You will enjoy fishing on the beautiful Salmon River and surrounding Lake Ontario tributaries for world-class steelhead, brown trout, Coho and Chinook salmon.
Seasons
Chinook & Coho Salmon - End of August through October
Brown Trout - Mid October through November
Steelhead - Mid October through May
Our steelhead average 8 to 10 pounds, with our clients landing many 15 to 20 pound steelhead each year. Salmon average 20 - 25 pounds, with a few 30 to 40 pound fish caught every year. You have a good chance of landing a lake run brown trout that is bigger than 15 pounds but the average is 4 to 6 pounds. We fly fish, spin fish, or centerpin float fish depending on your style and river conditions. With our combined experience of 25 years, you will learn techniques of finding, hooking, fighting and landing these world-class fish on your own. We will do our best to make your trip an experience you will not forget.

Lake Fishing
Our lake season begins in April with near shore trolling for brown trout and continues through the summer months with offshore trolling for Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon and Steelhead. As the fall approaches we concentrate around river mouths for salmon staging prior to running the rivers. Andrea holds a USCG Master Captain's liscense #1512837 and we run a fully equipped 22' Crestlinter. We specialize in smaller groups of fisherman so there's no need to find 4-6 people to fill a booking.
