Updated: July 23, 2025
Lake Ontario's Sunrise Fishing Adventure
Rise and shine, anglers! Get ready for an unforgettable morning on the water with Captain Mark and the Current Situation Sport Fishing team. We're talking prime Lake Ontario fishing action, where the big ones are biting and the scenery can't be beat. Whether you're a seasoned pro or it's your first time holding a rod, we've got you covered for a day of reeling in some of the lake's most prized catches. So grab your license, lace up those boat shoes, and let's hit the water for some world-class fishing!
What to Expect on the Water
Our morning charter kicks off bright and early, so you'll want to meet us at the marina about 15 minutes before cast-off. Don't sweat the gear - we've got all the top-notch equipment you'll need to land the big one. Just bring your fishing license, a cooler for your catch, and a camera to show off your trophy fish later. As we cruise out onto Lake Ontario, keep your eyes peeled for that perfect spot where Captain Mark's years of experience tell him the fish are biting. We're after some of the lake's most sought-after species, from hard-fighting steelhead to tasty salmon, depending on what's running. And don't worry if you're new to this - our crew is here to show you the ropes and make sure you're reeling 'em in like a pro in no time.
Techniques That Land Lunkers
On Lake Ontario, we're all about trolling - it's the name of the game for hooking into those big salmonids. We'll set up a spread of lines behind the boat, each rigged with lures or bait that'll make those fish go crazy. You'll learn how to watch the rod tips for that telltale bounce that means it's fish on! We might be using downriggers to get our lures down deep where the big ones are hiding, or maybe running some dipsy divers to cover more water. If you're lucky, you might even get to experience the thrill of a "triple header" - that's when three rods go off at once, and the real fun begins! Our team will be right there with you, coaching you through the fight and helping you bring that silver beauty to the net.
Why Anglers Keep Coming Back
"we had a great time fishing, they definitely know what they are doing, will do another trip in the future!" - Benjamin
Species You'll Want to Hook
Coho Salmon: These silver bullets are some of the feistiest fish in the lake. Typically weighing in at 5-10 pounds, cohos are known for their acrobatic fights and delicious pink flesh. They start showing up in the spring and provide action-packed fishing through the summer. Anglers love targeting cohos for their aggressive strikes and the pure excitement of the catch.
Steelhead Trout: Lake Ontario's steelhead are the stuff of angling legend. These chrome-bright rainbows can tip the scales at over 20 pounds and are famous for their blistering runs and spectacular jumps. They're available year-round, but the fall and spring migrations offer some of the hottest action. Landing a big 'bow is a bucket-list item for many fishermen, and for good reason - they're simply a blast to catch.
Chinook Salmon: Known as "king salmon" for a reason, these bruisers are the heavyweights of Lake Ontario. Chinooks can grow to over 30 pounds, and when they decide to take your lure, hold on tight! The summer months are prime time for kings, with the action peaking in August and September as they stage for their spawning run. There's nothing quite like the heart-pounding fight of a big chinook - it's an experience you won't soon forget.
Lake Trout: The native heavies of Lake Ontario, lakers are the ultimate prize for anglers looking for a true trophy. These deep-water predators can live for decades and grow to massive sizes, with 20-pounders being not uncommon. They're available year-round but are especially active in the cooler months. Lake trout fight with dogged determination, using their size and strength to test both angler and equipment. Hooking into one of these behemoths is like battling a submarine!
