Captain Horton's Walleye Bass Charters

If you’re ready to experience Walleye fishing on the Detroit River like never before, Horton Charters is here to show you what these waters have to offer. Based in Wyandotte, Michigan, this charter service is all about providing quality fishing trips that are as smooth, productive, and enjoyable as possible. Whether you're new to the sport or you've been casting lines for decades, Captain William brings the know-how and the setup to help you get results.

Your guide for the day, Capt. William, is dedicated to helping anglers reel in their target catch with patience, precision, and hands-on support. He's spent years navigating the Detroit River and surrounding areas, and his seasonal knowledge makes him a strong asset when conditions change. While Walleye is the star of the show, you may also encounter other local species depending on the time of year and current patterns.

Each trip lasts around 6 hours and can be customized depending on your skill level and goals for the day. Capt. William uses a variety of techniques to match the bite—including trolling, jigging, spinning, and both light and heavy tackle approaches. Whether you're drifting with bottom rigs or actively casting, he'll guide you through what’s working and adjust to the conditions as needed.

You’ll fish aboard a 20’ Ranger 620, a sleek, well-equipped vessel that comfortably fits up to 3 anglers. The boat features an ice box to keep your catch fresh and a wireless trolling motor for precision boat handling. It’s a solid setup for smaller groups looking for targeted fishing without distractions.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are provided for your convenience. Just be sure to bring your Michigan fishing license and any personal items you may need throughout the trip. Snacks and drinks are available on board, and you’re welcome to bring your own—just let Capt. William know in advance.

Whether you're chasing your first Walleye or looking to sharpen your technique, Horton Charters offers a comfortable, focused fishing experience that keeps things simple and effective. From calm, early morning starts to midday action along the channels, each trip is designed to help you enjoy your time on the water and head home with some stories—and hopefully, a cooler full of fish.

Reserve your date today and join Capt. William for a guided Walleye trip that puts you right where the fish are.
