Rich is a phenomenal Captain! This was our first charter with Stellar Charters and everyone had a great time. Rich... knows where to go to catch fish and we came back with some nice Coho Salmon, Steelheads and Lake Trout. We’ve already decided to make this a summer tradition and we’re looking forward to Rich taking us out again next summer!read more

Just did our maiden tour this week. 3 adults and 2 young men. We had a pretty good time. We did have one in our crew... that decided she couldn't quite handle the motion of the boat and held pretty tight to the bottom of the boat most of the day....the next morning she took a larger dosage of Dramamine and did much better. We did two half days. One afternoon and one morning. Both times we netted 8 nice size fish with a variety of kinds. Lakers, Steelhead, Coho, Kings..... We had a great time. We'll probably do it again next year, but I imagine we'll just do either a morning or an afternoon.... 6 hours on the boat is more than enough for any of us, I can't imagine a whole day out on the water. That wouldn't be for me. You have to admire the capt's though...they do that day in and day out! Thank you Capt Rich and Blake!read more

I have fished with Rich for many years! No matter what time of year we have always caught fish! There never can be a... guarantee but Rich goes out of his way to do whatever he can to make sure you get some fish and more importantly enjoy your day! He is extremely accommodating,enjoyable and makes time to get to know his clients which is why I suspect he has a lot of repeat business. Just today I brought out some clients of mine who he had not seen in 2 years yet still remembered them and specifics of our last trip! Always a pleasure to spend time with him. Trust me. If you go out once with him. You will always go back. He is that good!read more

Our experience was just fantastic and we cannot thank Lee and Craig enough. My father, brother, and I wanted to take a... trip like this for quite sometime and Stellar Charters certainly didn’t disappoint. Our crew, Lee and Craig, were very personable, helpful, and knowledgeable in just about every way you can imagine. My dad had experienced a minor health issue right before we arrived, but Lee and Craig went above and beyond to make sure his experience was a memorable one despite some of the challenges he faced. Their efforts meant more to us than they realized and it was certainly appreciated. They continuously looked to change things up whenever the fish stopped biting but we still came home with a ton of fish and memories to last a lifetime. I definitely recommend this charter company to anyone wanting to experience fishing on Lake Michigan. We definitely would love to do it again in the very near future.read more

Had a great time with Capt Dave over the weekend. This was my family's first time Salmon fishing. We fell a few short... from limiting but we had 6 people and missed a few. None of that was the Capt's fault. It was a bit slow at times but Capt Dave never gave up and tried his best to find us more fish. We weren't even off the boat yet and the family was already talking about booking another trip to come back soon. Looking forward for round 2.read more

I wasn’t looking for the biggest catch or most fish. Simply a memorable day spent with my son who is on active military... duty. I got that and more. Capt. Rich is personable, friendly, and after a few minutes it seems like you’ve known him forever. The weather wasn’t the best and the night before it looked like we weren’t going to make it out. Traveling from Texas to Kenosha, Capt. Rich understood how important the trip was to us and didn’t hesitate to give it his best. We ended up with our limit, plenty of laughs, stories and, the promise to come back next year and do it again. I’ve fished from south to north and east to west. Capt. Rich is one of the best. I’d recommend his charter service to everyone.read more

I first went fishing with Capt. Rich around 7 years ago. Absolute blast! Since it had been awhile, I decided to go... again with some friends and colleagues this past weekend. Once again, great time! Capt. Blake was constantly working to make our experience wonderful. Fish weren't hitting this early in the year but that is NO fault of Blake's. Still pulled in 11 of 'em and he cleaned and prepped them like a PRO! Capt. Rich dropped by a couple of times to make sure we were all having a good time. So far I have fished with two of the Capt's and both were so accommodating. We had such a good time, we booked another charter for July while we were out fishing. Thank you all so much for everything and we will see you in July for some Salmon!!!!read more

This was my first Charter in a long time, and my first on Lake Michigan. I couldn't have had a better time! I joined a... group of 18 who most had been going with Rich and crew for the past 10 years and Iit didn't take long to figure out why they keep going back. His first and foremost concern is safety, but that doesn't stop him from showing a great outting. Thanks Rich! Can't wait for next time!read more

I’ve fished with Stellar Charters for over a dozen years. As Charter Captains go, Rich is one of the best. He is... very professional, runs a clean- safe boat, always quick with a smile, and makes the trip a genuinely fun experience. He know his business and the lake very well. I would recommend him to anyone looking for good fishing, be it a corporate outing or family trip to go with Stellar Charters on southern Lake Michigan. You will enjoy the day.read more
