I started fishing when I was a youth. My dad got me into fishing. He was a great mentor who taught me how to handline and jig at a very young age. I enjoy being on the water and continually adapting to new fishing techniques to get more fish in the boat.

    awesome captain, amazing experience!

    4 Hour Trip – Walleye Trolling (PM) • 4 adults

    Absolutely awesome fishing charter! There were four of us, and Captain Eric made sure we had a great time from start to finish. We caught a ton of walleye, and everyone in our group had plenty of opportunities to reel in fish. What really impressed us was how hard Eric worked to keep us on the fish. If they moved, he moved. He kept chasing them down and putting us in the right spots so there was hardly any downtime. His knowledge, equipment, and experience were top-notch, and you could tell he knew exactly what he was doing. We spent the trip laughing, catching fish, and having an absolute blast. We came home with plenty of walleye and some great memories. If you’re looking for a charter with a captain who actually works to make sure you’re catching fish instead of just sitting around hoping they bite, Captain Eric is your guy. We’ll definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommend!

    Birthday Fishing Trip!

    4 Hour Trip – Multi-Species (PM) • 4 adults • 2 children

    Captain Eric was awesome! He made my family feel comfortable from the start. We chartered for our sons 6th birthday and the trip exceeded our expectations. We caught several 3+ lb small mouth bass and a drum! The weather was perfect and we all genuinely enjoyed ourselves. My husband, my mother, and our 6 & 7 year olds had an unforgettable trip! Captain Eric’s easy going nature and knowledge of the lake made our experience. We love to fish and learned some great tips. Thank you for having us and we cannot wait to come back one day! -The Crespo Fam

    Great Experience

    4 Hour Trip – Multi-Species (PM) • 4 adults

    Four of us spent a half-day on Lake St. Clair with Captain Eric, and we had a great time. Most in our group were pretty inexperienced fishermen, but Eric was patient and made sure to set up everyone for success. Eric was very friendly, knowledgeable, and polite, and what was particularly impressive was how he continually hunted down the best spots to catch fish while adapting our fishing techniques to the conditions. In all, we ended up catching a variety of different species, and we reeled in over a dozen good sized fish. Highly recommend!

    Reported catch:
    Walleye

    Had a great time!

    4 Hour Trip – Multi-Species (AM) • 4 adults

    My brothers and I took our dad out as a 70th birthday gift. Captain Eric made sure we had a great time. Went and caught a bunch of perch first jigging and my brother also got a walleye, then we moved and trolled awhile and caught some nice small mouth. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We definitely will be making plans for a walleye trip with him in spring.

    we caught every species I wanted AND MORE!!

    4 Hour Trip – Multi-Species (PM) • 3 adults

    Captain Eric is a very friendly, kmowledgable and easygoing guy. We loaded up and headed out right on time. When I booked the charter I told Eric we wanted to catch Small Mouth, Perch and Walleye. He explained that at this point in the season the Walleye have for the most part moved out of the area. We caught several very large Small Mouth, many Perch a few very nice ones AND 2 Walleye!! Great trip overall. We’ll be back in the Spring for more Walleye!!!

    Reported catch:
    Walleye
    Northern Pike
    Yellow Perch
