We went out with Captain Gabe for an evening charter and took my 9 year old son, my 80 year old grandfather, my father and my wife. Gabe worked nonstop from the moment we left the dock and until we made it back home. Though we didn’t get into a bunch of fish, Captain Gave worked non-stop rigging poles, changing lures, changing different troll lines and different locations. Once we did hook up with a fish, he worked to make sure we landed them. I would not hesitate again to book Captain Gabe for another salmon fishing adventure.

My 13-year old son and I had our best fishing experience ever, thanks to Captain Gabe. He is incredibly knowledgeable and well-equipped. We ended up catching our limit (10 fish!), and the experience provided a lifetime of memories. My son was so excited, as he brought in the biggest fish of the day (a Chinook salmon). Afterwards, when we returned to the dock, Gabe did a superb job of cleaning the fish and filleting the pieces for us. I more than highly recommend him, for anyone who wants a first-class fishing trip!

Never have I ever written a review. Good or bad. But Gabe and Nick (1st Mate) were absolutely incredible. We had a 0500 Charter, Gabe and Nick were ready and waiting for us. His boat was super easy to find, once he stopped using the dreaded North, South, East and West directions!! “Left at the dumpster.” Better than any GPS. His boat was clean and well equipped. Myself, husband, son and Grandson were the fishermen. We caught a ton of fish, in our opinion. Both Gabe and Nick said that it was a “slow day”. We were thrilled with our catch. Bad weather was rolling in, which Gabe was monitoring and well aware of. Got us all back in one piece. Was it expensive? Yep. But worth every penny and then some. Almost three weeks later, we are still talking about what a great day it was. Gabe and Nick both played such an important part in making it so enjoyable and memorable. We would all recommend Elsie Charters. Thanks Guys!! We appreciate all of your hard work and especially helping us make some beautiful memories.

We had an incredible time on our recent fishing trip in Manistee with Elise K Charters. From start to finish, the experience was professional, fun, and memorable. The crew was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone was comfortable and involved.
The boat was clean and well-equipped, and the captain clearly knew where to find the fish! We caught plenty and had a lot of laughs along the way. The entire trip was smooth, well-organized, and a great way to enjoy a day on the water.
This was one of the highlights of our year, and we’ve already decided we’ll be booking again with Elise K Charters for our annual fishing trip next year. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch charter experience on Lake Michigan!
