My son and I have been going to Vermillion every year since he was born but this time our 15 year old kid wanted to do something different. A fishing Charter! So we look at reviews, prices and locations and found Captain Sloppy Joe. It turned out to be a memorable Event. There was no rest on the boat! The captain had us catching fish through the 4 plus hours on the boat. We caught 11 legal sized Walleye(one short of the Max) and a perch. We caught many more fish but they were here too small(walleye)โyou donโt eat them(huge sheephead) and a few big Catfish. So we were always reeling in something. The trip was really amazing. The captain did so much work to make our trip enjoyable. I donโt think I even got my hands dirty. We had 6 poles at various depths on the charter so there was really no down time. There was also something to do or something to reel in! The captain took us to some jackpot areas and away from other boats so he certainly knew were to go. He was also super fun/had a great personality and really interacted with us. He gave us some great pointers, give us some history and facts about Vermillion and fishing that I had no idea about. I booked this trip mainly due to the reviews and hopefully this review will give you confidence to book with Captain Sloppy Joe! The boat is small enough that if it hits wavesโฆ:you will feel it. Outside thatโฆreally no issue

Thanks for taking the time to write a review.ย I enjoyed fishing with you and your son.ย Take care.
Joe put us on the fish. It was a bit bumpy at first so he took us to calmer waters. Talked about strategy and how he locates the fish. My boys had a good time too. Would definitely book with him again.
Thanks for the kudos.ย Take care.ย You have a very nice family.
We had a great fishing trip. Captain Joe is very knowledgeable and experienced in this fishing area.ย We caught a total of 15 walleye excluding those small ones that we released.ย The largest one we got weighed 5 lbs 6 oz!
Thanks for the kudos !ย I enjoyed fishing with you and your family!ย Your boys did a great job cranking and spanking!
Joe got us on top of Walleye as we caught just below our limit within 4 hrs.ย He provided us a very personable, fun, and friendly trip.ย This is your guy.
Thanks for the kudos, Dan !ย I enjoyed fishing with you guysโฆ
