Ratings & Reviews Summary

We arrived and were greeted by the captain, who informed us that fishing was a bit slow due to the unseasonably warm and calm weather. He mentioned that he had been in touch with other captains to discuss the best plan of action. The boat was clean, well-organized, and equipped with great gear. Once we were out on the water, the captain set up the gear with a positive attitude, and his humor kept everyone in high spirits—we had a lot of laughs throughout the day. The fishing picked up quickly, and we caught 3 very nice-sized steelhead and 1 smaller one. Although we hooked into two other big fish, they unfortunately got away. We also caught 4-5 smaller salmon, two of which were of legal size to keep. The captain immediately released the undersized fish. I would definitely book again and the captain suggested coming earlier in the season, as we were at the tail end of the peak fishing period.

I had a great time fishing with Craig at Cranks Charters. We found fish soon after leaving the marina and successfully caught Kings and Steelhead. Craig was knowledgeable, friendly, and put in a lot of effort to make sure we had a good trip. I highly recommend booking with him.

Fished Aug 27 with Captain Kurt and his wife Tammy, found them very gracious, accommodating, and NOT in a rush. Put us on the fish pretty quickly and had 5 on at one time (talk about crazy!) All 5 were landed! Very nice boat and tackle...would highly recommend Captain Kurt and Stalker fishing! PS: The rods, reels and lines were matched appropriately for fighting and not just (hogging them in). Thanks for great time Captain!

Captain Craig is a very experienced fisherman who won’t let you go home empty handed! He runs his boat like a boss and knows what the fish want. We thought we had scheduled our trip during a rough water cycle but he didn’t stop working the fish until we landed some big ones! He is so friendly and easy to get along with, I can’t recommend him enough! Thank you captain Craig, and we wish you the best on the summer derby. You literally made our trip buddy! See you again soon

We had 6 people and we all caught fish! Had 10 fish on in a short time out there and landed 8. Out of the 8, 6 were monsters! Would highly recommend to anyone looking to have fun and catch fish. The captian was younger 26 years old but to see a kid this young out doing the “old timers” was shocking and impressive. My hat goes off to the captain Criag. So glad we found this charter will be going again this summer.

Our foursome had a great time fishing. Captain Craig was very knowledgable fishing the Ontario waters and answered our many questions. He is a very personable individual and we had great conversations. We were fortunate to catch 6 king salmon and 2 rainbow trout on our 5 hour trip. We would definitely recommend fishing with Captain Craig. Again, thank you for a great day on the water.
