Salmon and trout are getting closer to home. Today we trolled Lake Ontario straight off the Salmon River in 90-120'.
Spoons off riggers were going at 80-100' down. We took several adult king salmon and some BIG brown trout. We had 3 passengers take their limits by 9:30am and dropped 4-5 more fish. Highlight of the trip was 16+ pound brown trout.
We marked bait and fish steady throughout the short trip. Other charters were catching salmon deeper and still others were taking trout shallower. We have plenty of openings this summer including this weekend and other prime weekends in August. We offer package deals for 2 day trips.

Experience charter fishing on Lake Ontario with Captain Shane Thomas aboard our fully rigged state of the art 26 foot Penn Yan. Using all the latest technology while trolling the great expanses of Lake Ontario to ensures your success. Our boat is fully rigged for everyone's fishing pleasure. From top of the line Lowrance GPS/fish finder to our super fast Scotty down riggers our charter boat is truly a fish catching machine. There's plenty of room on board for parties of 1-6 guests. Enjoy an easy day of fishing for a wide variety of fish. There's always something biting whether it's salmon, steelhead, brown trout, lake trout, walleye or bass we'll use our 17 years chartering experience to put you on them.

Springtime walleye and brown trout fishing along the shoreline of Lake Ontario is fabulous. Lake Ontario walleyes grow to trophy sizes with 10-12 pounders common. Brown trout fishing on Lake Ontario will grow enormous as well- The NYS record came from Oswego county weighing over 30 pounds! That was only a few miles from our home port on the Salmon River. Brown trout numbers have been up the past several season with 10-15 fish trips normal in April through June.

On summer fishing charters we target every sport fishing species Lake Ontario has to offer.The biggest baddest of all would be the mighty king salmon. Salmon grow big out on Lake Ontario.Our state record was taken in the Salmon River itself running over 47 pounds! King salmon average over 20 pounds with an occasional 30 plus pounder coming to the net. July, August and September are best months to target these monsters of the great lakes. We often target brown trout, steelheads, lake tout, walleye or bass in the summer. It's your choice, whatever you prefer to catch we'll go after them.

Fall is a great time to catch salmon and steelheads. They are stacking up near shore getting ready to run the Salmon River to spawn. Anglers often do combo trips- a day out on Lake Ontario and another day fishing the Salmon River by drift boat. September and October are prime months for this.

Our charter boat is the closest boat to Lake Ontario at the Lighthouse Marina. The marina is located at the mouth of the Salmon River, Port Ontario only a few hundred yards from Lake Ontario.Take a fishing charter aboard our 26 foot Penn Yan with a USCG Licensed Captain! If your looking for an adventure catching trophy sized fish, give us a call to book your memorable trip today.

King salmon are biting! The eastern basin of Lake Ontario is seeing good numbers of feeding salmon and trout.
We've been trolling 120-140' from the Salmon River north to Sandy Pond. Green pro trolls off down riggers run 90-110' are producing good size king salmon. Spoons have been taking some decent steelhead, brown trout and lake trout. We have plenty of open dates this summer including the next few weekends.

Brown trout charters have had a awesome season so far in 2011. Trolling stickbaits and spoons in 20-30' of water has worked well for us over the last week. King salmon have been hanging deeper, from 120-160'. It's way early for the salmon to be showing up but this is a great sign for the months ahead. Walleye fishing has been very good lately in Oswego Harbor. Slow trolling big stickbaits has been taking some huge walleye. We have dates available for the rest of spring and summer. We are offering a 2 day deal for Lake Ontario Charters this June and July- Book 1 day get 2nd for half price- save money and have fun! Saturdays are not included for this deal. Sundays thru Fridays only.
