Captain Ken has been hooked from the start! He's from the Port Clinton area, and grew up fishing with his dad an uncles, all of whom were charter captains. He's a passionate fisherman who knows the reefs, rock piles, and deep water fishing holes better than most, and he loves guiding new clients on beautiful Lake Erie.

Captain Ken has been hooked from the start! He's from the Port Clinton area, and grew up fishing with his dad an uncles, all of whom were charter captains. He's a passionate fisherman who knows the reefs, rock piles, and deep water fishing holes better than most, and he loves guiding new clients on beautiful Lake Erie.

runs St. Croix and Daiwa Aird-X rods and Pfleuger President reels. Each casting rig is adorned with 20 lb Power Pro.

Capt Ken also runs big trolling boards

carrying 7-9 rods a side. This provides maximum coverage area for seeking pods of schooling Walleye. Shimamo Tekota reels and talora

rods provide a quick kill and fill for your Walleye Charter. Ken runs walk on Trips on his 38

SACPAS and 28 Duckwater rigs.

He also capitalizes on waterfowl in the fall and winter of the year on Lake Erie. Guiding customers on Lake Erie to gun for ducks and geese has been his passion.

For gunning waterfowl Ken has three rigs; the 28 Duckwater, the 32 Duckwater and the 38 SACPAS, all open water rigs are capable of crushing big water waves getting you to the gunning ground
