What's the Deal?

Picture this: You're out on Lake Erie's open water, the sun's either rising or setting (depending on if you pick the AM or PM trip), and you're about to experience some of the best walleye fishing around. Captain Kenny's not just any old guide – he's a licensed pro who's been chasing these fish for years. He'll get you to the honey holes where the big ones lurk. You'll be using top-of-the-line rods, reels, and tackle, so all you need to focus on is the thrill of the catch. Whether you're a total newbie or you've been fishing since you could walk, this trip's designed to give everyone a fair shot at landing a monster walleye.

Trolling for Trophies

On this trip, we'll mostly be trolling – that's where the magic happens for walleye on Lake Erie. We'll set up multiple lines with specific lures and depths, then cruise at just the right speed to entice those walleye to bite. Captain Kenny's got it down to a science, tweaking the setup based on conditions, time of day, and where the fish are hanging out. You'll learn the ins and outs of reading fish finders, setting up planer boards, and choosing the right lures. And when that rod starts bouncing? That's when the real fun begins! You'll be reeling in your own catches, with the captain there to lend a hand if needed. It's a team effort out here, and nothing beats the high-fives when someone lands a big one.

Target Species

Walleye are the stars of the show on Lake Erie, and for good reason. These golden-eyed predators are some of the tastiest freshwater fish you'll ever sink your teeth into. But don't let their delicious reputation fool you – they put up one heck of a fight! Walleye in Erie can grow to impressive sizes, with fish over 10 pounds not uncommon. They're crafty, often hanging out near structure or in deeper water during the day, then moving to shallower areas to feed as the light fades. That's why our AM and PM trips are prime time for catching these bad boys. Spring and fall tend to be the hottest seasons, but Captain Kenny knows how to find them year-round. When you hook into a big walleye, you'll feel that distinctive head shake and powerful runs. It's an rush that keeps anglers coming back year after year.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Let's be real – fishing with Captain Kenny isn't just about filling the cooler (though you'll have a good shot at that too). It's about the whole experience. You're out there on one of the Great Lakes, surrounded by open water and big sky. The camaraderie on the boat is second to none – swapping stories, learning new techniques, and cheering each other on. And when someone hooks into a big walleye? The excitement is contagious. Even if you've been skunked all day, watching your buddy reel in a trophy makes it all worth it. Plus, Captain Kenny's wealth of knowledge means you're always picking up new tricks of the trade. By the end of the trip, you'll have a deeper appreciation for Lake Erie's ecosystem and the art of walleye fishing.

What to Bring & Know

Alright, let's talk logistics. You'll want to dress for the weather – layers are your friend out on the water. Don't forget sunscreen, a hat, and polarized sunglasses to cut the glare. Bring some snacks and drinks to keep your energy up (no glass bottles though). Your fishing license is a must – you can grab a one-day or multi-day pass online before the trip. Captain Kenny's got all the gear covered, so no need to lug your own rods and tackle unless you've got a lucky setup you can't leave behind. Oh, and about that deposit – it's non-refundable, so make sure you're good to go before booking. If the weather looks sketchy, the captain will be in touch about rescheduling. Safety first out here on Erie!
