Charter boats or offshore/pier fishing?

This time of year, I would try Dunkirk or Barcelona NY guides as the lake is warm and all the big fish have moved deep, like at least 80 to 90 feet of water, minimum.

What about in the beginning of October? Will they have moved in to shallower water by then? My dad is coming into town then and we're looking to do some walleye fishing. It will just be us two though most likely so are there any chater boats that aren't ridiculously expensive for two people?
