Helping People Catch the Fish of Their Dreams Since 2019
The Fisher Brad Guide Service is a USCG Fishing Charter Captain that is licensed, insured, and open year-round. Whether it’s fishing from a boat, from shore, or on the ice you can expect an experience worth talking about. From catching the largest species of fish in Michigan—the Lake Sturgeon— to the most acrobatic fish—the Steelhead—The Fisher Brad Guide Service has you covered! My Favorite places for fishing charters are in Lexington, Port Sanilac, Harbor Beach, Port Huron, and Algonac Michigan.
I’ll bring everything you'll need to get angling, you just need a pair of polarized sunglasses, appropriate clothing, snacks, a chair, your Michigan fishing license, and a cooler. I supply the rods, reels, bait, and tackle. However, if you wish to use your combo you can as long as it matches the recommended setup and line action.
Our common targets include:
- Atlantic Salmon
- Steelhead
- Coho Salmon
- King Salmon
- Bass
- Lake Trout
- Walleye
- Burbot
- Northern Pike
- Musky
- Lake Sturgeon
To make it easy to prove your master angler tale, we capture most trips on camera for no additional cost, so you can easily share the moment with your family and friends.
From years of experience on the water, I learned the best places to fish in all different weather conditions even in 30 mile per hour winds and can take the mystery out of selecting lure and bait for your target fish.

How It Works
Every fishing charter service in Southeast Michigan does things a little differently. I like to keep it simple and make things fun! Here’s how you can book a trip with The Fisher Brad:
Just know you’ll be getting up early for morning trips and staying out late for nighttime trips! I am a jack of all trades offering boat fishing charters on my own boat, learning trips where i bring the fishing equipment and teach you how to fish off your own boat, Ice fishing trips, shore fishing trips, and wading fishing trips!
The cost of a 5 hour boat fishing charter trip is $500 for 1-2 people and $625 for three people. The Cost for a 7.5 hour boat fishing charter 1-2 people $700, 3 people $850. The cost of a 10 hour Fishing charter boat trip is $850 for 1-2 people and $1000 for three people. We can accommodate larger sized groups by having 3 clients in the boat fishing and setting the remainder of group to fish from shore. We simply then rotate the other members of the group into the boat when you decide (some groups base switching off by amount of fish caught or time, however you choose is fine). For boat trips having more than three anglers each additional angler can be added to boat trips to fish from shore for $125 extra per angler.
Learning trips on your own boat, shore fishing trips, wader fishing trips, and ice fishing trips varies based on the length selected. For a 5 hour trip, you can expect to pay $300 for one angler and $100 for each additional angler. For a 7.5 hour trip one person is $375, each additional angler is $125 extra. A 10 hour trip is $425 for one angler and $150 extra per additional angler.
