Hot Lake Ontario Salmon and Lake Trout Action Opens Weekend Dates

Action is starting to heat up in the eastern basin, yesterday we lost quite a few big fish but managed to land a walleye and some slammer bass with one that was almost 23” but weighed only 5lb 11oz. 
Today we struggled to find the fish where we left off yesterday, also made a move inside where we really marked them inside but the wind increased so much we couldn’t keep clean from the weeds. Got a call from a buddy he hit a few bass outside and honestly it was where I planned on going first thing and we fired a ton of rods, lots of shorts but squeezed off a limit of bass, also got bit off by a heavy fish I’m guessing was a walleye. Overall it was a beautiful weekend on Lake Ontario, especially in October. 
Have October 19th open afternoon
November: weather permitting of course
1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th

Lake Trout

Sackets Harbor Fishing Report

Smallmouth Bass

Had an incredible time on Lake Ontario this Sunday with a fantastic group of guys! We experienced some fantastic Lake Trout action using a spoon and flasher fly pattern in depths ranging from 38 to 44 feet.

Initially, we aimed for some Brown Trout, but due to the north wind, the water was exceptionally clear with little color, resulting in sparse bites. We contemplated heading south, but decided to stick it out, and it paid off with three Brown Trout catches, including one that measured over 27 inches!

We kept some of the Brown Trout along with a few of the Lakers for a delicious meal—they're excellent when properly processed and cooked.

Now is the perfect time for some near-shore fishing, promising exciting action. Investing in a memorable day on the lake doesn't require a significant expense! We offer both 8-hour and 5-hour trips.
