I've been fishing and guiding on Lake Erie for over 2 decades. Officially started Chagrin Valley Charters after my recent retirement to share the beauty of Lake Erie and its great fishing opportunities with my customers. Purchased the fishing vessel Carol Ann in 2010 and invested in the latest equipment and upgrades for each crew's safety and comfort. Fishing Lake Erie is my passion along with developing a hands-on experience for my customers. I am fully insured, documented with USCG as Master Captain, and 1st Aid/CPR certified every 2 years.

    Afternoon Trip with Capt. Nick

    4 Hour Trip (PM) (4 person max)6 adults

    Booked this trip as a surprise for my father’s birthday. He and several friends had a great time fishing for walleye out on Lake Erie. Capt. Nick was friendly, professional, and the boat was beautiful. Father really enjoyed the trip. He mentioned Capt. Nick even stayed out in the water a bit longer than scheduled and had fish cleaning service waiting upon their return to the dock. Father was so impressed he asked me where I found this trip, no doubt he will be telling everyone he knows about it…and not just fish stories! Highly recommend Chagrin Valley Charters.

    Dedication

    8 Hour Trip (AM)-Trolling2 adults

    We left the dock on a beautiful morning in calm seas. Later that day the water got very choppy. Captain Nick was not phased and he was dedicated to us catching our limit. He made it easy in rough waters and put us on the fish. Great experience on the water. He also handled the cleaning of the catch and the shipping back to Chattanooga. Firs class experience.

    Perfect Day

    Evening Trip 1 - 3 people Fall Braw

    We had an absolutely perfect day on the lake with Captain Nick. We were super impressed with everything he had set up. We caught 24 walleye, got our max & had a lot of good laughs along the way. Honestly one of those experiences I’ll probably never forget. I’m coming back next year for more fish!

    Reported catch:

    Evening Trip 1 - 3 people Fall Braw

    We had a great trip and caught our limit! Definitely would go with captain nick again! Other fishermen we talked to that were out that night and didnt catch nearly the amount or the size of fish we did! Captain nick knows how to find the fish!

    Response from Captain

    Thank you Samm and Zach! Was a great time doing the nite bite and fishing in both the Walleye Slam and Fall Brawl. Well done and hope you enjoy those filets!

What's biting with Chagrin Valley Charters – Lakeside Marblehead in Lakeside Marblehead

Both Yellow Perch and Smallmouth Bass fishing is excellent, and lunker Walleye will be waiting for you in the deeper waters around the Western Basin's islands. The weather is getting trickier to predict, so have your rain gear at hand.
