     When it comes to fishing the Great Lakes, size does matter and at 21 feet, Indiana's smallest (but fully inspected and licensed) charter fishing boat, Brother Nature is perfectly sized for small groups.

     If you need a boat sized for 5 or 6 anglers, contact one of the other fine members of Indiana's North Coast Charter Association. If you want to fish alone or with just 2 or 3 other friends or family, the Brother Nature is perfect for you to fish comfortably and affordably.

     Capt. Mike Schoonveld has decades of experience fishing for Lake Michigan trout and salmon and trailers Brother Nature to where the fish are biting best. In the spring expect to leave from one of Lake County's fine ports at Hammond Marina or East Chicago's Pastrick Marina. This is where Indiana's coho salmon and brown trout bite first in the spring and hang on near shore the longest as the water warms. Summer outings usually depart from Portage Marina in Porter County where access to the lake is via Burns Waterway. This is home to Indiana's famous Skamania steelhead and the shortest route to offshore areas where chinook (king) salmon and Lake Michigan lake trout are found
