watching them have fun. Captain holds a  record in catching 50 Steelhead in one day back in 1998. Which is still unbeaten and very unusual on Lake Erie.
Techniques
Trolling is our typical method of walleye fishing but the captain will drift fish on request.
