A Message from the Real Time Charters Family ❤️

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our beloved grandmother this past Sunday.

Less than a year ago, our family said goodbye to our grandfather. Now, we find ourselves facing another heartbreaking goodbye.

Losing two people who have been such a big part of our lives in such a short amount of time is something words cannot fully describe. Our grandparents were part of the foundation of our family, and their love, memories, and legacy will continue to live on through all of us.

While our hearts are heavy, there is comfort in knowing they are together again.

On behalf of our family, we want to thank everyone who has reached out, prayed for us, and shown us kindness during this difficult time. Your continued love and support mean more than you know.

We've included a few photos of our grandparents from happier days, when life was a little simpler and we didn't realize just how precious these moments would become. These pictures hold memories, love, and pieces of a lifetime that our family will cherish forever. While we wish we could have just one more moment with them, we're grateful for all the ones we were given. ❤️

With love and gratitude,
The Real Time Charters Family ❤️

Today we had Doug and Jim out fishing with us! 🎣

We pushed our start time back to 10 because of the weather, then didn’t leave the dock until about 10:50 thanks to a traffic jam on the 90W. Turns out, it all worked in our favor!

We were still setting up when things got crazy. We’re putting rod #3 down when the Dipsey goes off… then the rigger! TWO fish on before we even had three rods in the water! 😂🎣

It turned into a quick trip, even with a little bit of everything thrown at us bumpy water to start, rain, and fog. But it was a really fun trip, and we made the best of the conditions we were given. At least it was warm!!

Till next year, guys! Thanks again for spending the day with Reel Time Charters! 🎣

🎣 THE SEASON ISN’T OVER YET! 🎣

Our last official scheduled charter is September 16th, but that doesn’t mean we’re done fishing!

Going forward, we’ll be making a list of anyone who still wants to get out on the lake. When we see a good, fishable weather window, we’ll start calling or texting people a day or two ahead of time to see who’s ready to go!

There is still LOTS of great fishing left this season, and we plan to take advantage of it whenever Mother Nature lets us. 🎣

We’ll be offering:
• Bottom bouncing
• Trolling
• Jigging
• Nighttime trolling 🌙🎣

If you want to be on the call list, shoot us a message and let us know! You might not get much notice, but if the weather cooperates, we’ll be ready to fish.

Reel Time isn’t done yet! 💪🎣

Today we had Justin Koschara and his son Weston from Excavation Services, along with Jeremy Mummau and his son Braden from Martin Water Conditioning, out with us!

It was definitely a challenging day for some newbies on the lake. 🎣 Fish didn’t want to stay on the hooks, boats were in the way, seasickness made an appearance (with a little chumming of the waters 🤢😂), and the lake couldn’t quite make up her mind. She didn’t know if she wanted to blow from the southeast or send us swells from the southwest!

But these guys never quit! They did everything they needed to do to get their fish in the boat and kept at it through every challenge the lake threw at them.

Even with all the craziness, it was a fun day on the water. We’re so glad you guys chose to spend the day with Reel Time Charters! 🎣

Sometimes you gotta earn ’em and today, these guys definitely did! 💪

🇺🇸 We Will Never Forget. 🇺🇸

Today, Reel Time Charters pauses to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, the families forever changed, and the first responders and everyday Americans who showed incredible courage in the face of tragedy.

25 years later, we still remember where we were. We still honor their sacrifice. And we will never forget the way our country came together.

May God bless the families who carry that loss every day, our first responders, our military, and the United States of America. 🇺🇸

9.11.01 — Never Forget.

🎣 From fire drills in the morning to “where did all the fish go?!” in the afternoon! 😂

After wrapping up our two-boat charter Tuesday morning, we turned around and headed back out around 2 with our friend Doug and his buddy Bob. With Wednesday’s forecast not looking too friendly, we switched things up to take advantage of Tuesday’s weather and we’re glad we did!

Naturally, we headed right back to the spot where we had fire drills all morning. Only one problem…

The screen was BLANK. 😳

Where did they go?!

We wandered around searching and finally started picking away at them. Every S-turn seemed to produce another fish, and before long they were coming in at a pretty steady pace. Looking at the screen, it was hard to believe we were catching anything at all!

But the fish made sure Bob knew they were still down there especially on those 10-color, 600-foot lead core rods. You know… Bob’s favorite setup. 🤣 Hands cramping, arms burning… he absolutely loved every second of it!

Okay, maybe not. 😂🎣

Thanks, Doug and Bob, for adjusting your schedules so we could beat the weather and get you guys out on the lake!

Always a good time with you guys. See you again next week! 🎣

🎣 Now THAT was a company fishing trip! 🎣

Yesterday we had the pleasure of running a two-boat trip for Matt and David King from R&R Builders and Sons LLC, along with their crew...and what a trip it was!

The walleyes came fast and furious with doubles, triples, and even TWO quads hitting the boats! 🔥🎣 And just to make the day even more memorable, the guys added a couple bonus fish to the mix...a rainbow trout AND a lake trout!

These are the kinds of trips we love. Great fishing is always a win, but when you add in good people, nonstop laughs, stories, and a crew just enjoying a day together on the water, it makes it that much better.

Thanks to Matt, David, and the entire R&R Builders and Sons crew for choosing Reel Time Charters for your company fishing trip! We had an absolute blast with you guys.

See you next summer
We’ll be ready for round two! 🎣🙌

When Saturday’s charter didn’t come together, we decided to make the most of the beautiful morning and turn it into a family fun day on the lake! 🎣❤️

And the fish definitely cooperated!

🐟 3-man limit — 18 walleyes
🐟 8 perch
🐟 6 white perch
🐟 5 sheepshead

But the best part was plenty of teasing, joking, laughing, and just enjoying a nice, relaxing morning together on the boat. Sometimes an unexpected open day turns into exactly what you need!

We still have September charter dates available, and there’s plenty of time to get out there and fill those freezers before the season winds down. Whether you want to troll or bottom bounce, we’ll get you on the fish and make a great day out of it.

🎣 Reel Time Charters come spend a day on the water with us!
