About Your Trip
Set sail on the stunning waters of Lake Michigan with Captain James for an unforgettable day of fishing and fun! Whether you’re a seasoned angler chasing your next trophy catch or a family looking for a thrilling outdoor adventure, this trip offers something for everyone. From Rainbow Trout to King Salmon, Captain James will put you on some of the best freshwater fishing action the Great Lakes have to offer.
You’ll be fishing aboard a
31’ Tiara Open, a sturdy and spacious vessel designed with comfort and performance in mind. With a 12-foot beam and a full head (restroom), this boat has plenty of room for you and your crew to relax between reeling in fish. Outfitted with updated electronics, Captain James uses the latest tools to locate the best fishing spots and maximize your chances of landing that dream catch. To make your experience even better, beer and alcohol are welcome on board – just remember to drink responsibly and enjoy the day with your crew!
Depending on the season, you’ll have the chance to target a variety of prized species, including King Salmon, Coho Salmon, Lake Trout, Rainbow Trout, and Brown Trout. Captain James specializes in trolling – a highly effective method that lets you cover more water and hook into these powerful fish. Every tug on the line brings a rush of excitement, and when you reel in your catch, it’s yours to take home (as long as it’s legal to keep). Captain James will even clean and fillet your fish at the end of the trip, so all you have to do is fire up the grill or toss it in the freezer!
Families are more than welcome aboard, and Captain James loves helping kids experience the joy of fishing. If you don’t have a child-sized life vest, just ask the captain ahead of time to ensure everyone is set for a safe and enjoyable outing.
Before your trip, make sure everyone in your group purchases a local fishing license – this can usually be done online. Pack your favorite snacks and drinks, non-spray sunscreen, sunglasses, and a great attitude for a day full of excitement and unforgettable memories.
With Captain James at the helm, fishing Lake Michigan is more than just a trip – it’s an adventure. Book your spot today!
