Northern Lights Adventures 

Our family had an outstanding experience on this charter fishing trip. From the moment we stepped aboard, the crew was approachable, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating, even arranging to pick us up on Madeline Island. What stood out most was how comfortable they made everyone feel, regardless of fishing experience. None of us are serious sport fishers, but they explained everything clearly, answered every question, and helped us every step of the way. We never felt intimidated or out of place. The atmosphere was family-friendly, inclusive, and encouraging. Safety was clearly their top priority. Within minutes of boarding, both kids were fitted with secure life jackets, and everyone on the boat wore slim-profile flotation gear throughout the trip. It was reassuring to know the crew was CPR-certified and equipped with both first-aid supplies and an AED. They were careful, professional, and genuinely kind. The crew’s knowledge of the lake, fishing conditions, and local environment was impressive. When equipment tangled or something broke, they handled it quickly and calmly without any frustration or drama, keeping the experience fun and stress-free. The lunch was excellent, and booking the full-day trip was absolutely worth it. We were able to travel further out on the lake, enjoy more solitude, and fish in areas where we didn’t see another boat for hours. If you’re considering a charter fishing trip, especially as a family, I can’t recommend this crew highly enough. They made the entire day enjoyable, educational, safe, and memorable.

Captain Sean was great both days, we had a different first mate each day. Josh AKA “The Perfect Catch” (c; was up on the first day and Al joined us the second day. All three were great guys very personable and great fishing buddies! The first day we landed 18 lake trout. I’m pretty sure Josh may have out fished the Captin that day. On the 1/2 day trip I know Al out fished Sean, with Al hooking all 4 and Sean with the 🪿 🥚 (c; Would highly recommend this charter!! We will plan to be back next year god willing.

Fishing was a little slow, but not because the crew wasn’t trying everything they could to get us on fish! Sometimes that’s just how fishing goes. 🎣 The crew made the trip worth it—they were friendly, outgoing, and kept the conversation going the whole time. Great crew, great experience, and we’re already looking forward to going again!

I booked this charter for a surprise birthday trip. I was initially nervous going into it considering my husband is an experienced fishermen. This charter took him by surprise and we ended up having so much fun! What a wonderful way for experienced and non-experienced fishermen to go fishing! we wouldn’t dream of going to a different charter!

They contacted us the day prior to explain forecasted high wind conditions and were able to reschedule the trip one day later. Overall excellent timely communication and were able to pick is up at Madeline Island so we didnt need to travel to Bayview. shared alot of interesting information about Lake Superior and the Apostle Islands.

The captain and his crew was amazing, very funny guys, we felt at home and learned alot, we caught fish and had lots of laughs. i would recommend this trip to anyone. if your just loooking for the experience a half day is great and if you are looking for a full day, these guys can do it all!! we will return for another trip of fishing!

Sean and Savanna were amazing captains! They are super knowledgeable of the area and history of the lakes and islands, know the fishing spots, know a great shallow and clear spot for swimming, paddle boarding, snorkeling, and more! They are very laid back, funny, and friendly! We would definitely book through them again!

Sean and Al were absolutely amazing. One of the best days of fishing I’ve ever had. We caught massive lake trout but even more importantly, Sean and Al made us feel so at home and took great care of us. Truly a special day - our family will have these memories forever ❤️

Captain Sean an fish expert Josh, got us fish almost immediately. An we continued to catch fish. Informative about the lake an area, both guys being locals. Couple good guys with great senses of humor. Thank you Sean an Josh , we all had a great time.

Both Shaun and Al were informative and diligent and and just great. We visited a lot. We laughed a lot. We caught five fish so five of the six guys on the trip each caught a fish which was really nice.
