Welcome to Vision Quest Sport Fishing

Why Vision Quest Sport Fishing Charters?
First, I would like to thank you for taking time to read this and considering Vision Quest as your charter boat choice.
Secondly, let me brief you on our fish catching/customer philosophy. Catching fish is like any other job in life, there are those who excel and those who don’t in their fields. We excel because of a self determination to be the best in our line of work. The effort given by the Captains and crew to produce fish day in and day out is one of 100% effort. Backed by the 40 plus years of combined experience, knowledge and equipment, fish catching becomes easier for us. This in turn benefits you, the customer as the recipient of these efforts. The customer, however, comes first. We try to see that all customers are comfortable, safe, and enjoy themselves. Once we feel conditions are safe and customers are comfortable, “we go to work” to try to catch them the most fish we can within that given period of time. That is what you, the customer, are paying for.
Thirdly, let me brief you on our credentials. The Vision Quest is owned and operated by myself, a fully insured and licensed captain with over 28 years of Great Lake water experience. Captain Mike Hinkel, another proven and successful Captain operates one of the boats on a part time basis as well. We are on the field staffs of national tackle mfg. companies such as Ridge Back Rattler, DAVES Lures (former Storm Lures of Norman Oklahoma), BIG JON Power Sports Equipment, DREAMWEAVER Lures, GAMMA Fishing Lines and A-TOM-MIK Flies. Some of the Quests highlights over the years include trolling up a six man limit of walleyes in two hours (36), boating (138) smallmouth bass in four hours of trolling, landing (2,897) fish in (89) trips, hooking up (90) and landing (65) lake trout on Lake Erie in nine hours, hooking up (73) and landing (35) salmon & trout in 6 hours. Team Vision Quest has also won and placed in numerous Great Lakes Fishing Tournaments in Pennsylvania, New York and Canada. Since 2006, we have placed in the top 10 over 30 times which is a PROVEN testament to our level of competitiveness and skill.
Thanks again for considering Vision Quest charters, hope to hear from you…---Captain Pete Alex
Booking That Charter
Before deciding on that preferred date, keep two things in mind. The first thing is that weekends are the preferred – the first to go dates and of course, limited. Secondly, each specie has a particular time when the fishing is better. With this in mind, one should book a charter in advance, a year is not too far.
When choosing a date, a deposit of $150.00 will reserve this date. This deposit is refundable upon bad weather or an extreme circumstance. A two week cancellation notice is the least notice that is accepted unless of course the weather is bad.
You will be responsible for bringing the proper clothing, footwear, food, beverage, etc. Upon request, food and beverage can be provided at a reasonable cost along with taxidermy service and videotaping.
Upon receipt of your deposit, a confirmation letter & map is sent about one month prior informing you of the date, time of departure, and meeting location of your charter. By planning ahead, you’ll improve your chances for a preferred date and successful outing.
If tournament fishing excites you, there are limited days available for these events. The Vision Quest visits several different Ports over the season to compete in salmon & trout tournaments. Call Captain Pete for more details if interested.
