Lake Erie

Best Walleye Fishing Charter on Lake Erie!

Captain Kenneth Lewis is the owner and operator of Captain Ken’s Wild Wings, offering premier duck hunting and fishing charters based out of Port Clinton, Ohio. A lifelong outdoorsman and U.S. Coast Guard Master Captain, Ken brings decades of experience, grit, and passion to every trip on Lake Erie.

After leaving the Army in 1990, Ken started a career in repair work and soon discovered the thrill of waterfowl hunting on Lake Erie. One duck hunt was all it took — he was hooked. He started hunting more often, bought his first boat, and sharpened his skills. Encouraged by his uncle, he earned his Coast Guard license, began writing for Ohio Sportsman Magazine, and spent every vacation day running hunts on the water.

By 1996, he expanded into fishing charters, eventually running 30–50 trips a year from his 27’ SportCraft. In 2005, Ken was called back to military service, serving in Iraq and Afghanistan while pastoring and continuing to grow his guide business with the help of trusted captains back home.

Fishing has been a part of Ken’s life since childhood — but duck hunting came after the military. It’s that unique path that defines his approach today: focused, disciplined, and adaptable.

What sets Captain Ken apart from other guides in the region is simple — time, preparation, and adaptability. Drawing from his military background, Ken brings a strategic mindset to every outing. He’s always planning for changing conditions, using top-tier gear, and bringing backup plans to make sure every guest gets the best experience possible.

Whether you’re chasing trophy walleye or braving the marsh at first light for waterfowl, you’re in the hands of a guide who’s been there, done it, and never gets complacent.
