Walleye

White Perch

We experienced some incredible conditions this weekend on Saginaw Bay, got a little wet, enjoyed an incredible rainbow, one curious pelican, and put a master angler in the boat, albeit a  White Perch but a patch nonetheless coming to one happy customer and a story.  Oh and we put some Walleyes in the boat.  Good friend of mine told me when I first started charter fishing to remember "It's not all about the fish" Captain you are absolutely right.  Book a trip and enjoy the Saginaw bay.
