    A Special Morning of Lake Michigan fishing!

    6 Hour Trip (AM) • 6 adults

    We fished with Captain Brian and his son with Big Daddy Charters on the Big Daddy II, and caught our limit. Perfect weather, fish were bitting, and Brian put us on the fish where we had multiple double and triples hook ups! Very clean boat and equipment and worked together seamlessly. Great crew and would highly recommend these guys to anyone! Thanks again for the awesome trip!

    Reported catch:
    Chinook Salmon

    Great experience

    3 Hr Charter Mid-Week • 6 adults

    I bought this trip for my three adult children and spouses celebrating the youngest's 30th birthday. He wanted to re-live his memory of trips with my father who passed away in 2013. It fulfilled every memory. Dave and Mike were easy going and friendly. Caught 5 fish on just the three hour charter. I highly recommend this service and boat.

    Nice captain, bad weather

    5 Hr trip (PM only) • 6 adults • 2 children

    Brock and his counterpart were very nice and did what they could to help us have a good time. However, if you are planning to book with them check the maritime weather report. We’ve had experiences with captains before who call and let us know the weather conditions weren’t favorable, so when we didn’t get any info from them, we thought it would be a nice day on the water. 3 of us got super sea sick because the swells were like 9 feet high. While they don’t control the weather, I would have appreciated a heads up that it would be unpleasant, and maybe the opportunity to reschedule. Otherwise it would have been a nice trip with a nice captain.
