Captain Drew was very personable and great with the kids. He found fish right away, and all the equipment was in excellent condition. The trip was enjoyable from start to finish.

We had a great day of fishing with Captain Drew and his mate, Matt. It was my boys’ first time walleye fishing, and I was a little concerned after seeing slow reports the past few weeks, but Captain Drew found the fish! We ended up with 18 keepers. The bite was tough with the fish hugging the bottom, but the boys learned a lot and had a fantastic time. We’re already looking forward to our next trip with Bercaw Sportfishing. Highly recommend Captain Drew and his crew!

Our trip was one to remember and Captain Drew is second to none. We had a cold front and high winds to deal with and he still had us on fish. From three generations of Taylor’s we want to say how much we appreciate the hard work that you put in to get us on active fish. We are looking forward to the next trip

Captain Drew Bercaw is by far the hardest working and most knowledgeable guide on Lake Erie! He boat and gear is all top notch! I can’t recommend him enough. If you are looking to cross a Lake Erie Walleye trip off your bucket list. Drew is your man!

I've gone fishing with Drew multiple times, and it's always an incredible experience—we reel in some impressive catches every time. Drew is consistently friendly, knowledgeable, and ensures we're on the fish! I couldn't recommend a better boat or captain to take us out on the water. His equipment is consistently top-notch, whether we're trolling or casting.

Without a doubt, Captain Drew is the best! We rely on him every year for this trip. We share laughs, swap stories, and consistently have an exceptional experience. Captain Drew consistently guides us to the fish, and I've never had a single complaint in the several years I've been returning. I'm eagerly anticipating this year's trip!

Today couldn't have been better! We arrived at the dock right on schedule, and everything aboard the boat was excellent. Drew provided valuable tips and advice throughout the day, ensuring we maximized our catch and stayed on the fish. We ended up with a full limit of quality keepers and only a few undersized ones. We even had the bonus of catching some white bass and a couple of sizable catfish. Without a doubt, we'll be booking this charter again! Thanks a lot, Drew!

This guy knows how to locate fish! His expertise on the lake and fish is impressive. You won’t find a more hardworking captain. Rather than simply following the crowd, he understands fish behavior and knows exactly where to find them. The rods and reels are of top-notch quality. The boat is clean and equipped with the finest amenities to ensure an unforgettable day. I've exclusively fished with Captain Drew several times a year for the past several years, and I wouldn't choose anyone else. If you're looking for the best, he's the one.
