The fishing season is over and as always we are so very grateful to 377 fishermen who fished with us..
Next season is looking really good based on the ODNR net surveys that show a whole new class of walleye about ready to go home with you next season… 1147 fish went to freezers around the country. 34 fish Ohio trophies (28” or better)
9 at 30+.. 31.1” biggest @10.8 #..
countless sheepshead and 8-13” eyes.

This past season saw a huge increase in the amount of giant channel catfish being caught.. Our catfishing has really taken off with 83 fish Ohio trophies caught this year. (26”or more)..
We saw 56 fish over 30”or better with 35” the biggest.
26.4 # was the heaviest.
Overall my fishermen boat 767 fish of every shape and size..

Weather was a huge factor this season… but that’s to be expected with the western basin of Lake Erie as our playground.. good amount of rainy days,big wind days, and new this year smoke from Canada…. clients can’t breath in that.. lol crazy season..
Finally we are proud of
Seventh straight Anglers Choice Award. This is awarded by Fishing Booker
where most of you and I have met over the years.

Please feel free to call or text for availability next season..

Till we see you again
Wishing all of you and safe and healthy winter..

It’s been a while since we have posted updates.
We have rounded the corner and heading for home..
Well not really just yet..
Conditions are always changing on beautiful Lake Erie this time of the year.
Mother Erie has brought heavy winds most notably from the north and east.
This is when the lake might turn over especially in the western basin. This brings changes to the water temps as bottom comes to the top and top to bottom. With this sea w**d and all sort of debris from the bottom make its way to the top. This also creates hypoxia ( poor oxygen levels) which very much affects the fish and where they go. This is temporary and necessary to keep the waters healthy and clean.
Perch have started to show up here and there. Once stable weather in the fall occurs the water temps drop and the perch bite will improve. We have been getting them but not the numbers we would like to see. We are getting there.
Thank goodness the cat bite has been extra awesome lately. Many of the past 2+ weeks we have moved walleye trips to cats as the eyes have moved well east thru August and 1st part of September. They are already heading back as catch rates are improving.
We will be pulling the boats out for the season after the 3rd weekend in September.
If you would like to get out again pls do give me a call and we can find a date that works for you…
Conditions change often both good and ugh..
These next 2 weeks will be very interesting as fall fishing can really fire up quickly.
Thank you to all of the past 3 weeks of clients who have fished with us.

Hello all of our FB Friends and Fishermen/Women..
Summer is slipping by much to fast for me..this is the time of year when waters are at there warmest and it becomes a constant game of adjustments on how and where we fish.. Of course mother Erie has a lot to say
about that. There could very well be a perch bite ALERT that I’ll post here .. they are biting but 20 miles well west of us. They are moving this way tho. Walleye bite is fair to good depending on weather but they are in deep well off shore waters. We have and will make those runs as weather allows.
Catfish bite is always good to great. We have been doing very well this last 2 weeks especially for those youngsters who are getting in a fishing trip before school starts.
I will post here very soon if we will start perch runs..
Stay tuned on that.
Big thank you to all of our fishermen from the last two weeks.. pics of big Cats and big Eyes..

Hello All..time for an update.
These past 2 weeks of fishing has produced good to poor results. No question about it hot summer days warm the western basins waters up quickly. We have been around 79.5-82.5 depending on location.
Walleye and other fish cannot breath well in warm waters so off they go to deeper colder waters.
So we follow them to the Canadian border and head east. Some of the problems with that is the Lake Erie flu kicks in when so far off shore. I would like to thank the last 2weeks of crews we took out on the waters.
John and his 10yr old daughter dealt with big cats on their trip including a fish Ohio 35” 22.4 # channel cat..
Dr.Nate and his family put over 20 in the boat including 4 fish Ohio trophies.
Tracy and Beth sisters who love to fish put 7 nice eyes in there freezer.. Rudy Lara and his crew took 14 fish home in tough fishing conditions.
Peter Norris and his crew put away over 25 catfish on their afternoon trip…Michael Bennett and his family enjoyed some walleye fishing taking home a fish dinner. Longtime clients
Rachel Monthgomery and her family pounded out
13 go home fish during there afternoon trip. Rounding out this past two weeks with a visit from Dave Robinson and son Max, really rough waters made there trip tough but brought enough eyes (5) in to take home a great big fish fry.

I am truly grateful to all of the above clients and I look forward to the 2nd half of the season with those who are scheduled to fish thru September.
As the years go by, our service has really grown, and I am thankful to all of you who Fish with us each and every year.
If you are considering fishing with us in the 2027 season, please do reach out to me as soon as you have an idea of when you would like to fish. As of now I have five days left in June 2027.. we will run afternoon trips 3 days a week only in June. Walleye fishing is still very good and next season looks like another outstanding year.
The pics attached are from the past 2 weeks.
I am hearing that just maybe we will have a perch bite this year…as soon as I know for sure I will post it immediately.

