Book a trip with Captain Tim Caruthers of T&V charters today and experience Lake Erie walleye fishing at it's best!

Since Lake Erie is considered the walleye capital of the world we have no doubt you will have an action packed and exciting day of Lake Erie walleye fishing. Lake Erie charter fishing consists of more than just great walleye fishing. Lake Erie perch fishing is also excellent in late summer and into fall. At this time we are catching jumbo perch and coming in with full limits frequently.

Being a full time Ohio Lake Erie fishing charter we are fishing 7 days a week. This allows us to keep on the fish and always know where they are.

Our season starts in the Western Basin of Lake Erie. This is where the walleye begin their natural migration. They start spawning between the Lake Erie Islands and Toledo. Here our walleye fishing charters consist of drifting while casting hair jigs and worm harnesses over the many reefs available.

As the water in the Western Basin warms up at the end of May and beginning of June the walleye will move east toward the Central Basin of Lake Erie. At this time we follow the walleye and begin to run trolling charters for them out of Geneva State Park Marina from June through September. On walleye fishing charters out of Geneva we will be catching a larger class of walleye consistently and also have the chance of catching a steelhead trout.

Starting in September we will begin more perch fishing charters where we are anchored and using perch rigs with minnows to pull in the jumbo perch. As long as the weather permits we will continue perch fishing charters into November.

At T&V Charters we do not want you feel like you are just a number. We want you to totally enjoy your Lake Erie fishing charter. We will teach you the best techniques and make sure to get you involved so you can have the best experience possible. We will do everything we can to make your trip enjoyable so you will come back and spend another great day of charter fishing with Captains Tim & Vicki at T&V Charters.
