Come fish out of the wonderful port of Ludington, Michigan with Captain Jon Kolehouse aboard the "HATTRICK". A fully furnished and equipped sport fishing vessel, designed to catch fish period. Bring your family, friends, or corporate group for a day or two of fishing aboard the "HATTRICK".

Why fish with us?
Fish with a captain that made his living catching fish since 1992. We not only charter on Lake Michigan, we also operate Rivers Bend Guide Service.
Logging 200 days a year on the rivers.
Your captain is fully U.S.C.G. licensed and insured.

Ludington is the top producing port on Lake Michigan as rated by the MDNR.

Charter with a captain that fishes year round, 365 days a year! Your captain makes a living putting fish in the boat...whether taking a silver king 80 foot down off a rigger, a 20" brown on a size 16 dry fly, or a chrome bullet fall run steelhead on a dead drifted hex nymph...this guy lives to fish (no part time captain here)! We get people into fish long before many people are even thinking of getting out and long after most people have hung up their rods for the season.