Always the best to you

As we celebrate the Fourth of July, Fishing Mission extends warm wishes to our dedicated fishermen and fisherwomen for a day that's bursting with excitement! With Mother Nature fully embracing summer, fishing has reached new heights - those walleyes are biting like never before. We're honored you've chosen Fishing Mission charters to invest your time and resources. Take a look at the recent fish pics - a testament to the incredible experiences we've shared. Huge appreciation to our latest groups, including the Minnesotans who traveled overnight to reel in their limits, and the Nebraskans who braved the unpredictable skies on day one and returned triumphant on day two. Our Iowa crew demonstrated their fishing prowess, filling their limits and departing with smiles. Betsy and Mike from Coshocton, Ohio, made impressive catches, as did our firefighter friends Dave, Beth, and Kenton from Chillicothe, Ohio. Brothers Brian and Dakota receive special mention, while Brothers Gavin and Haden landed another massive walleye. Lori Molnar, Jerry, Luke, and DJ all hooked big ones this week. Dino Mastantuono's crew delivered outstanding results, and Fred Krase's group enjoyed an unforgettable experience with family and friends. This morning's crew from Indiana, comprising Jerry Profitt, Nicki, Micah, and Edward, also caught impressive fish.
Ed Smith and wife Patty left with a huge load of fish..
also longtime clients
Jenny and Bill Burchette and friend were worn out after reeling in full limits of big walleyes. As we take a brief break to observe the holiday, maintain our boat, and prepare for the season's second half, we're reminded that our hard work is driven by the joy of creating lasting memories with you.
Finally for the sixth straight time we have been awarded the prestigious Anglers Choice Award, we work really hard to be the best on Lake Erie.!
Btw the big bird in the pictures are of a white egret
that likes to be in the pictures of our fishermen.
His name is  Peabody
and he waits daily for me to return to dock each day knowing he will get the fish scraps. He is quite comical and follows me all over the park.

She’s at again.. Mother Erie is showing off with big winds big rains big light shows.
We have finally found outstanding fishing pulling big fish and full man limits.
This is the LAST thing we need right now with the  barometer falling and unstable weather may cause these fish to scatter.
The following pics are from the last 9 days of fishing.

Sensei Ron Smith and his crew of MMA fighters including rising star

Thanks to my Cincinnati police officers who arrested 18 walleyes.. thanks goes to my crew of 3 young men from canton area as we were part of a multi boat charter 
trip Jessie and his 2 brothers. Chuck and his 2 buddies from Michigan stopped in for a how to fish eyes on Erie trip.

Mother Nature has shut down Lake Erie with big winds and rains, so let's catch up. Five days of fishing with the folks from Maine were great. They were very prepared to learn how to catch fish on Erie, and each day was a different experience on the water. We spent three days in deep water on the Canadian border and two days on the bay, taking daily limits. The crew was outstanding, and I look forward to their return next season. Running a double trip brought in Joe and Charlie Powell. Longtime customers on my boat also found great success in deep water. My longtime clients from Cincinnati loaded in for a two-day trip, but again, weather was an issue on day one. On day two, last Sunday, they took over the boat, as always, and caught beautiful walleye to take home. On this trip, they brought along soon-to-be Dr. Brett, who is learning how to fish for walleye. Doc caught the biggest walleye and a very large smallmouth buffalo sucker – I've never seen a fish like that. It was around 35 inches and well into 20-plus pounds, a very unusual fish. Terry, his wife Debbie, and son Garrett arrived from Missouri for a three-day trip. This veteran crew handled bent rods on and running planner boards well and controlled the chaos on the boat when four to six rods were loaded with big fish. Finally, we ended with a crew from Michigan. They had a great start, but it got rough as the winds started blowing, making our target fish hard to find. It didn't help that I got some hooks in my hand. Still, they loaded their freezers with 14 really nice fish. We're back on the water every day unless the weather says otherwise. I'll continue to update as I can throughout the month. The pictures are in no particular order. As always, I thank you all for visiting. Always fishing hard, Captain Paul Schill.

It has been a very eventful past 2 weeks. We have fished every day and had some double trips. We have seen fishermen from Maine, Iowa, and all over Ohio. All of the past fishermen had to work very hard for each fish. A few of those past days, fishing was slow, and the days were long to get it done. Attached are some pictures of our past trips. Thank you.
