I woke up Saturday morning for a lake Erie walleye charter. It was 4:30 am and noticed my flag was blowing sideways from the west. I headed downstairs to track weather and winds. The wind was coming from west at 17 mph with gusts to 20. Also, on my mind, was the huge mayfly hatch which can slow the bite down as well.
I called Carly and Mark (repeat customers) and relayed that the lake was rough with 2 to 4 footers already and building. I suggested that they may want to cancel & reschedule for another day. I thought I would be going back to bed but Mark said if at all possible they would like to give it a try because their friend was in from California just for the charter. I told him I had to hold off and stay on the side of safety but I would check back with him if anything changed. I headed down to the lake and it seemed fish-able for me but pretty choppy to take customers. However, it was going to be a beautiful sunny day with no storms in the forecast.
I called Mark back and recommended that we call it off due to the chop. Mark really wanted to give it a try knowing that if it wasn’t good we could turn around and come back. Okay, let’s give it a go! We got out and set up to go with the sizable waves. It was rough one but Noah’s Ark managed 15 keepers and 50 throwbacks in about 5 hours of fishing. It turned out to be a thrilling day and the crew was awesome setting lines. netting fish, freeing tangles and just having a blast! BETTER TO BE LUCKY THAN GOOD
- David BaringerCaptain Moses and Noah’s Ark is the best walleye and perch charter boat on Erie. Very professional and knows the lake better than the back of his hand. Reasonable prices and great teacher of novice anglers and seasoned fishing vets alike.
- James LiuMy 86 y.o dad and my son have had wonderful and memorable fishing trips with Captain Yonkers and his first mate (son) each year. We look forward to it and it has become an annual tradition as part of our Fourth of July Liu Family Reunion. Moreover we catch the big walleyes!
- Laurie H.Both times my husband, friends and I went fishing with Captain Moses, we limited out! I would characterize both outings as highlights of our summer. Captain Moses knows all the hot spots, and is so friendly and accommodating. He genuinely wants everyone to have a fabulous time and that really comes across. A Noah’s Ark charter is a fabulous way to spend a beautiful summer day on Lake Erie.
- Bill P.If you want a “fishing trip” there are a lot of Charter outfits to choose from. If you want a “fishing experience” go with Captain Moses at Noah’s Ark Charters. You will not only catch fish on a first rate boat with the best captain on the lake but you will walk away with a new friend.
- Mike DeMossCapt. Moses is the best on Lake Erie! We have booked a number of trips and caught a ton of fish every time. Even when conditions were not ideal Capt. Moses works really hard to make sure you catch fish and have a great time! I would recommend Noah’s Ark Charters to anyone looking to catch fish.
- Russell H.You are the greatest captain of the high seas. You make my mom’s annual fishing trip the most enjoyable experience due to the death of my dad and having to give up the family fishing boat.
- Richard B.The nicest Captain on Lake Erie. No one better at finding the perch. Years of success fishing the waters of Lorain, Ohio for perch and walleye. Beautiful boat, always feel comfortable and safe when aboard. Captain Moses makes everyone feel like a part of his family. Wonderful location in a beautiful harbor with quick access to Lake Erie.
- Nate TaylorFishing on Noah’s Ark is so much more than fishing, it’s an experience. Captain Moses is one of the most knowledgeable and experienced captain’s on Lake Erie. His number one priority is everyone’s safety and that everyone has the best possible time they can have. He cares deeply about everyone who goes on his boat. If you catch 1 fish or 50 fish, one thing is for sure – you are going to have a blast. If you want an experience that is top notch from start to finish – Noah’s Ark is your boat and Captain Moses is your guy.
- Bob LeaI’ve had the pleasure of being on a number of fishing charters using Noah’s Ark Charters. If you are looking for a Great fishing experience I’d strongly recommend Captain Moses and his Charter Services. He has a passion for fishing and is extremely knowledgeable. Nobody can guarantee limiting out or a good fishing day but Captain Moses increases your chances greatly. When others strike out he seems to have a productive day. For me, Noah’s Ark Charters is the best choice out there!
