Fully licensed and insured in Wisconsin and Michigan. Stocked with a variety of the best gear, electronics, and equipment. We provide comfortable Onyx brand water-activated life vests (much more comfortable than your typical bulky PFDs). Our boats are additionally equipped with Type II PFDs as required by the US Coast Guard. Tiara yachts are made in Holland, MI and their quality and safety is top of their class.
License*: If you are a Wisconsin resident and have a Wisconsin resident fishing license, you must add a Great Lakes Salmon and Trout Stamp if you don't already have one (cost is $10.00). If you don’t have a Wisconsin fishing license or are a non-resident, you must obtain a license which includes Great Lakes Salmon and Trout Stamp. This can be done online. DNR REQURIES YOU CARRY A PAPER COPY OF YOUR FISHING LICENSE ON LAKE SUPERIOR. We would happily do this step for you if we could, but the DNR requires your personal information for licenses. This is applicable to fishing charters only.
*This is for charters out of Bayfield, WI only.
Dress: We recommend dressing in layers with sensible shoes (they may get wet on certain tours). A hat with brim, sunglasses, and sunscreen are recommended.
Gear: Provided are a couple pairs of binoculars for sightseeing, but you may bring your own if you prefer. We can not operate within 1/4 mile of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. We will be applying to do so during their next permitting period in October, 2023.
Processing your catch: If you plan to keep your catch, please remember to bring a cooler with ice to bring your fish home. Your cooler will remain at the marina. We will keep your fish on ice for you while you're aboard.
A deposit of 25% of the total is required at booking. We accept PayPal and can process debit and credit cards. Remainder of payment is due day of charter, non-cash payments require 3% processing fee.
Refunds of the deposit will be provided if the tour is cancelled at the Captain's discretion. Due to the nature of the rapidly changing weather on Lake Superior, it is sometimes not known until the day of departure what the temperament of the Gitche Gumee will be. We appreciate your flexibility as we attempt to accommodate your adventure while maintaining safety as our top priority.
If you have never been aboard a vessel on Lake Superior or have a history of sea-sickness or motion-sickness - we recommend that you consider discussing with your doctor if it is appropriate to take an over-the-counter anti-sea-sickness medicine at least 1 hour prior to boarding. Nothing ruins a beautiful day on the water like nausea and vomiting. Typically, once sea-sickness strikes, it does not go away (even with medicine) until well after you are ashore. Please check with your medical provider before taking any new medications.
We are sensitive to those with physical accommodation needs. Captain Savanna is a registered nurse, and while she cannot provide medical services or advice, we will try our best to accommodate all guests. Please be aware that in order to board our vessels, one must be able to lift their leg up and over the gunnel (about 12 inches). Some of our tours require a higher level of physical ability. Persons with mobility, hearing, speech, vision, or other accessibility needs are requested to contact us to discuss how we can safely and comfortably accommodate you.
Our guests have questions, and we like to have answers. Our tours visit historic areas full of wildlife and geologic wonder. We operate just outside (not within 1/4 mile from) the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore are happy to explain all we know or keep the tour quiet for a more tranquil experience. We encourage you to ask questions and offer your feedback so we can meet your specific expectations and be ever-improving.
The location or port from which we will be departing may change. Prices subject to change without notice.
