Gear Up for Success

No need to lug your tackle box – Captain Jack's got you covered with all the rods, reels, and bait you'll need. We're talking quality gear that's up to the task of handling Lake Erie's fighters. You'll be armed with a mix of trolling setups and jigging rods, depending on what's working best that day. Live bait, artificial lures, bottom bouncers – we've got it all. The boat's equipped with top-of-the-line fish finders and GPS, so we can stay on the schools and mark those productive spots. And when the day's done, the captain will clean your catch, so you can head home with fresh fillets ready for the pan.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

It's simple – results. Captain Jack's charters have a rock-solid reputation for putting clients on fish, day in and day out. But it's not just about numbers – it's about quality. We're talking about the chance to land that 30-inch walleye you've been dreaming about, or filling a cooler with jumbo perch. The 8-hour trip gives you the time to really dial in your technique and wait for those trophy bites. Plus, with a smaller group size, you get more personalized attention and the flexibility to adapt the trip to your preferences. It's the kind of experience that has fishermen booking their next trip before they even hit the dock.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Walleye: The crown jewel of Lake Erie fishing, walleye are the main event on this charter. These golden-eyed predators are known for their hard fights and delicious fillets. In Lake Erie, they can grow to impressive sizes, with 5-8 pounders being common and the chance at a true trophy over 10 pounds always on the table. Spring and fall are prime times for big walleye, but Captain Jack knows how to find them year-round. We'll be targeting them with a mix of trolling and jigging techniques, adapting to their behavior and the conditions on any given day.

American Yellow Perch: Don't let their size fool you – yellow perch are a blast to catch and a treat on the table. Lake Erie is famous for its "jumbo" perch, which can reach up to 12-14 inches. These feisty fish often school in large numbers, so when you find them, it's non-stop action. We typically target perch with light tackle and live bait, fishing near the bottom where they like to hang out. The best perch fishing usually happens in the fall, but good catches can be had throughout the summer months as well.
