10point Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 Are there any boats that you can just show up to and fish? My wife is from London and we are coming up for a week in August and one of my buddies in Ohio told me that he had gone out on a big boat where they just take whoever shows up in the morning. Is there anything like that close to London or is just the charters were you need 5 or so guys?
steve_paul Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 Are you looking for a private charter or to ride on one of the commercial tugs?

DanD Posted June 23, 2009 Report Posted June 23, 2009 I know you where asking about Port Stanley; but Long Point has some real good bass & perch fishing. Kociuk Fishing charter 519-718-2637 This guy is out of Port Rowan; on Long point Bay, which is a little better then an hour from London. Not sure if he runs a first come first serve business or not; but give him a call. If he doesn’t he’ll know who or if someone does in the area. I’ve never been out in one of these charter/party boats with the large group of people; but we always see a few (different companies) of them out there. I can’t remember the name of the one boat; but it looks like a large converted fishing tug and there at least 20 or more people fishing off of it. These boats usually stay in the bay (inner & outer) and fish for bass and perch. You could also call Rotten Ronnie’s Bait and Tackle 519-586-7990; they’re very helpful people there and they’ll know who and where to call. They run a charter business as well (private charters) but I think that they are mostly rigging out at the point in the deeper waters, going for the bigger stuff. Dan.

Fishandchips Posted June 27, 2009 Report Posted June 27, 2009 There are alot of charters out of Erieau,and the fishing is better there than out of Port Stanley,
10point Posted June 27, 2009 Author Report Posted June 27, 2009 Searching the web it all looks like regular charters. Maybe there are no walk on boats available.
