Captain Jay has spent more than 30 years fishing the waters of the Great Lakes and has built a reputation for helping anglers experience some of Michigan's best freshwater fisheries. Since becoming a licensed charter captain in 2009, he has guided guests across Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Saginaw Bay, the Detroit River, and the frozen waters of Saginaw Bay during ice fishing season.

What sets Captain Jay apart is his versatility. Whether he's trolling for Salmon on Lake Michigan, chasing Walleye on Saginaw Bay, vertical jigging the Detroit River, or transporting guests across the ice by snowmobile in the middle of winter, he brings decades of local knowledge and a passion for sharing the sport with others.

Captain Jay enjoys fishing with anglers of all experience levels and takes pride in creating a welcoming environment for families, beginners, and seasoned fishermen alike. His laid-back personality, commitment to customer service, and love of the outdoors help make every trip both productive and enjoyable.
