About Your Trip

If you've been looking for another great way to enjoy Lake Michigan in the summer, this trip with Captain Rob is for you! Lake Michigan is the third-largest of the Great Lakes and the fifth-largest lake in the world, with just over 22,000 square miles of surface area. It's loaded with fish, including famous sportfish species such as Steelhead, King Salmon, Coho Salmon, and Lake Trout—all of which you can target on this trip. These fish are a blast to catch and are even better to cook up with friends and family!

Rob captains a 32' Wellcraft sportfisher. She can comfortably fit up to 6 fishermen, so call some buddies for this trip! She's powered by twin 385-HP Mercruiser engines, so you'll be on the fish in a hurry. With trolling equipment, a GPS navigation system, and fishfinder, Rob's sportfisher is perfect for hooking big fish and haulin' em' in! As an added bonus, the onboard bathroom will keep in you in the action for the entirety of the trip.

Captain Rob provides you with all the rods and tackle you will need, but be sure to have your fishing license upon arrival. Be sure to dress accordingly with some rain gear, hat, and sunglasses so you can stay comfortable on the water. The only other thing you'll need is an ice chest to take home your fresh catch!
