Reel Stories from Happy Anglers

"If you're looking for a fun and successful fishing trip, Captain Eric with Get Hooked Fishing Charters is the perfect guide! I took three 13-year-old boys on a trip, and they had an absolute blast. Captain Eric came prepared with live bait, high-quality rods, and a Fish Finder, teaching us effective techniques to get the fish biting—and it worked! The boys were busy reeling them in and loving every minute. He's great with all ages, easy to talk to, and even helped us find extra gear at the marina for fishing back at our Airbnb. The 5 hours flew by, and before we knew it, he was expertly filleting our catch. We had such an amazing experience that I'd return to Lake St. Clair and Anchor Bay/New Baltimore just to fish with him again. While no one can guarantee results, Captain Eric's hard work and dedication make it hard to imagine coming up empty. 10/10 recommend—can't wait for the next trip" - Ashley

"We had an absolute blast fishing with Captain Eric, and he was a huge part of what made our charter so incredible. Our goal was simple—catch fish, and then catch some epic fish—and we did both! Of course, we know fishing can be hit or miss, but this trip was nothing short of amazing. We landed six different species, including tons of Walleye, White Bass, Yellow Perch, a big Drum, a monster Channel Catfish, and even a Musky! We even hooked a flag with a little Bass attached—definitely a first! Huge thanks to Captain Eric for being such a kind, knowledgeable, and personable guide. He made the experience unforgettable, and we can't recommend him enough. Five stars all the way!" - Richard

Fish on the Hit List

Let's talk about the stars of the show - the fish we're after. First up, the walleye. These golden-eyed predators are prized for their tasty fillets and the challenge they present. They've got a knack for light bites, so you've got to stay on your toes. We usually find them hanging out near drop-offs or cruising sandy flats. Spring and fall are prime time for walleye, but we can catch them year-round if we play our cards right.

Next, we've got the smallmouth bass. Pound for pound, these bronze bombers are some of the hardest fighting fish in freshwater. They love rocky areas and will smash a well-presented lure with gusto. When a smallie hits, hold on tight - they're known for acrobatic jumps and powerful runs. Late spring through early fall is when they're most active, but they'll bite year-round if you know where to look.

Don't forget about the northern pike. These toothy critters are the ambush predators of the lake. They'll lurk in weed beds, waiting to pounce on anything that looks like an easy meal. Pike fishing is all about the excitement - when they hit, it's like a freight train on the end of your line. They're most active in cooler water, so early spring and late fall can be pike paradise.

Last but not least, we've got the yellow perch. These little guys might not be the biggest fish in the lake, but what they lack in size, they make up for in numbers and taste. Perch often school up, so when you find them, it can be non-stop action. They're perfect for introducing kids to fishing or for anyone who wants to catch a bunch of fish. Plus, there's nothing quite like a fresh perch fry at the end of the day.
