Here is your chance to chase Michigan's very own river monster! reaching lengths over 6 feet long and well over 100 lbs the Sturgeon proves to be one of the best fighting and most entertaining fish to catch. Sturgeon will frequently jump straight out of the water straight into the air and make explosive runs ripping 200 plus feet of line off the real in a matter of seconds! These fish are truly modern day dinosaurs and are a real treat to see up close and then after a recovery period they swim back into the depths! All sturgeon trips are strictly catch and release.

Trolling (multiple bodies)
Had an excellent experience fishing with Connor on Dream Catcher Charters. From top notch equipment, boat, and overall multiple species knowledge. Went trolling for walleye, caught a 3 man limit (18)of dandy size walleye in a short period of time, along with small mouth bass and a bonus 20lb Muskie. Super nice helpful guy glad to help any beginner. Definitely has a passion for what he does and it shows.

Whipping for Walleye
Fished multiple times with Captain Conner and his First Mate Cooper during the 2019 season. Sturgeon and walleye Whipping. I grew up on Lake St Clair and have fished my whole life. I took friends with me that have never caught Walleye and my Son who doesn’t fish at all (how did that happen?) on the different trips. Captain Connor was patient with everyone and everyone had a great time. He not only puts you on fish but explains how and where to catch fish. I have already booked for 2020 and am looking forward to another great season.
