Casting For Christ
Welcome to Casting For Christ, where Lake Michigan fishing is more than a trip—it's a tradition.
Based out of Milwaukee and Racine, we are FULL-TIME and we offer professionally guided Salmon and Trout charters on open water and ice with over 40 years of family fishing experience.
Whether you're chasing trophy King Salmon, Coho Salmon, Brown Trout, or Steelhead, we've got the local knowledge, tournament-winning techniques, and top-of-the-line gear to make your day on the water unforgettable.
From exciting trolling runs to hands-on jigging action, we tailor each trip to your style and skill level. Captain Nate is not only a seasoned angler with multiple tournament victories under his belt, but also passionate about creating memorable, safe, and exciting experiences for anglers of all ages.
We've racked up over 10+ tournament victories in Salmon-A-Rama within our family and bring that same drive and expertise to every charter. All you have to bring is your fishing license and whatever snacks you'd like—we'll handle the rest!
When winter settles in, we shift gears and target two of the most exciting species you can catch through the ice—Steelhead and Brown Trout. These hard-fighting, cold-water giants are a true test of skill and a thrill for any angler.
Fishing in harbors and nearshore areas of Lake Michigan, we focus on proven locations where big browns and chrome-bright steelhead cruise beneath the ice. We provide heated shanties, high-end rods, reels, and electronics to give you the best shot at landing a fish of a lifetime.
Whether you're a die-hard trout angler or looking for a unique ice fishing experience, this trip offers a rare opportunity to connect with some of the most prized fish the Great Lakes have to offer—all in the heart of winter.
Let's fish, make memories, and land some giants on Lake Michigan!

Despit a choppy sunny afternoon, Nate found the fish and the biting window to land us a great catch! Our first experience on tge big lake for my 10yo and I…along with some great instruction on how to reel in the big Salmon and Trout. Highly recommend for first timer or experienced big lake fishing. Tips: be prepared for nearly the full time on the lake (suppose unless you had your catch earlier), I rushed getting there and I admittedly forgot to bring my water or snacks. My own doing. We’re certainly going to go fishing with Nate again!
Nate was great at answering all my questions before our trip. He was friendly and never condescending about directions and safety. We didn't start off strong because of the time of day we got started, but he worked extra hard to get us on fish. His gear was top-notched and we really had fun. We caught several and he allowed us to donate them. Afterwards, he didn't just leave. We sat and talked over softdrinks and water. He told us about other fishing opportunities, and if we come back, he's our guy!
My first time fishing the great lake for salmon, steelhead and Captain Nate made it an epic show. We start around 5:40 am and made quick work landing our limit by 7:40 with couple lost fish. There are couple double headers and the hard fighting got a workout fo me. my left arm is sore ! Recommend captain Nate service to everyone. He'll make sure you have fun times!. I will definitely be back with Nate next time we're in Milwaukee. Thank you Captain Nate!!!
Had a great first ever fishing trip shared with my 13 year old son! Captain Nate was excellent, well prepared, knowledgeable, and on task 100% of the time to get us in great fishing waters, catching incredible steelhead & brown trout, king and coho salmon. He was patient, with a teaching spirit as my son and I learned the ropes of fishing on Lake Michigan. I hope to do this again in the future, and I’ll definitely be using Captain Nate as our guide no matter the season of year!
This was our very first time going fishing, and we honestly knew absolutely nothing about it. We took our two sons, aged 5 and 8, and my husband, and Captain Nate made sure we had the absolute best experience! It was so exciting catching salmon, especially for the kids. To top it all off, Captain Nate even shared a delicious recipe with us at the end to cook our catch. I recommend him 100%! Thank you, Captain Nate, for an amazing day on Lake Michigan!
I had an amazing experience fishing with Captain Nate! He was super knowledgeable, patient, and made the trip really enjoyable from start to finish. I’m new to fresh water fishing so this was my first salmon ever. Nate walked me through everything step by step and helped me land my very first one! You can tell he really knows the water and where the fish are biting. The whole trip was well-organized, relaxed, and fun. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced angler, I highly recommend booking with Nate. It was definitely a day to remember, and I’ll be coming back for another trip for trout and steelhead season soon!

My father and son(s) fishing trip to Lake Michigan, in Milwaukee was a success. My whole intention was for them to catch a monster fish! Thank you Capt. Nate, owner of Casting For Christ fishing charter, for putting us on the King Salmons!

"Mannnnnn…..Lake Michigan delivered today! 🎣 Had an absolutely awesome experience out on the water here in Milwaukee pulling in some gorgeous King Salmon and Coho. Nothing beats the drag-peeling fight of these giants!Thank you to Captain Nate with Casting For Christ for getting us right on the fish this morning. Your deep knowledge of the lake and fishing expertise definitely showed!"

Went out on the ice of Lake Michigan with Captain Nate. The fishing was exciting from the moment I arrived, and we caught big trout all day. Captain Nate was an extremely nice guy, and answered any question I had about the fishing process, the fish themselves, or the waterway we were fishing on. He was full of knowledge and set us up for a great day of fishing. I am already looking forward to another trip. I would recommend anyone to book with Captain Nate for a good day of fishing. 10/10 could not have been a better experience.

I had a great experience with my two sons with Capt. Nate. He was a great captain. The waves were choppy that day, but we stayed out as long as we can, and we still had a great time. My son caught a huge King Salmon, and checked off one of his bucket list. We had a wonderful time, and would definitely recommend him. He was very friendly and kind.

Thank you so much, Brian! I really appreciate the kind words. It was a pleasure having you guys out, and I’m glad we were able to grind it out and put some nice fish in the boat! I also really enjoyed getting to sit down and talk with you guys afterward. Hope to see you back in Wisconsin for another trip sometime! 🎣
