Specializing in Walleye and Perch fishing, Captain Kevin’s Lake Erie Charters offers some of the best fishing in Ohio. Our service is committed to making your Great Lakes fishing experience a trip of a lifetime!

Captain Kevin Swartz will be in command of the vessel as you venture out on your Lake Erie fishing trip. Capt. Kevin has over 40 years of experience fishing and running charters in Ohio and Michigan. Walleye and Perch is his specialty and he loves to teach all of his clients everything there is to know about them. With all of his knowledge and guidance, you can rest assured your trip with him will be a success.

Your fishing trip with Capt. Kevin will begin in the “Walleye Capital of the World”, Port Clinton. Capt. Kevin wants to put you right where the fish are biting, so you could end up fishing the waters near Catawba Island, Lakeside Marblehead, Lacarne, Put-In-Bay, Kellys island, Sandusky, Huron, and many other locations along the shores of Ohio in Lake Erie.

You will be fishing off of Capt. Kevin’s 22ft Ranger boat that was built for fishing charters in Lake Erie. She is powered by a 350hp Mercury engine that will get you from spot to spot in a very timely manner. On deck, you will find all the required safety equipment including life jackets, flares, fire extinguishers, first aid, VHF radio, and all of our crew is trained in CPR. A GPS will assist Capt. Kevin with navigation along with a fish finder to better track where the fish are.

We offer 6 and 8-hour trips that provide you with rods, reels, tackle, lures, and a bait. We cover the nearshore and offshore waters of Ohio in Lake Erie. Capt. Kevin uses and will teach you about several different fishing techniques including drift fishing, jigging, spinning, trolling, and light tackle fishing.

Our trips target Walleye and Perch throughout the year. In late June, you can chase after Smallmouth Bass all the way up until November.

6 Hour Trip – Walleye
Captain Kevin is one of the best charter captains I’ve encountered. My boyfriend and I caught our walleye limit with several large fish. I rank this trip right up there with my Lake Michigan salmon and Galveston red snapper charter. The boat and tackle were first-rate, and the captain obviously enjoys his work and others who love fishing as he does. This lady fisher and her man will return from Texas to Port Clinton to visit Captain Kevin again!

Best Captain I’ve met in along time. Professional, knowledgeable, and immaculately clean. From top of the line gear and boat, to teaching my party all the techniques to be successful. You would be crazy not to fish with Captain Kevin!!!
