Ratings & Reviews Summary
November 21, 2024
We booked an outing with Captain Gintas for a bachelor party of 6 at the beginning of June. The morning of was foggy and overcast, so we were skeptical of how well the trip was going to turn out. The sun ended up burning off all of the fog/clouds for a beautiful day, but it wouldn't have mattered anyway because Captain Gintas put us directly on the fish. Within 10 minutes of having bait in the water we were catching fish - and that pace kept up the entire day. We caught our limit in Lake Trout as well has a fair number of Coho salmon. Captain Gintas was incredibly knowledgeable and had 20+ years of experience and stories to share along the way. The deckhand Nick was also great and offered tips as well as cleaned/bagged all of our catch for us for transport when we got back to the dock. The entire experience exceeded all of our expectations, and we are already looking to book another outing before the end of the season. Highly recommended for a fun and successful trip!

Another great fishing trip with Captain Gintas! We were invited to fish with a documentary film crew on his boat. The crew was looking to film charter fishing on Lake Michigan and chose Captain Gintas over all the other charter services. He definitely did not disappoint. They got the footage they needed, and we took home more than enough salmon and trout. Win Win for all.

Captain Gintas outdid himself!! Bought my brother a fishing charter for him to hang out on the lake with his buddies. Waters were a bit choppy, it rained, but Captain Gintas maneuvered that water like McGyver! Brother and his friends have enough fish to last them through the winter... thumbs all the wayyyy up!

Captain Gintas is not only a great Captain but his knowledge of Lake Michigan and the sport fish it has is unfathomable. He knows how to make a fishing outing on the Angler one to remember for a life time and I've been out with him with my friends and family many many times through the years. So many Lake trout, coho, steelhead, brown trout we have hauled in. Each trip we hit our limits! When I'm on his boat I feel like a Pro Angler. We will be back out this season for more memories. I can't wait.

Seven of us went out last weekend on a fishing trip with Captain Gintas and his first mate Nick. We had a blast. Drank some beer and caught over 300 pounds of fish. Holy carp! (Get it...hahaha). Just kidding, no carp. Salmon, trout, etc. The Captain and mate knew their stuff and taught us some great stuff while providing a really awesome day on the lake. Nick filleted our fish right there on the boat and wrapped it up to take home. He even made some sushi right there on the boat....freaking delicious. Captain Gintas ONLY does fishing trips. No booze cruises. Which means...if you want to have an awesome fishing trip...this is your guy. That is not to say we didn't get drunk. We did. But we caught a ton of fish. Big ones. And that was a riot.

I have been out with the Anglers Charter group twice, once this summer and once last summer. It was a blast both times. I never knew you could catch such huge fish in Lake Michigan unless you were on a commercial fishing boat. Captain Gintas definitely knows how to find the big ones out there on the Lake .Last summer I went out with 5 of my buddies andwe caught about 16 huge fish, brown trout, coho and salmon it was pretty nice. On the 4th I went out with him in a small party and we caught a ton of fish. I have 4 freezer bags full of fish. the crew cleans all the fish for you they even video for you if you want. It's a really nice trip it allows you to see one of the hidden gems in this great city of ours.
