Full day trip for walleye

8 Hour dock to dock Trip – Walleye5 adults

Our family had a great time! Myself a friend my 3 college kids and my 90 year old Dad. We caught 27 good size walleye, in addition to this we had some walleye that were under 15 inches, we had to throw them back. also sheepshead and white bass got thrown back and about 8 walleye that got away (we hooked them but they escaped) so we kept busy for the 6 hours on beautiful Lake Erie. The weather was terrific (sunny and small waves) which helps immensely. Capt. Gary worked very hard reestablishing fishing pole lines, not easy trying to keep 12 rods in the water! Thanks again, Joe Miller.

Response from Captain

Thank you Mr Miller for the good review it is very much appreciated. We had a blast on our end also it was a pleasure to fish with the entire group. Enjoy your catch. When your son gets a chance have him send his pics to my phone. Hope to hear from you in the future, Capt Gary

    Great Captain, Great Trip

    5 Hour Trip – Perch • 6 adults • 2 children

    Captain Gary was truly great. His communication beforehand was professional and appreciated. I've fished this way before but my family has not. He was beyond polite and courteous to us all during the trip. Personable and easy to talk to. Got us out to good spots where we got some catches despite the lake having an overall slow weekend for it. We know who we will call next time we're here!

    Response from Captain

    Mr Deleon, I truly appreciate your review. I was absolutely impressed with your family. Your two sons 4 and 5 years old were well behaved and reeled in a few. Unfortunately the seasickness bug got the best of a few of them. We made a day of it, thank you again for fishing with me. Captain Gary

    Best Family Fishing Trip

    8 Hour dock to dock Trip – Walleye • 5 adults • 3 children

    We had the best time fishing!! The kids (8,13,17) have never done anything like this before and he had such patience with teaching them how to do it all from holding the rod to the multi line system he had. He went far out there to ensure we maxed out our limit of walleye and he sure succeeded! Booking our next trip with him will for sure be happening ! Thank You so much!

    Response from Captain

    To the Phillips family, it was my pleasure to fish you all. My day was easier because of you. From learning the system to setting lines you did it all with precision. I was most impressed by how the children and parents interacted with each other. Not one of you stood back and just watched. Your hardwork paid big divedends with a nice limit of 36 fish which included the captains limit. Thank you for trusting me with your day out on lake erie. Captain Gary

    "Ode to Captain Gary"

    8 Hour dock to dock Trip – Walleye • 6 adults

    On Erie’s waves that roll and gleam, We chased the fish, we lived the dream. With Captain Gary at the helm so true, No better guide the lake could view. His boat was steady, swift, and clean, The finest ride we’ve ever seen. Lines were cast, the reels did sing, And soon we felt that walleyed zing! Thirty-six we hauled with cheer, The very best catch of the year. From dawn’s first light to sunset’s glow, Gary made that big lake flow. If you seek thrills, some fish, and fun, Book Gary’s boat — he’s number one! Lake Erie’s king, both kind and wise, With him, the limit’s no surprise.
