Yes. Buy a 1-day fishing license online, but only purchase it the day before your trip. You’ll be told the day before whether to buy an Ontario license (required for everyone 18+ when fishing Ontario waters) or a Michigan license (required for everyone 17+ when fishing Michigan waters).
Wear proper clothing for the day (hat, jacket, sweatshirt) and bring rain gear. For footwear, use boat shoes, tennis shoes, or water shoes. Avoid flip-flops, work boots, and black-soled shoes.
Bring sunglasses, sunblock, food/snacks, drinks/water, any daily medications, and motion-sickness pills if needed (such as Dramamine). You can also bring a camera.
My Dad and I booked a 6-hour afternoon charter with Reel Therapy Sportfishing LLC to target the elusive musky on Lake St. Clair, and the trip exceeded our expectations! Although we were focused solely on musky, we also caught two smallmouth bass, two northern pike, and, best of all, three musky! Captain Kurt and his first mate (and wife), Corinne, worked together seamlessly. They had the rods rigged and in the water quickly, and it was obvious they knew every inch of Lake St. Clair. Between bites, they were great to talk with and made the entire experience enjoyable. One thing that really stood out was the care Captain Kurt took with every fish. After netting them, he respectfully placed them in the livewell to recover, allowed us to snap a few quick photos, and then returned them safely to the water. It was clear that both Kurt and Corinne genuinely care about the fishery and are passionate about putting their clients on quality fish. Their boat and equipment were top-notch, and their professionalism, knowledge, and teamwork made for an outstanding day on the water. We had an amazing time and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Reel Therapy Sportfishing LLC again. If you’re looking for an unforgettable day chasing trophy fish on Lake St. Clair, book with them—you won’t be disappointed!
