My wife, 7 year old daughter and I took a half day trip with CAPT John out of Buffalo Harbor.ย As we were putting in for the afternoon trip other boats were coming in from their morning trips and reported SLOW fishing - one boat said they caught one fish in 7-8 hours of fishing.ย
CAPT John was not deterred and within 5 minutes of getting to our first spot I hooked into a nice Sheepshead.ย While those are considered โtrashโ fish because they arenโt edible (too bony) they make for a fun catch because of their fight.
We continued to catch sheepshead in various different spots.ย Right at the end of the trip CAPT John moved us to one of his secret spots and we started catching mice smallmouth bass.ย On our last pass of the trip we doubled up - our daughter hooked and landed a 4-5 lb small mouth bass and my wife hooked and landed a 3-4 lb sheepshead.
In the end we caught well over a dozen fish and had a great day on the water with CAPT John!

My family and I had an enjoyable time fishing Lake Erie. Captain John was very accommodating to rearranging plans, and Captain Paul did a great job leading us to fish the moment our line hit the water. Everyone caught at least one fish! Paul was very friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely would do it again!
Great day on the water, lots of fish caught and the captain was helpful and fun!
I was looking to kill some time with my family on a beautiful day. What I got was the trip of a lifetime! Captain John was great with the kids and we all came away with memories we will never forget.
