Windrift Sport Fishing
Step aboard the Windrift and experience the best fishing Saginaw Bay has to offer. Based out of Linwood, Michigan, Windrift Sport Fishing is in a prime location on Lake Huron's popular bay. Captain Douglas McQueen will be your guide on these waters. An avid angler throughout his life, he's been a certified captain since 1980. With decades of experience fishing the Great Lakes, there's nobody better to show you what fishing is all about here.
You'll drift along the bay aboard a 30' Sea Ray cruiser, powered by twin 340 HP Mercury engines. Restored in 2016 to modern standards, she's built for your comfort. Fitted with a kitchen, bed, and toilet, you're in for a smooth ride on board. She's also a vessel built for serious fishing. A livewell and outriggers are fitted on board, including space to set up to 16 trolling lines, so you'll have the advantage when trying to lure the bite.
It's all about the Perch on these waters. The largest of the family, Walleye, is targeted throughout the season, with Yellow Perch showing up from August to September. The bigger species are a match for any angler and you'll have to be on your A-game to keep these beauties on the end of your line all the way to the boat. Spring into action when you hear the reels screech, and use all of your strength to pull the fish in.
Capt. Douglas will do everything he can to get you on the fish, contacting other captains if necessary. At the end of the day, his first mate will clean and prepare your catch to take home. These fish are delicious, and so you're in for a real treat when you fry it up later that night. Just make sure to bring a cooler to keep the fish fresh when on board. Come and experience Great Lakes fishing, Windrift Sport Fishing is calling you aboard!
Please note that there's a legal limit of how many fish you can catch, and trips may end earlier than planned if you hit the number.
Capt. Douglas accepts credit card payments from Visa, Mastercard, and Discover.

Capt Doug and Ken made the outing a great experience. We were a party of 5 with two dads and 3 teenage sons. Unlike previous charters we have taken Capt Doug not only knew where the bite was he wasn't afraid to ensure we were the first boat set up in the area! Equipment and tackle were high quality and Ken got everyone going with ease....even "chicken wing"! Would highly recommend "Windrift" to future anglers hoping to experience Walleye fishing at its finest!

It was a great trip with a good group. We did have fish comminging most of the trip just a all around fun trip. We had fun with the boys they are life long sportmen.

Here is a balanced and helpful review you can post: ## Great Day on the Water with Wind Drift Charters! **Rating:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5) We had a solid day out with Wind Drift Charters! Despite the elements fighting against us, the crew worked incredibly hard to make sure we had a successful trip. ### The Good: * **The Catch:** We ended up bringing home **18 walleye**! We easily had several more on the hook that unfortunately got off right at the boat, so the action was definitely there. * **The Crew:** The first mate was absolutely fantastic—attentive, quick, and kept things moving. The captain was highly professional, friendly, and clearly knew where the fish were hiding. ### The Not-So-Good: * **Weather & Scheduling:** The only real downsides to the experience were some scheduling issues leading up to the trip and some rough weather on the day of. Mother Nature didn't want to cooperate, which made things a bit challenging. **Final Verdict:** Even with the scheduling hiccups and choppy weather, the crew's professionalism and the excellent catch rate made this a great charter. I’d definitely fish with Wind Drift again!

Yes the weather was definitely against us. The fish was picking at the baits and in the end we lost some fish. The guys was fun and a good group to fish with. Hope to have you on the Windrift Charter’s again soon.
Despite less than perfect conditions and changing weather, Captain Doug and First Mate Ken found the fish and techniques needed to fill the cooler with several very nice fish. The were both very knowledgeable, friendly and GREAT with the kids. I will be recommending Windrift to all my fishing friends.

What a fun day with the kids. They was very good on the reels.
Both the captain and the 1st mate were so accommodating and helped all of us have a great experience on a hot day when the fish were not biting. They worked their tails off to find the right spot and the right bait. We all were able to catch at least 4 fish each and even the ones we did not keep were so fun to catch. We ended up catching 18 good sized Walleye and the best part is they cleaned and bagged them for us.These are very experienced fishermen and they are so kind and patient. I will very easily book this again when I'm in the area. I highly recommend!!

It was a fun day and yes it was hot. We had lots of fish on but didn’t get to the net. The young girls got there first while I each and was having a great time. Hope they liked them when they cooked them. I look forward to fishing again with you.

This was our third year in a row with Captain Doug and Ken. They are very friendly and know their business. We caught are limits and we had so much fun. We will be coming back next year again.

Brian it was a lot of fun. i enjoy going out with you your wife and son what a great time with friends.
