If you're suffering from 'Salmon Fever,' then the cure you're looking for is Reel Addicted Charters! Captain Michael Ford specializes in Salmon and Trout fishing, running charters from the Hudson and Salmon River, as well as Lake Ontario. He holds both a USCG Master and New York State Guide License and knows all the sweet spots to land you a keeper.

Your boat for the day is 31' Rampage walkaround, equipped with top-quality navigational instruments, outriggers, downriggers, and a live bait tank. She accommodates up to 6 guests and has plenty of seating space to relax if you want to take a break from fishing. You'll also be able to unwind in the air-conditioned cabin or prepare yourself a quick meal in the kitchen. There's also an onboard toilet, making her convenient for those extra-long trips.

When heading out from Mexico Bay, you'll be able to choose between the Salmon River or Lake Ontario. Both locations provide plenty of fishing opportunities and you'll have your work cut out for you no matter where you go. Your main targets are Chinook Salmon and Steelhead Trout, but you'll also be able to target other species such as Pink, Coho, and Atlantic Salmon, as well Lake and Brown Trout.

Capt. Mike also specializes in fly fishing and has all the necessary gear if you'd like to give it a try. It's challenging but extremely fun to try and catch a Salmon or Trout with a fly rod! You'll be provided with top-of-the-line rods and reels, as well as bait and lures. Just be sure to purchase your fishing license before the trip and you're good to go.

If you're itchin' for some monster Salmon, then Reel Addicted Charters will hook you up! Just pack some food and drinks, show up with a positive attitude, bring a camera, and get ready to catch some awesome freshwater fish with Capt. Mike!

    It was a slow morning. Captain was constantly changing up rigs and about mid morning got onto some great fishing. He’s very patient and a better teacher. Communication was spot on. We’ll be back!

    This guy is the king of all captains

    Full Day Trip on July 30, 2025 • 2 adults

    You will never find a better captain. Out of about 60 boats out of Oswego, he was one of two that was willing to go far enough out and burn the necessary gas to make it a home run of a trip! For a solid 8 hours, Mike was pedal to the metal working to get us on the fish and we slammed it! Absolutely fantastic charter. I would recommend 100% to anybody and everybody. I've done a ton of charters and I'd say Mike Ford rates in the top 1%

    Awesome 8 hr Reel Addiction Lake Ontario Salmon Charter adventure :)!

    Full Day Trip on September 6, 2023 • 6 adults

    Did my homework well choosing Reel Charters for our Salmon fishing adventure! Excellent communication and coordination to prepare for our stay followed by superb service with a great team on the water. Captain Mike & Nick had us on fish very quickly and we had a steady diet of bites and catches til we came in with our max. Their passion and knowledge for fishing and providing a very entertaining experience for their clients made this a top notch experience. Highly recommend you book them. We will definitely be back!

    Great Trip. Great Boat & Crew

    3/4 Day Trip (PM) on June 18, 2023 • 4 adults

    Captain Michael & Nick were awesome. They are a great, hilarious team. Cannot say enough good stuff about the boat, the crew, and the trip. Group of four of us went on a 6 hour afternoon trip on Father's Day. Limited out on king salmon. I will be booking another trip with this crew on Lake Ontario and potentially one on the Hudson River for stripers. Weather & conditions were nearly perfect. Very safe boat and crew. Definitely recommend this trip to others.

    Fantastic Fishing Experience

    Full Day Trip on July 10, 2021 • 5 adults

    So while searching for a boat to go fishing on Lake Ontario I stumbled across Reel Addicted Charters. After reading the positive reviews I decided to take a chance on Captain Ford. My four sons and I spent the day fishing with Captain Ford and man did we get lucky. Captain Ford was very professional and tried his best to ensure we had a great fishing experience despite the fact that he didn't have a first mate. He pulled out all the stops to make sure we caught fish. We will definitely be back next year, Thanks Captain Mike.
