We would like to welcome you for an outing on
beautiful Lake Ontario. This Great Lake has
produced many New York State Record fish and
also a World Record Coho Salmon. New York
State stocks over 3.5 million Salmonoids
annually into Lake Ontario and it's tributaries.
Whether you want to catch Lake Trout, Brown
Trout, Steelhead, Coho Salmon or the GIANT
Chinook "King" Salmon you will have a great
day on Lake Ontario.
New York State Records:
Atlantic Salmon 24Lbs 15oz 4/05/97
Chinook Salmon 47Lbs 13oz 9/07/91
Coho Salmon 33Lbs 7oz 8/13/98
Brown Trout 33Lbs 2oz 6/10/97
Rainbow Trout 31Lbs 3oz 8/14/04
Fishing for us on Lake Ontario usually starts in
June because we are very busy fishing for
Trophy Striped Bass on the Hudson River from
mid April until late May.
We start our season on Lake Ontario by fishing
for Brown Trout. The Browns average 6 to 10
pounds and it's not uncommon to catch them
weighing well into the teens! The Brown Trout
fishing in Mexico Bay is excellent during this
time of the season! As the season progresses
into July we head out to deeper water for
Steelhead, Lake Trout & Salmon. Steelhead and
Coho Salmon range from 5 to 20 pounds and the
Lake Trout average 10 pounds and upward. This
is also one of our favorite time's of the season to
catch nice "silver" Salmon. By August, HUGE
numbers of LARGE adult KING SALMON are
making their way into Mexico Bay and staging
prior to their run up the famous Salmon River.
The fishing for these BRUTES out on the Lake
usually goes on through September. We like to
see our clients get involved with the whole
fishing experience but, if you have never fished
for Kings, the best advise anyone could give you
is to sit back and relax because when that rod
releases you're in for a battle. The first run is
usually the longest one, screaming line out 100
to 200 feet and sometimes more. These fish
average 18 to 25 pounds, and it's not uncommon
to catch them in the 30 pound class. It is also not
uncommon to have multiple hook-ups, where 2
or 3 and sometimes all of the rods are hooked up
with fish at the same time! That's when the
excitement level gets turned up a notch or two.
We have been there many times before.
We will do our best to provide you an enjoyable
and memorable fishing experience. Having the
right Electronics, Tackle and knowledge makes a
considerable difference.
Bait, Tackle and cleaning of fish are provided on
Lake Ontario trips.
