  Amazing first walleye trip!

  3/4 Day Trip on July 10, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

  We came to Buffalo from California for a few nights with the goal of getting out on Lake Erie and finding some walleye. We found Vinny and we’re so happy we did. He kept us informed of the forecast and adjusted our launch time so we had perfect conditions. He and first mate Corey were wonderful out on the lake, setting us up for success and then teaching my son how to do it all himself. And the walleye, well they showed up too! within minutes of setting the lines we had one, and we didn’t stop until we had out limit. Vinny and Corey fileted them all back on land so we could fry them up. Delicious! I will be recommending Vinny and Big V to anyone looking for fun on the water in Buffalo. A trip we’ll never forget!

  We had SO much fun! Vinny and his first mate were so personable and enjoyable. They were incredibly helpful without being overly hand holding and all in all just great people to be around! My almost 9 year old son was with us and he was able to catch his limit with ease. We will be looking into booking more charters with them specifically!! All of our limits caught and many good meals to come!

  Wall to wall walleye

  3/4 Day Trip on June 25, 2026 • 2 adults

  Had a great time.first walleye my daughter ever caught tipped the scales at 7lbs. Great way to begin walleye fishing. captain Vinny stayed away from all the boats and knew where to go. Had first fish on 10 minutes after we started trolling. the boat was stocked and clean and ready to go on time, planning a fall salmon charter with him.good job captain Vinny!

  Great trip in windy weather.

  3/4 Day Trip on June 30, 2026 • 4 adults

  Captain Vinny was great, it was windy that morning but he still was willing to take us out. He drove through some wavy water to get us out where he wanted. We all took turns catching fish and he taught us a lot on how to recognize a bite and how to handle reeling in a fish. A great captain and teacher. We will definitely use him again!!

  It was nice that the Lake cooperated with good weather. Glad to get the two young men their first walleyes and a 18 fish limit to take home
