Fishing Reports and Captain's Log

 

April 9, 2010

Well-  due to the great weather  and fishing- we went in the water a week early.  We will be finishing rigging the boat on Saturday and  taking the family out fishing on Sunday. Monday April 12th we will be open for business..  Perch fishing has been good.  If you are considering a perch trip- we have weekday availability  and  some weekend dates available. 

We are now booking May salmon trips- be sure to look at our rate page for our current special for May trips.  You can save up to $120 a trip!  May fishing is one of the best kept secrets--producing some of our best catches of the year.  It can be cooler during these trips due to the cold water- but our full enclosure will keep all 6 passengers cozy. Feel free to contact me at 616-638-6145 anytime from 8am-10pm 7 days a week for more information on trips.

Welcome to the 2010 charter season.  This will be our 27th year chartering out of Grand Haven. Our winter has been much easier on us than last year.  I  hope everyone is doing well.

Our 2009 fishing season was fantastic. Two weeks before the boat went in the water, I was blessed with a new baby boy- Parker Dana.  Yes--he's already been out fishing with us!!

We would like to thank everyone who fished with us in 2009- You helped make us Grand Haven's #1 Charter Service.  If you fished last year or are considering a trip be sure to look at our Facebook page for photos of previous trips.      . We have pictures from the 2009 season there with many more to come.

We had a good fishing season--our Salmon size was up quite a bit--with our fish looking very plump and healthy.  As many of you know, last season was the first for our new boat and customer's loved it. The 33 ft length and 13 ft width of the boat provide a wide stable trolling platform.  We feature comfortable seating, large private restroom facilities, and have  added a full enclosure (and heat) last fall, making trips very enjoyable when mother nature does not co operate. 

    

    

For 2010, we will begin our season on April 19th.  Perch fishing has been on a huge rebound and last year it was incredible in mid to late April.  For those that have never tasted perch--you have no idea what you are missing. We will be offering Perch Fishing Charters from April 19th thru the first week of May. We provide the poles and bait--you bring the energy and excitement. Call me for details and special rates on these trips. 

The next 2 months we will be at many outdoor/sporting events working booths-giving  seminars-and working with our sponsors.   We would like to thank all of our 2009 sponsors who will be continuing support in 2010 including Michigan Stinger Fishing Products, Rapture Trolling Flies, Pro Troll, Proos Downtrollers, Silver Horde, Slide Diver, Okuma, and MR Marine in Spring Lake, MI.
