As a first-time fishing charter guest, I had an excellent experience. The crew went above and beyond to help us catch as many fish as possible. Highly recommended!

I took my wife, son, and son-in-law out for a morning charter, and it was a fantastic experience. The weather was perfect, and watching the sunrise over the water was unforgettable. It was my son-in-law’s first time fishing the Great Lakes, and he’s now hooked—one more item checked off his bucket list! The boat was very comfortable, and having a toilet on board gave my wife peace of mind. Captain Dave and first mate Todd clearly know their stuff and made the whole trip enjoyable. We ended the day with three limits to take home. Thank you, Fishin’ Da Net, for such a memorable trip!

Both Dave and his deckhand were very kind, and we had an enjoyable time on the boat. That said, it’s tough to spend that kind of money and only bring in two fish. This was my third salmon charter in the last five years with different captains, and each time has had little to no success—so maybe it’s just bad luck, or maybe fishing on Lake Michigan can be hit-or-miss. Overall, Dave was great to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him as a captain. I just find myself questioning if the cost is worth it when you have a full boat of five people and only two get to land a fish.

Captain David and Todd gave us one of the best fishing experiences we’ve ever had! On a 4-hour trip, we hit our limit in just a few hours and brought in some incredible king salmon. Highly recommend booking with Captain David!

I’ve been on many charters from Lake Michigan to the Florida Keys, and Captain Dave along with deckhand Todd did an outstanding job. The bite wasn’t hot at first, but they pulled out every trick in the book—and then some—to make sure we put fish in the boat. Their equipment was top-notch, and the spread they set was perfect. On our 4-hour trip, we landed 5 quality kings and a big rainbow. They were even willing to stay out longer so we could hit our limit, but we had to head back to check out of our hotel. Todd was kind enough to wait so we could grab our luggage and still get pictures with our catch. Excellent charter—thank you, Todd and Dave! – Steve & Trissa

We booked our fishing trip with Captain Dave, and from start to finish he was excellent. He communicated clearly throughout the process, gave us helpful suggestions on what to bring (and what not to), and kept us updated on the weather. His boat was very organized, stocked with plenty of gear, and he wasted no time getting us on the water. Within the first 30 minutes, we were already getting bites! We caught numerous fish, and Dave made sure every family member had a fun and engaging experience. He was patient, kind-hearted, and professional—unlike some guides we’ve had in the past who were rough around the edges. Dave took the time to explain the history of the lake and walk us through the fishing process, which made the trip even more enjoyable. At the end, he carefully filleted and packaged each fish for us. This was by far the best fishing trip we’ve ever been on, and Dave is one of the best guides we’ve ever had. Highly recommend him 100%, and we can’t wait to come back again one day!
