WHAT TO EXPECT

  • Our #1 goal is safety!
  • We provide everything that is necessary for your trip to catch fish and stay safe doing it! We comply with all US Coast Guard and PA Fish and Boat regulations.
  • Lake Erie can be quite temperamental. In saying that we do reserve the right to cancel or delay the trip. If the trip is cancelled due to weather it will either be rescheduled or refunded. 
  • Fish Cleaning: $2 per fish
  • First Mates: They are an integral part of your charter. They are responsible for docking, setup, cleaning the catch and much more.  First mates work for tips, as is customary.  A tip is much appreciated as they go above and beyond to make your trip fun and successful! 10-20% is common.
