I grew up fishing the Great Lakes with my dad. After college I worked as a herdsman on a dairy farm. A friend asked me to get my license to help him with some duck hunts. I decided that was a great idea and to jump in head first and start my own business with duck hunting and salmon fishing! Best decision I’ve ever made, I truly love my job! My favorite is watching kids catch their first king salmon! Reminds me of when I was a youngster and fishing with my dad I truly work my hardest to show you a great time on the water all fishing aside!

About Your Trip

Join Captain Josh for an exciting salmon and trout fishing adventure on Lake Michigan! Whether you're looking for a quick afternoon outing or a longer day on the water, Captain Josh offers 4, 5, and 7-hour trips designed to give anglers of all experience levels a chance to experience the outstanding Great Lakes fishery.

The 4-hour trips are offered in the afternoons, while the longer options allow for additional time to cover water and stay on productive fish. Throughout the trip, you'll be trolling a carefully planned spread of artificial lures and select dead bait presentations to target some of Lake Michigan's most sought-after species.

Depending on the season and current conditions, you'll be targeting King Salmon, Coho Salmon, and a variety of trout species. These fish are known for their powerful runs, hard fights, and exciting strikes, making every hookup a memorable experience. Captain Josh and his crew continually adjust lure selection, trolling speeds, and depths to match the day's conditions and keep lines in productive water.

You'll be fishing aboard a comfortable Great Lakes trolling vessel equipped for a safe and enjoyable day on the water. A dedicated first mate is always aboard to assist with setting lines, coaching anglers, and helping throughout the trip, ensuring a smooth experience from start to finish. The boat also features an enclosed restroom for added comfort during your time on the lake.

All rods, reels, tackle, and fishing equipment are provided. Be sure to bring a cooler with your favorite snacks and drinks for the trip, along with room for your fillets at the end of the day. Ice is provided after the trip to help keep your catch fresh for the ride home.

Captain Josh and his crew look forward to welcoming you aboard for a great day of fishing on Lake Michigan!
