The Jodi Lee

The Jodi Lee is a 28' Marinette, with twin inboard engines and a kicker for those slower trolling spots. She is maintained to the very highest of standards by Captain Mitch Mattson, a lifelong fisherman of Lake Superior and always in excellent condition. (Her brightwork and woodwork shine, too!)

The Jodi Lee

The Jodi Lee, sporting four electric down riggers, with more tackle than the local hardware, is fully equipped with a GPS (Global Positioning System), Chart Plotter, Radar, Sonar Detectors, and Loran systems, which also maintains records of key locations for excellent fishing holes. We'll provide everything you need for a fantastic fishing adventure, but you also can bring your lucky fishing pole and tackle along, if you wish, as well as plot our course for the day. (We've jotted down a few things on the checklist of things to bring on my fishing trip with Shelter Bay Charter's).

The Jodi Lee is certified safe by the United States Coast Guard, meets all regulation requirements, and is fully equipped with life vests, fire safety equipment, and minor medical emergency kits for our guests.

Shelter Bay Charter's fishing boat is outfitted with a head (restroom) and a cabin that comfortably accommodates up to six people. If the weather turns for the worst, the back deck of the boat can be easily covered to protect you from the wind and rain.

We encourage you to bring warm clothes along as well. (See what to bring for a fishing trip on Lake Superior).

When you know your vacation date, just give us a call to make your reservation. Summer dates are already going fast, so we would suggest not waiting too long.

Lake trout is fished all the time, but Salmon depends upon the time of year. (See best times to fish).

We also provide chartering for other types of fishing, such as Walleye, and for tours to and around Grand Island, to the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore (Miner's Castle), and many other attractions and historical places.

Munising Fire Works

If you have never watched Munising's fireworks from a boat, you haven't experienced their full impact! You can literally hear the fireworks roll off of the cliffs surrounding Munising bay like a 100 gun salute. Read about Captain Mitch Mattson boat trips out into the bay to watch the fireworks...
