Captain Mark and Silas did a great job. We caught our limit in 2 hrs. It was a great time and good conversations. We would highly recommend using them on your next adventure!

My wife, myself and our 3 boys had a great time fishing for the first time on Lake Michigan.  The Captain and
First Mate Silas were great.

UPDATE: Captain Mark responded quickly to this review, and I was slow to write again.  He takes his client’s experience very seriously and was apologetic for how the experience ended up for us.  I appreciate and respect him, and would give this charter another go due to his honesty and loyalty to his customers. Thank you to Captain Mark and his crew.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Although the captain and his mate were friendly and experienced, it seemed as though communication with the head of the company wasn’t clear.  I was told the caught fish would be shared at the end of the charter and this was not the case. In fact, the fish we actually caught were distributed to others, but not in our own bag to keep.  This was rectified, sort of, in that some fish was taken from a different customers bag and given to us, but it wasn’t the fish we caught. Also, because I was told the fish would be evenly distributed, I handed off my pole when I was tired in hopes that a team effort might help us more - it didn’t. That man was able to keep the fish, and we didn’t get any of it for reeling in some of it. And because the boat was too small for 5 guests, my son and I were essentially forced to sit in the bow of the boat, but then when a fish bit a line we weren’t there to take the rod and someone else had more chances.  Overall, it wasn’t what I expected nor what I was told to expect. I would expect a bigger boat that can actually seat up to 5 on the main deck so everyone gets a chance to fish since we all paid the same amount of money.  Sorry, I wouldn’t recommend to another guest.

It was a great first experience for the most of us whose never gone charter fishing before. Captain Mike and First Mate Will’s expertise put us on fish even though it was a tough day chasing them. 100% would recommend this charter service to others and come back for another trip! Thank you for the great hospitality.
