Lake Erie walleye charters are good all season long

The Lake Erie charter season begins as early as mid-April, weather permitting and runs through the end of October.  Limited pre-spawn action for big female Walleye precedes hot action of the reefs during April, with post spawn activity usually beginning around third week of April and going strong well into the middle to end of May. Expect walleye activity to continue and improve all summer long.

Lake Erie charters that are versatile

In both the early and late season lake Erie fishing charters, we like to add trolling to the arsenal of catching techniques.  Often times, trolling will out produce both size and numbers of the bigger, trophy-sized walleye, when drift techniques aren't as effective.  

Of course, Litehouse Charters leave this decision up to you on which method we use.  Many times, we start the day off drifting and finishing up trolling.  When most other boats have tough days, we usually still out produce others or limit out for the day.

  • The walleye fishing always picks up the first 2 weeks of May on Lake Erie, weather permitting.  Many trophy fish are caught during this period, and fishing will continue to get better as summer progressed.

  • July has proved to be the fastest fishing time of the year for Lake Erie walleye. Long boat rides could occur, but normally this is the best fishing.

  • Fishing in  August, you'll usually find the walleye fishing starting to slow down due to lack of rain and hot weather, but the fantastic perch fishing can save the trips when the walleye weren't biting well.

  • Expect good walleye fishing in September and October, usually landing 4 to 6 trophy fish per day, with limit or near limit coolers.  But as can be expected, rough weather limited the days we could get out for walleye.
