What to Expect on the Water

When you step aboard our well-equipped fishing vessel, you're in for a treat. We'll cruise out to the hottest fishing spots on Lake Ontario, where the big ones are biting. Our 7-hour trip gives you plenty of time to try different techniques and target various species without feeling rushed. You'll have the chance to troll for salmon, jig for trout, or maybe even try some downrigging if conditions are right. And don't worry if you're new to this – our experienced crew is always on hand to show you the ropes and help you land that trophy fish. With a max of 4 guests, you'll get plenty of personal attention and fishing time. Just remember to pack some snacks and drinks, as meals aren't included on this trip.

Fishing Techniques & Gear

On Lake Ontario, we mix it up to maximize your chances of a great catch. We'll likely start with some trolling, dragging lures behind the boat to entice those big salmon and trout. We use top-notch downriggers to get our baits to the right depth where the fish are hanging out. If the bite is slow, we might switch to jigging, which involves dropping weighted lures and giving them some action to attract nearby fish. Our boat is decked out with fish finders and GPS, so we can track down the schools and stay on them all day. We provide all the rods, reels, and tackle you'll need, rigged up with the latest and greatest lures that Lake Ontario fish can't resist. All you need to bring is a valid fishing license and a good attitude – we'll take care of the rest.

Target Species

Rainbow Trout, also known as steelhead, are a favorite target on Lake Ontario. These acrobatic fish are known for their spectacular fights, often leaping clear out of the water when hooked. They typically range from 5 to 10 pounds, but don't be surprised if you hook into a 15-pounder! Spring and fall are prime times for rainbows, but we can find them year-round. Anglers love targeting these fish for their delicious taste and the thrill of the catch.

Chinook Salmon, or "kings," are the heavyweight champs of Lake Ontario. These brutes can top 30 pounds and will test your arms and your gear. Late summer and early fall is prime time for Chinooks as they start their spawning run. When a big king hits your lure, hold on tight – they're known for blistering runs and powerful head shakes that can snap lines and break rods. Landing a Chinook is a bucket-list item for many anglers, and for good reason.

Brown Trout are the crafty fighters of Lake Ontario. These fish are often found closer to shore, especially in the spring and fall. They're not as big as Chinooks, usually in the 5 to 15 pound range, but what they lack in size they make up for in fight. Browns are known for their stunning colors and tricky nature – hooking one is only half the battle. They're a blast to catch on light tackle and make for some excellent table fare.

Lake Trout are the deep-water denizens of Lake Ontario. These fish can live for decades and grow to impressive sizes, with 20-pounders not uncommon. We typically target them in the cooler months when they come up shallower, but they can be caught year-round if you know where to look. Lake trout fights are more about steady pressure than acrobatics, but when you feel that heavy head shake, you'll know you're into something special. They're also delicious smoked or grilled.
