South Coast Fishing Charters
A Lake Erie walleye charter in Bayham, Ontario, where groups regularly report catching their limit within a few hours with experienced local captains.
What visitors say
South Coast Fishing Charters operates on Lake Erie from Bayham, on Ontario's south coast, with several captains running trips, including Mike, Rick and Larry. Nearly all reviews are five stars, and the recurring theme is simple: groups go out for walleye and come back with their limit.
Reviewers describe reaching the limit in anywhere from an hour and a half to three hours, with the occasional rainbow trout as a bonus. One guest noted a captain with decades of experience on Erie, and another said the crew still put them on big fish after the fish finder lost its depth readings. The fish are cleaned and bagged for you, and the boats are described as clean with good gear.
It works well for families and first-timers. Grandparents, kids, visiting relatives and international students all appear in the reviews, and captains are described as patient with people who have never fished from a charter. One customer who had to cancel for a family emergency said their deposit was returned without fuss.
Most feedback is several years old, though recent trips continue to report full limits. One recent reviewer left a one-star rating alleging unfair treatment without describing what happened. If you are prone to seasickness, bring remedies: one guest had to cut a trip short on the water.
