My name is Captain Pat Schroeder. I have been fishing the Great Lakes for 50+ years. I started when I was a boy fishing with my Dad in an old wooden boat to helping him on his charter boat off and on for 40+ years. Whether we were tournament fishing for Salmon on Lake Michigan or running the charter on Lake Michigan or Lake Erie, my passion has always been fishing. My job as your Captain is to put you on fish and make sure your day fishing with Sand Paddy Sport Fishing will create memories that will last a lifetime.
