Sand Point Charters

With no ice on Lake Superior to go after Splake in Copper Harbor or Lake Trout on Keweenaw Bay I’m just looking forward to charter fishing this summer. In the meantime, I’ll be cruising (and hopefully fishing) down the East coast from North Carolina to Florida aboard the Yooper Too. I’ll be back in the […]

Home for Christmas and had some fun Family and games then had to run. To north Dakota to see a boat Lakes are frozen so not afloat. The fever was high but it’s just an expression I’m really not sick, they say, “an obsession.” A one-track mind’s not all that bad It’s actually quite normal, […]

I’ve had a great winter aboard my Yooper Too (32 foot Nordic Tug trawler) and soon getting back to fishing here at home. Can’t wait to launch the boats and get out there! There’s a little work to do before we launch, in fact there’s still ice on Lac La Belle Here’s my most memorable […]

No. Well , the answer is, I’ve been busy preparing, repairing and cruising on my 38 foot Marine Trader, […]

As a charter captain who often targets lake trout in the Keweenaw, I have a deep interest (pun intended) in data about them… where they go, what they like, where and how they spawn and their migration patterns. (I certainly have as much interest in salmon – coho and kings – as well as steel […]
