Last one I fished over there with was Angel Eyes Charters, and that guy was great.
Don't have a phone number.
Another one we used was Tibbles Marina and they were O.K. too.
These were both at Port Clinton.
Lots of good charters over there.

Right now we are looking at boytim charters out of marblehead they take care of any customs issues if we go into canadien waters which is a bonus and they said they would provide the equipment which means all we have to bring is beer, worms and other basic necessities but this way we wont be cramped by having 12 fishiing poles in the vehicle

I've been up there in May and June, both were good fishing. Seems like some of the nasty, cooler weather is the best. The clear skys and calm conditions were not nearly as productive.
I'm not too crazy about big water charter boat fishing anymore, as I prefer to do it myself in my own boat, etc., however a trip to Lake Erie is the average guys best shot at catching a mess of walleye. We limited out most trips, which was six fish apiece, plus the guides six.
You basically just drift and drag bottom with a night crawler rigged up on an Erie Dearie or similar lure. The Hildebrandt Wallbanger and Nugget are good baits too. Get some heavy ones, because at a fast drift the light weight ones won't get down to the bottom.
Don't be surprised if one of your crew nails a five or six pounder. Twoor three pound is about average, but the larger ones are not unusual.
Did a charter trip one time on Lake Saint Claire, Michigan one time and they fished completely different. Trolled the whole time dragging Rapala type plugs and crank baits on planer boards. Got ourlimit there too,but they weren't as big as the Lake Erie fish.
