We went out on an evening trip with showtime, and fishing was slow because the wind was up. We got a couple lake trout, and as a last ditch effort the captain put down lines for salmon. He stayed out over our booked time trying his best to get us a good fish. Right at the last moment we landed a beautiful 17Lb King salmon. We were overjoyed. Incredible experience and a very friendly and knowledgeable captain and first mate. Would recommend this crew to anyone.

Book well in advance. This boat and crew know how to fish! Wonderful personalities and really knowledgeable. We caught our limit of 10 fish in a couple hours. They have a relationship with Harrington’s who will cook the fish 3 different ways.

We had a great trip with Captain Johnny and Ben. They were both super nice and knowledgeable. We caught some great fish during the trip and had a great time. They were very patient with my kids and gave them excellent instruction so that the kids were able to reel in the fish on their own. The boat was very nice and sparklingly clean. We are looking forward to fishing with them again the next time we’re in town! Thanks for a great trip!

My son and I had a great time fishing with Captain Johnny. He and his first mate were very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. We caught 3 Salmon and 1 Lake Trout on our trip out this morning. The boat was very well equipped, spacious and clean. I will definitely be rebooking Showtime Charters in the future and would highly recommend.

I was concerned that my husband’s mobility issue would make it difficult to impossible to fish, but everything was perfect. He was given help if needed, and it was a great day for everyone. My husband spent a perfect day with our grandson who is stationed in Traverse City with the Coast Guard. It was a wonderful cherry time!!

Thank you guys, we had a great time and hope he can make it back out. Please encourage him to stay positive and come back. We WILL get him on the boat and catching fish again for years to come. It was a pleasure meeting the entire group and are grateful for your Grandson’s service everyday.
