Our Season Overview

What we fish for, When, & F.A.Q.S

Lake Ontario

Lake Ontario is famous for it's world class fishery and it's record breaking Trout and Salmon. We fish out of Oak Orchard Creek in Point Breeze, NY which is one of the fishiest and well

known ports on the lake! From King and Coho Salmon, Brown Trout,

Steelhead and more Point Breeze is where it's at!

 

Point Breeze, NY (Oak Orchard Creek) March, April, & May: this time of year we target Brown Trout and Coho Salmon, right near the shoreline in 8-15 feet of water this is top water, fast action, light lined fishing! This time of year also allows us to slide out a little bit further for some possible Lake Trout, and King Salmon.

Point Breeze, NY (Oak Orchard Creek) June, July, August: This time of year out of the Oak is what Lake Ontario is famous for! We start sliding further offshore in June into 100-200 feet of water  and by June and July we can be as deep as 5-600feet of water. Great mixed boxes of King and Coho Salmon as well as Steelhead are what's playing during the summer and there's no better port then the Oak with the quick access to deep water and biting fish! There is also always a nice patch of Brown Trout that hang off the structure inshore if your looking to tangle with one of those beauty's as well.​

King Salmon: springtime average 8-15lbs and up to 20 by summer and fall average 15-25 up to 30

F.A.Q.S

Q: Can we book groups larger than 6?

A: There is most always a second vessel available to help with larger parties.

 

Q: Do we fish in bad weather?

A: Our charter boats are hard tops with drop-curtains so we are able to fish in most any weather. Cancellations due to high winds may be possible at the Captain's descretion. We do not consider rain to be bad weather... the fish are already wet. Most often times, the captain will call at least three days ahead of your scheduled trip to discuss the weather with you for your upcoming charter.

 

Q: What is time of departure?

A:Our morning charters normally depart between 5 and 6 am depending on the time of year. Our 6hr afternoon charters depart around 2pm.

​

Q: Are alchohol and cigarettes allowed onboard?

A: We do allow you to smoke cigarettes/e-cigs etc. on our vessels however we ask that you stand on the back deck when doing so. Alchohol is permitted on board but we ask that you don't get too carried away. No illegal substances are allowed onboard any vessel at any time! If found, you shall be reported immediately and your trip will be terminated. ZERO TOLERANCE.

​

Q: What should I bring with me?

A: Bulleted list below!

  • Ny State fishing license (age 15 and under not required) 

  • Seasonally appropriate clothing (depending on weather and time of year) 

  • Drinks and food for while you're onboard

  • Cooler to bring home your catch

  • Sunglasses, camera, sunscreen (lotion)

  • We strongly prefer no spray/aerosol sunscreen or bugspray as it can get on the deck, equipment and lures.

 

Q: Cancellation Policy?

A: We allow our clients to cancel up to 14 days before a scheduled trip. The option is given first to rebook and if not, your deposit will be refunded. If we cancel due to weather, your deposit will be refunded. The exception to the 14 day rule is if there is a family emergency of some sort - such as a death in the family or a current hospitalization of a family member. We do understand things happen in life.
