About Your Trip

Just north of Chicago, on the banks of Lake Michigan, lies Waukegan, IL. Join Captain Jim and set out from this quiet suburb for an action-packed adventure on Lake Michigan! You will have a chance to haul up massive Salmon and Lake Trout, which are not only fun to catch but taste delicious too. While trolling along the deep blue waters of the lake, wait for the scream of the reel and get ready to battle with your dinner!

Jim's 36’ Trojan sportfisher is spacious and luxurious, and offers a comfortable ride out to the prime fishing grounds. She is powered by twin diesel engines with a total of 660 horsepower, so you'll be out there in no time. She also comes equipped with an ice box to store your catch until Captain Jim can clean and fillet it at the end of the day.

Everything you need for an amazing day on the water is provided. Jim brings all equipment including rods, reels, bait, tackle, and life jackets. If you want to bring food and drinks, you’re more than welcome to. A half day on the water can feel like a long time, and you don’t want to be hungry! You should also be prepared with appropriate clothing and sun protection. Be sure to check the weather reports before your journey so you know what to wear!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is the home of over 1500 Damn Good fishing and hunting guides. Our mission is to unlock the outdoors for everyone, and we want to help you get out there through our no-hassle online booking experience and our team of outdoors experts.
We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.
Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!
In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.
Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.
Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
