Captain Glenn Spaulding of Summer Skool Sportfishing on Saturday, August took us out for a full day of fishing on Lake Michigan.

Being out on Lake Michigan with a seasoned captain made the difference. The boat was set up well for fishing, with plenty of rod holders and deck space for moving around. We had room to spread out, and the three of us could work different angles without getting in each other's way. The morning was productive, and there was a nice rhythm to the day once we found where the fish were holding.
What stood out most was how approachable the whole experience felt. Captain Glenn kept things low-pressure while still being focused on putting us on fish. The setting felt authentic - not overly polished, just straightforward fishing on a working charter boat. We got to participate at whatever level felt comfortable, and that made it engaging for everyone on deck.
Lake Michigan offers a dynamic fishing environment, and Whitehall is well-positioned to access some solid productive water. The conditions that day were cooperative, with manageable waves and decent visibility. Being on the boat itself felt purposeful - you're not just floating, you're actively fishing with someone who knows the lake. There's a focus and intent to the work that keeps you engaged throughout the day.
The surrounding water is clean and open, giving you that sense of being out there on a real body of water. Lake Michigan has its own character, with the deeper drop-offs and structure that hold fish. As we worked different areas, it became clear why Captain Glenn chose the spots he did. Local knowledge like that is hard to replicate on your own, and it's exactly what a charter provides.
The group dynamic worked well too. Three people on a fishing charter means you're close enough to share the experience and help each other out, but spread out enough that it never feels cramped. We could see what was working for each person and adjust accordingly. That kind of natural back-and-forth is part of what makes a charter day memorable.
