All Muskies, All The Time, ALL DAY

Vance Kaloz has been fishing Chautauqua Lake and Western Pennsylvania for over 30 years. It is where he learned to fish and discovered his passion for muskies, which is exclusively what he fishes for.

Vance charters most of his days on Chautauqua, but during the months of April and May, he takes clients out on Pymatuning reservoir, Conneaut Lake, and other inland Pennsylvania lakes. Vance is on the water, and that is how he beats the muskies. He is active from April through December, chartering for 270 days out of the year, which amounts to 360 charter trips annually. Vance is known as the hardest worker in the industry. He remains focused on the job every day, is disciplined, and never gives up on getting his clients muskies. He studies the body of water and the fish behavior, knowing exactly where to go and what techniques to use to get action. If his clients want to troll, they will troll, and if they want to cast, they will cast. Vance teaches his clients what works best for each day to help them catch fish.

Vance’s accomplishments in his chartering career are unmatched. Due to Vance’s work ethic, he has accomplished record-setting numbers and sizes of muskies from Western PA and Chautauqua Lake, that have only been bested by himself and clients. He is well-known in the musky industry. Vance has been published in Musky Hunter Magazine and Muskies Inc. yearly. He and his client were even featured in the USA Today involving a fall musky hunt. He has been published in muskie books across the nation. He participates in seminars during the off-season to share his passion for musky education. Lure companies from all over North America send him lures to test out because they know if anyone can catch a musky, it’s Vance Kaloz. There is not an angler that fishes for muskies more than him.

Most importantly, Vance takes pride in educating clients and helping them catch muskies, especially if it’s their first. He will work hard all day to put his clients on fish, guaranteeing a great day on the water. He has an unrivaled determination in the industry. His clients come first, always! Vance is a superior educator and goes the extra mile for his clients. He is incredibly humble, and you wouldn’t know of all his accomplishments unless you asked his clients. That is why one of his clients is writing all of what was just read. Vance is the epitome of a Charter Captain and a human.
