Why Choose Our Lake Erie Charter Boats?

More Room to Fish

One of the biggest advantages of our Island Hopper Lake Erie fishing charter boats is space.

With a wide 12-foot beam, our Island Hoppers provide considerably more fishing room than many traditional 30-foot charter boats. That additional space makes a noticeable difference when several anglers are fishing together.

There is more room to move, more room for equipment and more room to enjoy your day on Lake Erie without feeling crowded.

Built for Lake Erie

Island Hoppers have earned an excellent reputation as commercial vessels because of their combination of stability, fishing space, comfort and seaworthiness.

Our boats are equipped specifically for Lake Erie charter fishing, making them an excellent choice for walleye, yellow perch and smallmouth bass trips departing from the Port Clinton area.

Fully Equipped for Your Fishing Trip

Our Lake Erie charter boats are equipped with modern marine electronics and the fishing equipment needed for a successful day on the water.

Equipment includes GPS navigation, sonar, depth finders, fish-finding electronics, marine communications and required safety equipment.

Quality fishing equipment is supplied for your charter at no additional charge, and padded gunnels help make a full day of Lake Erie fishing more comfortable.


U.S. Coast Guard Inspected Lake Erie Charter Boats

One of the features that separates Coe Vanna Charters from many Lake Erie fishing charters is our ability to accommodate larger groups aboard a single vessel.

Most traditional charter boats are limited to six passengers. Coe Vanna operates U.S. Coast Guard inspected and certified charter boats that can legally accommodate larger groups.

That means your family, group of friends, company outing or other gathering may be able to stay together aboard one Lake Erie charter boat rather than splitting everyone between multiple boats.

Coe Vanna IV

The Coe Vanna IV is a 30-foot U.S. Coast Guard inspected Island Hopper featuring an exceptionally spacious 12-foot beam.

The vessel is certified to carry up to 12 passengers for cruising, while approximately 8 anglers is an ideal number for fishing comfortably.

Its wide deck and open fishing area make the Coe Vanna IV particularly well suited for larger groups and can make moving around the boat easier for older passengers and individuals with limited mobility.


Lake Erie Fishing Charters for Families, Friends & Groups

Whether you're bringing six anglers or organizing a larger group, our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable and enjoyable Lake Erie fishing experience.

Our spacious charter boats are especially popular for:
