  Fishing Seasons

Lake Ontario trout and salmon fishing charter... The fishing season begins for us right around April 1st. At this time of year Lake Ontario fishing reports begin rolling in from all across the lake. This early in the season, we concentrate our efforts on the warm water close to shore. We fish the shallow water thermal bar focusing on catching hungry browns, with a few steelhead in the mix, and with the possibility of a spring king catching “you” by surprise. In May and June, as the water temperature increases we move a little more offshore and enjoy increasing catches of kings, cohos, and steelhead.  In the summer months of July and August, with a thermalcline established, our main target becomes king salmon but the offshore steelhead fishing can be equally exciting. As September arrives we target large mature salmon beginning to stage for their spawning run and can be found very close to port. The offshore fishing this time of year remains very consistent with catches of both salmon and trout. Whether we're dragging the boards on the beach looking for those football browns, lighting the riggers up on a hot coho bite, flatlining sticks offshore for steelies, or experiencing a king screaming on dipsey rod , we always give 110% to put you on the fish. With the season underway its time to book your next trip!
