Manhardtcharters

Manhardt Charters is a Wisconsin fishing charter company offering guided salmon and trout trips on Lake Michigan. Departing from Milwaukee and Racine, the company serves anglers and families throughout Southeast Wisconsin, including Kenosha and Oak Creek. Captain Rob Manhardt and the Lucky 7’s crew target king salmon, coho salmon, steelhead, and lake trout during the May-to-October season.

Trips are available in morning and afternoon options, with durations ranging from five to eight hours; schedules may vary with weather, fishing conditions, and other bookings. Charters accommodate up to six passengers and welcome both beginners and experienced anglers. The boat is equipped with fishing gear, modern electronics, and safety equipment, while the crew provides guidance throughout the trip. Guests should bring suitable clothing, soft-soled shoes, snacks, drinks, and the required Wisconsin fishing license and Great Lakes Salmon/Trout Stamp for anyone aged 16 or older. Anglers may keep legal catches, which the crew cleans and bags. Manhardt Charters also offers family-friendly outings focused on a safe, approachable day on the water.
