Excited to go fishing in Berrien Springs? Originator Fishing Charters is your ticket! With Captain Jerry at the helm, you’ll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Smallmouth Bass, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Brown Trout, Chinook Salmon, Walleye, and who knows what else! For these species, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle.

Trips with Originator Fishing Charters are great for kids, so get ‘em offline and onto the water! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Capt. Jerry operates the Originator 2, a 26’ JC Pontoon boat that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has all the essentials. What’s more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are bottled water, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray).  Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now’s the time to experience fishing in Berrien Springs for yourself, with Originator Fishing Charters!

Sunny skies, shy fish!
7 Hour Trip – Saint Joe River on October 20, 20253 adults
Beautiful sunny day for people to enjoy-not much luck with the fish, but Captain Jerry was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip enjoyable despite the slow day. Would go again just for his company!

We had a an amazing time with captain Jerry! Even though the fishing was slow, he made sure we were still having fun and comfortable. Jerry kept conversation going, we were laughing, and we had such a good time on the water. We would definitely recommend this charter to anyone, and would definitely book it again.

7 Hour Trip – Saint Joe River on December 27, 20243 adults
The fish were not biting real well today. Very few were caught by other charters as well. However, Captain Jerry worked extremely hard to try and get us on fish. He maintains his equipment well, teaches as he goes and will go the extra mile to make the trip worthwhile.

I picked the perfect captain to have my grown sons and grandson experience what I had experienced about 40 years ago!
