Coach's Angle Charters


Are you wondering “Why Coach’s Angle”?

Well, what sets us apart from the competition are a few simple things:

#1. When you book the Coach you fish with the Coach–not passed on to someone else.

#2. We do not overfish our areas and we are constantly locating new fish.

#3. We try to schedule you at the time of year that maximizes your desired fishing style (jerkbait, finesse, topwater, etc.).

#4. We use only high quality tackle from local Michigan tackle companies that know how to make lures that catch fish on Michigan’s ultra clear waters as well as top national brands as needed.

#5. We customize each days fishing hours to take into consideration the weather forecast and your schedule.

#6. We welcome ALL skill levels from first timers to retired national pros .

#7. We also offer family discounts as well as multiple-day discounts.

If you have additional questions, talk to Coach by texting, calling or emailing.

An old friend from Indiana and a new friend with Indiana ties set out for Day Two of midsummer smallmouth fishing. As you know from yesterday’s post Day One was unbelievably good.
And Day Two did not disappoint as a 5.96 lber came on board with one other over 5 and three others over 4. And we had numbers again with personal bests each day!
Fun stuff…

What scale do you use ?

Day One of a two-day smallmouth trip couldn’t have gone much better. Fifty or so smallies were caught with biggest weighing 5.60 lbs. Several others topped 4 lbs.
New areas really paid off today and we’re looking forward to Day Two.

Thats some quantity with quality!

New friends endured east, south, west and northwest winds and then rain. The fish continued to cooperate throughout our 4 hours. Very good numbers and, as you can see, quality smallmouth!
I lucked out with good fishermen again…

A four hour morning trip got us between 25 and 30 hookups. The smallies were certainly very willing to accept our offerings. See MoreSee Less

The full moon has them aggressive…
Big numbers (I mean really big numbers) of quality fish brought onboard.
Our fishermen featured here kept our hot streak going.
Good weather, more good fish and another good time.

What were the baits we were using? Can't find them online anywhere

What a great fishing trip and learning experience. Thanks Coach you were awesome

Very experienced family of bass fishermen get a taste of NW Michigan smallmouth.
Big numbers as we approach our favorite time of the month…
(Sorry for not being able to accommodate the flood of requests to fish this month. A few dates are available for next month.)
