Prime Time Fishing Charters 

Join Prime Time Fishing Charters Trolling and Jigging for an unforgettable fishing experience out of Traverse City. We specialize in half and full day fishing charters on Lake Michigan and Grand Traverse Bay from April to October.

Their 31’ Sportcraft, “Always Prime Time,” is powered by twin 300 HP Mercruiser engines. It’s well suited to charter fishing, with an 11’ beam and a spacious cockpit to accommodate up to 6 anglers. The boat is equipped with modern marine electronics to ensure your trip is both safe and successful. We now have our 21’ boat available for up to 4 passengers.

Being based in Traverse City gives Captain Jerry and Captain Taylor easy access to Grand Traverse Bay and Lake Michigan. Here, the Lake Trout fishery is good all season long, and Salmon fishing is excellent from mid-August to early October. They fish both arms of the Grand Traverse Bay to make sure you are always in the best place to catch fish.

All tackle and equipment are included in the price of any given trip, but you’ll need to bring your own Michigan fishing license with you for the trip. Capt. Jerry and Capt. Taylor will take care of the rest, and will even clean and bag your catch after the trip. For the best experience, be sure to bring a pair of polarized sunglasses and some sunscreen.

Come on down to Traverse City and make your angling dreams come true!
