Captain John was a pleasure. The afternoon trip was perfect weather. On the way out he pointed out several historical facts. The conversation was good, and the fishing was great. We caught 14 keeper walleye, and 4 perch. We caught around 15 short walleye under 15 1/2 inches. We are planning on a morning trip next year! Great day on Lake Erie! Thanks John, see you next time.

Wow! What a great trip. 2 day walleye fishing charter with Captain John and first mate Scott was perfect. First day was slow to start, the fish just weren't there. Caught a couple. We repositioned about 30 minutes to the east and BAM! Nonstop action. Limited out. Day number 2 we went back to same place. Caught fish all day long. Several big catfish also (Ky boys like em). Scott the first mate knew his stuff. We can't speak highly enough of this guy. Captain John and Scott are a great combination that in my opinion can't be topped. Trips like that are the ones that will never be forgotten. Thank you Justin, Tony, Brad, and Pops

Awesome First Class operation goes above and beyond!! They don't herd you on and off like cattle John and his First mates are A-1! Would 100pct recommend him!!!

Great captain and First mate. They will go the distance to find the fish. Helped our crew limit out on walleye with over 80 lbs of meat. Extremely patient and knowledgeable folks.

I was lucky enough to win this charter from the Port Clinton walleye drop John had donated too. We had a pretty good day despite the heat and the "one foot or less waves" the radio kept SAYING lol. But we caught 19 and had a good time. The ride in got a little wet as we caught a pretty good storm on the way in but nothing to bad. I would definitely go out with Captain John again as the perch are now firing up! Thanks again for a good time! A++++
