Port Washington Fishing Charter Stories from Night Flight

Port Washington Fishing Charters - Matt's Story

Port Washington Fishing Charters

"I got a call from my buddy Kyle to go fishing, but neither of us were familiar with any Port Washington fishing charters. A quick Google search later, and we discovered Night Flight Charters. The website was easy to navigate, included helpful recommendations, and made the process easy.  Captain Bob Geiger ensured that the only thing we had to worry about was enjoying the gorgeous Port Washington sunrise, and getting ready for a great day of sportfishing as we headed over and boarded the boat. 


Several hours of talking and reeling in our fish ensued (Ben catching the biggest of all) and we had a great day off enjoying the weather and company.  One of the best parts was getting back and having all of the cleaning done for us so we could just take the fish fillets back, ready to be grilled.


Our captain really made the day by putting us in a fantastic spot where we could enjoy the weather and catch as much as we could. His level of not only knowledge, but friendly demeanor, ensured that our Port Washington fishing charter trip formed memories to last a lifetime." - Matt

Port Washington Fishing Charters - Rick's Story

Port Washington Fishing Charters

"The day before the fishing trip was all about packing and organizing. After looking up Port Washington fishing charters, my group of friends and I scheduled a fishing charter on the Night Flight. We packed our sunscreen, snacks, water bottles and other gear recommended to bring along. We traveled from Chicago, Illinois to Port Washington, Wisconsin early to avoid the traffic. We were at the boat dock ready to go by five am sharp. All four of us had purchased our two-day fishing license online with the Wisconsin DNR (Department of Natural Resources) the day before. Getting the fishing license ahead of time allowed us to leave the dock early and see the sunrise as we headed out to go fishing. 


As Captain Bob eased out of Port Washington harbor into Lake Michigan, the first mate Gus began inspecting the fishing poles. After 20 minutes of cruising, the boat slowed to a trolling speed and the lures were put in the water, ready to catch a fish. We all were looking forward to this fishing charter experience and what fish we might hook.


“Fish on!” Gus stated. The first mate quickly noticed the rod tip bending over as the fish pulled on the line. “Now ease the fish in and keep the rod tip up,” Gus told Charles. “Step back when I tell you, as the fish gets closer to the boat, to scoop him in the net.” Charles listened to every advice Gus stated as he hauled the fish closer towards the boat. After quite a fight, the fish was captured. Photos were taken and the lure was set back out to catch another fish.


Catching the fish was very enjoyable, yet all in all, the entire experience of boating in the open water, talking with friends and spending time together made the charter fishing trip with the Night Flight in Port Washington, Wisconsin a highlight of our summer!"  - Rick
