Michigan Charter Boat Association
Looking for a Fishing, Sailing or Private Boat Charter? Book your charter today! Michigan Charter Boat Association represents over 600 professional captains that serve over 100 ports in Michigan fishing the Great Lakes and its rivers and lakes.
We are deeply saddened to share the passing of a true legend in the fishing community. Willis was more than just a captain β he was a mentor, a friend, and one of the kindest souls you could ever meet. His dedication to the water, his generosity, and his willingness to serve others in so many ways made a lasting impact on all who knew him.
The fishing community has lost a great leader, and his absence will be felt for years to come. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Rest in peace, Captain Willis⦠You will be dearly missed, but never forgotten.

Sending prayers for his family and friends ππππ
Willis and I were on the Board of Directors of the Association together. He represented his region so very well. We became fast friends at the various meetings. I liked and respected him very much. We remained friends long after his time as a director in the Association. I like to visit him in GH aboard the Thunderduck, and I always looked forward to seeing him when he brought the Thunderduck to the Ludington Tournament. I will miss him very much. Grand Haven will not be the same without him. Tight lines, fair seas, my friend.
Condolences to his family.
Aw hell that sucks bigtime.

Prayers for family and friends! πβ€οΈ

Amendment WCO NO. 6 My husband is a 100% permanent and totally disabled veteran. Reverting to the previous regulation would restore his opportunity to harvest a buck during the brief, but meaningful Liberty Hunt, which occurs before the regular season begins. Given his ongoing health challenges, including unpredictable weather, limited mobility, medical appointments, and both past and upcoming surgeries, participating in this specific timeframe is already difficult. Additional restrictions only further limit his ability to take part an activity that provides both purpose and enjoyment.
What would a conference be without a few vendors?
Come to the event and lighten your wallet a bit with these boat friendly folks!
