Great trip with a great Captain

6 Hour Trip – Lake Champlain4 adults

The captain was great to work with and kept us on the fish even the fish were being tight lipped one of us caught a 12 pounder and 9 pounder lake trout and we caught several more it was a great trip and if or when we return this is the captain I would use.

    Captain Will delivers

    6 Hour Trip – Lake Champlain • 3 adults

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Day on the Water with Captain Will Nolan! If you are looking for a top-tier charter experience, book with Captain Will Nolan without hesitation. This was easily one of the absolute best fishing trips we have ever taken! From the moment we pushed off, Captain Will had us dialed in and on the fish immediately. His knowledge of the water, top-notch gear, and welcoming energy made the entire trip seamless and fun for everyone on board—including our pup! We ended up hauling in 10 gorgeous fish averaging around 8 pounds each. Reeling in monster after monster kept the excitement high all morning long. To top off an already stellar day, Captain Will expertly fileted the entire catch for us at the end, so we went home with coolers packed with fresh fillets ready for the kitchen. Incredible action, great company, and five-star hospitality. We cannot recommend Captain Will highly enough and will definitely be booking with him again! But only if Mr. Fen is part of the crew (Mr. Fen is captain Nolan's adorable dachshund)

    Half day, evening

    6 Hour Trip – Lake Champlain

    My sons and I had an amazing day. Capt. Will put us on fish all day long. A big bonus was seeing some beautiful views from the boat as he explained parts of the the surrounding area and filled us with knowledge. After fishing for trout all my life I was able to complete the chase, lake trout! He will not disappoint, trust Capt. Will, thanks again

    Swilly will get you on the fish

    If you want to catch some nice fish Will is the guy to see. He is one of the best charter captains on Lake Champlain. He knows the lake and the target fish well and consistently puts nice fish in the boat. If you are looking to book a fishing charter in Lake Champlain I would highly recommend him! You won’t be disappointed
