Can't wait for my Trip to Lake Erie

My dad and I are thinking about going to Lake Erie for a fishing trip sometime this summer. We might take a charter. For the people who do not know what a charter is, it is when a group of people go on a boat and fish all at the same time. Kinda like a mega fishing trip. On the charter we are going to fish for walleye or perch. I have never caught walleye or perch before so this will be a fun experience. I hope the weather will be ok on our trip.
