ABOUT US
“I am a full service guide on Lake St Clair and Lake Erie specializing in smallmouth bass. We also offer largemouth bass trips in the fall and walleye jigging trips in April and May.
I have been fishing these waters for 30 years recreationally, professionally and competitively. I will use the knowledge base I have accumulated to help you fish, and have a great time.
I run a 22’ 2018 Ranger 522d with a 250hp evinrude g2 HO, widely considered the best big water bass boat on the market. It’s incredibly stable, safe, spacious, dry and fast. It is loaded and tournament ready, featuring an Ultrex trolling motor with Spot Lock, 4 graphs (Garmin and Humminbird), Garmin livescope, hydrowave, 10’ power poles with drift paddles, two air suspension seats for added comfort on bumpy days, dual livewells with oxygenators in both, pedestal seats, built in coolers and ample storage space.
I only use high end equipment for my clients. All rods, reels, baits and line are from well known reputable companies such as Daiwa, Shimano, Lews, Duckett, Anglers Choice, Mega Jigs, Nishine Lure Works, Seaguar and Ygk.
My goal is for you to have a great time first and foremost and catch the fish of a lifetime on the best smallmouth fishery on earth.”

REVIEWS
“I had the pleasure of fishing with Mike last year during a bass tournament on Lake St. Clair. He was extremely knowledgeable on the fish and he knows that place like the back of his hand! He put us on a lot of quality fish so we spent most of our day with our rods bent! I gotta give credit to him for the foundation he practically built for what my own personal smallmouth knowledge has turned into! Whether you’re just wanting the experience of smallmouth fishing or you want to further your own knowledge, Mike is definitely the man to fish with!!!”

“Very knowledgeable and easy to get along with. Mike makes it a great day with good pointers and very easy instructions with a first time angler. Brings you where the fish are biting and makes for a very memorable day. I highly recommend his service and look forward to the next time out”

“l had the pleasure of spending a day out fishing with Mike @ South Shore Smallmouth Charters. While the weather wasn't the most cooperative, Mike put us on some quality largemouth and the action was steady throughout the day. When I wasn't reeling in a fish I was picking Mike's brain. His knowledge of fishing, the species and the river system were 2nd to none. From beginner to experienced professional, if you're looking to experience the South shore, give Mike a call!”
