About The Captain

Captain Tom brings more than four decades of Lake Erie experience to every trip. Raised on his father’s boats, he fished out of Buffalo, Sturgeon Point, Cattaraugus Creek, Dunkirk, and Barcelona, targeting trophy Walleye, Steelhead, and Lake Trout across the Eastern Basin. In 2024, he earned his USCG Captain’s License and now shares his passion with anglers of all skill levels. Whether you’re looking to learn, improve, or simply enjoy a great day on the water, Tom is dedicated to teaching, having fun, and staying on the cutting edge of modern fishing techniques.
