Spring Fishing in Door County is Here – Walleye, Smallmouth, and Salmon Charters Now Booking
Spring fishing in Door County, Wisconsin is finally here, and the bite is already heating up. If you’re searching for Door County fishing charters, walleye fishing Green Bay, or spring fishing trips in Sturgeon Bay, now is the time to get on the water.
Right now in April, we are focused on walleye fishing on the Bay of Green Bay, targeting pre-spawn fish. This is one of the best times of the year to catch some of the biggest walleyes of the season. These fish are aggressive, feeding heavily, and set up perfectly for casting presentations.
We are currently running trips in Oconto, Green Bay, Sturgeon Bay, and northern Door County, including Fish Creek, Egg Harbor, and Sister Bay. This pre-spawn walleye bite is hands-on, fun, and perfect for anglers who want an active fishing experience rather than just trolling.
As we move toward the end of April, we begin transitioning into our Door County smallmouth bass fishing trips. Spring smallmouth fishing in areas like Sturgeon Bay, Egg Harbor, Fish Creek, Ephraim, and Sister Bay is some of the best fishing you’ll find anywhere in Wisconsin. These fish move shallow, are extremely aggressive, and offer an exciting casting bite with hard fights and big numbers.
All of our spring trips are primarily casting-focused fishing charters, which makes them perfect for anglers who want a more hands-on experience. Whether you’re an experienced angler or bringing your family along, spring is one of the best times to book a trip in Door County.
