Are you ready to set sail on an unforgettable adventure? Look no further than Captain Mark Szekely and his charter company, Gizzmo Charters, located on the beautiful Lake Erie. From the Captain:Having grown up in the vicinity of Lake Erie, I have always cherished the pleasure of fishing in its waters. As one of the trailblazers in establishing the charter business in this region, I played a pivotal role in introducing innovative techniques like planer boards and dipsey divers to the Ashtabula and Conneaut area. My expertise extends beyond the Conneaut/Ashtabula region to encompass the Western and Central Basins of Lake Erie, where I have honed my skills in both jig and drift fishing methods. Additionally, I have served as an ice fishing guide for numerous years, garnering recognition with featured articles in notable publications such as "The Cleveland Plain Dealer," "Walleye Magazine," and even "The Washington Post!" Our fishing techniques at Gizzmo Charters adapt to the changing seasons, ensuring an optimal experience on Lake Erie. In the early months of March, April, and May, we focus on jigging, while as we progress into late May and June, we transition to casting weight forward spinners. As the fish migrate to their summer habitats, we employ trolling methods using a variety of spoons and body baits like the renowned "Yo-zuri Crystal Minnows." For trolling, we utilize both braided "super lines" and stainless steel wire, selecting the appropriate option based on the target fish's depth. Boat detailsThe 38' Bertram Cruiser, originally constructed in 1981 and restored in 2006, boasts a remarkable blend of timeless design and modern updates. Equipped with 2 320HP Caterpillar Diesel engines, this vessel achieves a maximum cruising speed of 20 knots, ensuring a smooth and efficient journey. With a spacious interior and ample deck space, it can comfortably accommodate up to 6 guests, providing an enjoyable and memorable boating experience.
