Expert-Guided Lake Ontario Fishing Charters

Lake Ontario's Trophy Fish Adventure

Ready to chase some monster fish on the big lake? Captain Mark and the Current Situation crew are geared up to take you and your buddies on a serious angling adventure. We're talking about battling trophy-sized salmon and trout on Lake Ontario's vast waters. This ain't your average fishing trip - it's a full-day mission to fill your cooler and create some epic fish stories.

What to Expect on the Water

Picture this: You're cruising out on Lake Ontario at dawn, coffee in hand, watching the sun peek over the horizon. The air's crisp, the lake's calm, and you can feel the excitement building. Captain Mark's at the helm, using his years of experience to put you right where the fish are biting. Whether we're trolling for salmon or jigging for trout, you'll be in for a workout. These fish don't give up easy, so be ready for some serious battles. We'll mix up our tactics based on what's working - could be dipsy divers one hour, downriggers the next. It's all about adapting to what the lake's giving us that day.

Techniques That Land Giants

On this trip, we're pulling out all the stops. We might start the day running copper lines for those deep-dwelling browns, then switch to spoons for some high-flying steelhead action. If the salmon are running, we'll break out the cut bait rigs and go deep. Captain Mark's always got a few tricks up his sleeve, like using flashers to attract curious coho or switching to j-plugs when the kings are being picky. You'll get hands-on with all sorts of gear - from setting lines to working the downriggers. By the end of the day, you'll have a solid grasp on big lake tactics that'll up your game wherever you fish.

What Anglers Are Saying

"Me and my buddies went out with mark and Andrew and we started the morning getting hits on browns we got into a few took a few hits boxed a couple then went out to the salmon waters and found a coho my first ever coho on a 300 copper we boated that fish then fished for the salmon a few minutes with no prevail so we slipped back in to see if browns were gonna play again they didn't want anything so we headed to the dock with happy faces and a happy smoker cause it got some fresh fish to smoke again all in all was a great trip great company and laughs and stories to be had I've been going with mark for 6-7 years now on the river he convinced me to get on the big boat finally and he showed he's just as knowledgeable on the lake as he is on the river if your looking for a memory of a life time and a guy you can be a friend with he's the man he will show you everything and anything you want or need to know get with the man 10/10 recommend" - Jack

Species You'll Want to Hook

Lake Ontario's a smorgasbord of trophy fish, and we're here to help you check them off your bucket list. Let's break down what you might tangle with:

Chinook Salmon: The kings of the lake, these bruisers can top 30 pounds. They're known for their blistering runs and acrobatic jumps. Spring and fall are prime time for these beasts, but we can find them all summer long. Nothing beats the thrill of a king salmon peeling line off your reel.

Coho Salmon: Smaller than their Chinook cousins but twice as feisty. Cohos are speed demons, known for their quick bursts and tasty fillets. They typically show up in spring and fall, often in big schools. When we find a pod of cohos, it's non-stop action.

Steelhead Trout: These chrome rockets are the athletes of the lake. Steelhead will test your drag and your patience with long runs and aerial displays. We target them year-round, but spring and fall see the biggest numbers. Landing a steelhead is like touching a live wire - pure electricity.

Brown Trout: Lake Ontario's browns are no joke. These cunning predators can grow to monster sizes, with fish over 20 pounds not uncommon. They're most active in cooler months, but we can find them year-round hugging structure. Browns are known for their powerful fights and stunning golden-brown coloration.

Lake Trout: The native heavyweights of the lake, these deep-dwellers can live for decades and grow to impressive sizes. We target them in cooler months when they come up shallower, but they're a year-round option for those willing to go deep. Lakers are known for their dogged fights and oily, rich meat that's perfect for smoking.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

It's not just about the fish - though that's a big part of it. Our trips are about the whole package. You're out here with a crew that lives and breathes fishing. Captain Mark's been chasing these fish for years, and he's always learning new tricks. We're not just going through the motions; we're actively hunting for the best bite, switching up tactics, and sharing knowledge all day long.

Then there's the lake itself. Lake Ontario's huge, and every trip's different. One day you might be battling waves and wind for your catch, the next it's flat calm and you're sight-fishing for cruising browns. The scenery's always changing too - from misty mornings to golden sunsets, you never know what you'll see.

And let's not forget the camaraderie. There's something special about being out on the water with your buddies, sharing laughs, busting chops, and cheering each other on when someone hooks into a monster. By the end of the day, you'll have new stories, new skills, and probably a few new fishing buddies.
