Sunrise King Salmon and Lake Trout with Captain Chris

5 Hour Trip PM3 adults

The trolling experience with Captain Chris was exceptional. My two college aged sons and I came in from New Jersey on a trip to the Lake Michigan area with no experience with this type of fishing. We started in the dark, caught the sunrise, and then 11 salmon and trout. Chris was knowledgeable, patient, enthusiastic, meticulous, and constantly working his lines, bait, and location to help us catch fish; a master of technique and technology. He then cleaned and filleted the fish with advice for how to take them on the plane back home. The boys and I thank you Chris for an unforgettable experience. (No one paid me to write this!)

    Great time, great crew!

    5 Hour Trip PM • 6 adults • 2 children

    Day started out kind of iffy, weather was looking grim. But Chris kept an eye on the weather, and after a slightly delayed start, skies cleared, and it was a beautiful day. Chris and Jeff are wonderful hosts, very knowledgable, and great company. Their presence alone made for a great time. We caught our fill of Lakers, Coho and Kings. We went home a little early because we caught enough and didn't want to kill any more fish. After we got back to our place, we cooked up a great lake trout dinner based on a recipe from Chris and Jeff. Wonderful day all around. And we left some fish for the rest of you!

    Wonderful Experience!

    5 Hour Trip PM • 5 adults

    I want to thank Chris and Jeff for giving our group a wonderful experience for fishing before the end of the season. We were able to catch more than enough fish for everyone! I would 10/10 recommend going again on a trip with these guys. They were very friendly, made us comfortable on the boat and teached us a lot of pointers on fishing. Thank you again for the wonderful trip! Hope to see you guys again!

    Great Captain, boat and fishing trip!

    7 Hour Trip AM • 4 adults

    We booked the 7-hour morning charter and had a great time! The bite started off a little slow, but Captain Chris never stopped working to keep us on fish. His knowledge and persistence paid off—we ended up limiting out! The boat was clean, organized, and very well maintained, From start to finish, everything was professional and well run. Zero complaints. If you’re looking for a captain who works hard and knows how to find fish, I highly recommend booking with Captain Chris. We’ll definitely be back! 🎣

    Best Father’s Day Gift

    5 Hour Trip PM • 4 adults

    My brothers and I reserved this charter to take our dad for Father’s Day weekend. We went in the afternoon where they said it was common to only carch about 7 fish. Chris and his partner plopped us right in a honey hole where we all caught our 5 fish limit with over half an hour left in our trip. We left with 20 fish in our boat that yieled over 50 pounds of fillets. We already reserved for next year for Father’s day weekend again. 100% recommend and wouldn’t go with anyone else.

    Best crew out there

    5 Hour Trip PM • 3 adults

    Trip was perfect. Great boat, great crew, and great fish! Everyone said it was slow that day, but Chris and Jeff put us on 12 big ol keepers. They cleaned the fish and bagged them at the end of the trip. Very personable crew that we will be taking the kids out with next time! This is the charter you want!
