About Your Trip

If you’re looking to chase some of the Lake Erie's famous walleye, there’s no one better to guide you than Captain Mark. With years of experience and an expert’s understanding of the lake’s topography and fish patterns, Captain Mark knows exactly where to find those coveted Walleye hotspots. Whether you're a seasoned angler looking to set a personal best or a beginner eager to learn, he’ll provide the guidance and support you need to make the most of your day on the water.

Your adventure takes place aboard a 35' Viking Sport Cruiser, the ultimate combination of fishing performance and onboard comfort. Outfitted with advanced trolling gear and the latest electronics, this boat is equipped to give you the edge in reeling in those impressive Lake Erie Walleye. And you don’t have to sacrifice comfort for success—the Viking Sport Cruiser features a full galley, bathroom, dual air conditioners, heater, refrigerator, and cozy V-berth. Head up to the flybridge for unbeatable views of the lake, or book an afternoon trip to catch a stunning sunset over the water as you wrap up your fishing adventure.

Captain Mark welcomes families aboard, making this a perfect trip for all ages to unplug, connect, and experience the thrill of fishing together. Kids are welcome to join, but make sure to confirm life vest sizes with Captain Mark in advance. Be sure to bring along snacks, drinks, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but it’s best to avoid hard liquor and glass bottles for safety.

Don’t forget to grab a local fishing license before the trip—everyone on board will need one to fish Lake Erie’s waters. Captain Mark’s expertise, paired with the Viking’s comfort and equipment, ensures you’re in for a memorable day filled with big fish, great company, and beautiful scenery.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
