Captain
Chris Bunda

Member since August 2021 Spring Lake, United States
Background
With a love for fishing that started as a small child, Captain Chris' passion for fishing grew into a life-long hobby. For the past 15 years, he has been tournament fishing up and down the coast of Lake Michigan. During the pandemic of 2020, he decided to follow his dream and open a charter business to provide the highest quality fishing charters.
Techniques
A typical trip will be spent trolling offshore in Lake Michigan aboard a nice Hardtop 31; Tiara Open and utilizing only the top-of-the-line electronics and fishing gear on the market. At 33' overall and with a 12' beam, the captain's vessel provides ultimate fishing comfort.
