Great Fishing Trip with Capt. John and His Awesome Mate!

4 person 5hr. AM Trip4 adults

Capt. John and his First Mate were a blast to fish with! We had an amazing time out on the water. Our group included a couple of first-timers, and Capt. John was incredibly patient—even after we lost a few catches early on. We ended up maxing out and even had to release the last catch! I would definitely recommend Capt. John and his charter service. Can’t wait to go out again!

    Great fishing/multipe species

    3 person 5hr. AM Weekend Trip • 4 adults • 1 child

    Asked Captain John to target Kings on this trip, he had a plan based on some intel he received and we put plenty of nice Kings in the cooler. Caught a few steelhead, coho and a brown trout to top it off. My buddy was up from GA and is ready to return for another trip. My other buddy had his 10yr old with him, and First Mate Radu and Captain John were very patient with him for his first Lake Michigan trip. Highly recommend this boat and Captain out of Wuakegan!

    Great Day on Lake Michigan!

    5 person 5hr. AM Trip • 6 adults

    Had a great day on the water! We caught 13 fish, including 4 really nice ones. Captain John was great, worked hard to keep us on the fish, and made sure we had a good time. Would definitely recommend Hook’d On Fishing Charters and would book with them again!

    Captain John and his first mate were excellent. They really worked hard to make sure we had a great experience. We’d never caught fish like that before. If youre looking for this type of experience, book this crew!

    Greatest Charter experience ever

    3 person 5hr. AM Weekend Trip • 3 adults

    Captain John knows what he is doing on those waters, we fished in places all the other boats werent and limited out on very large fish, all fish we were tageting that day.

    Response from Captain

    Cameron, Thank you so much for the incredible review! It was a pleasure having you aboard, and we’re thrilled to hear you, your father, and father-in-law had such a memorable trip. We take a lot of pride in staying on the fish. Seeing everyone limit out on the fish we were targeting is always rewarding, but having a great group on the boat makes it even better. Thank you for trusting us with your day on the water and for taking the time to share your experience. We truly appreciate your support and hope to have you back aboard soon. We’ll be ready to help you make even more great memories—and maybe land an even bigger one next time! Tight lines, Captain John 🎣

    Response from Captain

    Thomas, Thank you for the awesome review! We had a great time fishing with you and are happy to hear you enjoyed the day as much as we did. Days with great weather, good company, and a cooler full of fish are hard to beat. We truly appreciate you spending your day on the water with us and taking the time to share your experience. Hopefully this was just the first of many trips together, and we’ll have another opportunity to help you fill the cooler again soon! Thanks again, and we’ll save a spot on the boat for you.
