Looking for a solid day of walleye fishing without breaking the bank? Captain Keith Yaworski's shared charter on Saginaw Bay is exactly what you need. This isn't some crowded cattle boat operation – we're talking about a maximum of four anglers on a spacious 30-foot Pro-Line cabin cruiser, so you'll have plenty of room to fish comfortably. The twin 200HP Yamaha engines get you to the fish fast and keep the ride smooth, even when Saginaw Bay decides to throw a little chop your way. Whether you're bringing your fishing buddy, introducing the family to walleye fishing, or just want to get out on the water without the hassle of organizing your own boat trip, this charter hits the sweet spot.
Captain Keith runs his operation like a well-oiled machine, and it shows from the moment you step aboard. The base price covers two anglers, but you can add up to two more people at $200 each – perfect when you want to split costs with friends or bring along extra family members. The boat launches Friday through Sunday with both morning and afternoon trips available, giving you flexibility to work around your schedule. Don't worry about bringing tackle – everything's provided, from rods and reels to all the terminal gear you'll need. The captain knows these waters like the back of his hand and adjusts tactics based on what the fish are doing that day. After you've had your fill of catching walleye, the fish cleaning service takes care of the messy work so you can head home with dinner-ready fillets. Just remember to grab your Michigan fishing license before you show up – it's required for everyone who wants to wet a line.
This charter is all about trolling, which is hands-down the most effective way to cover water and find active walleye on Saginaw Bay. The Pro-Line's twin engines let Captain Keith control boat speed precisely, keeping your presentations in the strike zone. You'll be pulling a spread of lines at different depths, using everything from bottom bouncers and crawler harnesses to crankbaits and spinner rigs, depending on what's producing. The boat's equipped with quality downriggers and planer boards to spread your baits out and reach fish that might be spooked by the boat's presence. Electronics play a huge role too – the captain uses his fish finder and GPS to locate schools and structure where walleye like to hang out. The beauty of trolling is that it works for anglers of all skill levels. Beginners can focus on learning how to feel a bite and set the hook, while experienced fishermen can pick up new techniques and learn the nuances of reading Saginaw Bay's underwater structure. The cabin provides shelter when weather gets iffy, and there's plenty of deck space to move around and help each other land fish.
Walleye are the main attraction on Saginaw Bay, and for good reason – this body of water produces some of Michigan's best walleye fishing year-round. These golden-sided beauties typically run anywhere from 14 inches up to trophy-class fish pushing 28 inches or more. Peak action usually fires up in late spring through early fall, with fish moving between deeper water and the shallows depending on water temperature and baitfish movements. What makes walleye so popular isn't just their willingness to bite – they're absolutely fantastic eating, with firm white meat that's perfect for the frying pan or grill. During your five hours on the water, don't be surprised if you hook into some bonus species too. Saginaw Bay is home to healthy populations of yellow perch, which often feed in the same areas as walleye, plus the occasional white perch or freshwater drum. The real prize, though, is when you tie into a big walleye that's been feeding heavy on the bay's abundant emerald shiners and gizzard shad. These well-fed fish fight hard and make for outstanding table fare. Spring and fall tend to produce the most consistent action, but summer fishing can be red-hot early in the morning or later in the evening when walleye move up to feed in shallower water.
Captain Keith's shared walleye charters fill up fast, especially during prime fishing months, so don't wait around if you want to secure your spot.
