If you’ve never fished for Salmon before, then get ready to have your mind blown on a trip with Lake Ontario Fishing Charters! The fight of a Salmon has no comparison with any angling you have ever done, so you’re in for an adrenaline rush, as well as a solid workout when going after these bad boys.
Captain Wayne McAndrew has been fishing the lake’s waters for over two decades, and as a local, he’s in the know of the hottest bite in the area. Your comfortable ride for the day is a 24’ Thompson rigged with two 260 HP Mercruiser engines, more than capable of taking out up to 4 anglers to the most productive fishing grounds.
She’s decked out with top-of-the-line fish finding equipment, has a toilet on board, as well as all rods, reels, and tackle you will need for snatching impressive sized fish. After the trip, the captain will clean the catch for you, so that you have it on the table in time for dinner.
The fishability of Lake Ontario is great from June all the way to the end of September, and depending on the season, you could go from 1-15 miles offshore to net something awesome. Your prey for the day is Chinook (the King of Salmon) and Coho, as well as Brown Trout and Steelhead. Whether you choose a full-day or a half-day trip, you will have plenty of time on the water and Capt. Wayne will always go the extra mile to put you on the fish.
When you choose the date and duration of the trip, it’s time to pick the best company. Come aboard with a few of your best friends and have a little contest to see who snatches the biggest catch for the day.
The captain also likes having families with kids aboard and showing them the angling basics like how to bait their hook and hold the rod. If you do come with your little ones, make sure to bring their favorite life vest, so that they’re safe and sound while having fun.
Lake Ontario Fishing Charters invites you to an angling trip to remember in many years to come, so reserve your spot today!

Captain Wayne tried everything to try to get the fish to bite for us. He was prompt at the dock with everything ready. Welcoming, and made sure we were comfortable. We might not have caught anything anywhere fish this time but we did have a great time nevertheless. Thanks Wayne!

He was always concerned with how we could stand in the strong wind waves. We were obviously not experienced and he took good care of my family , helping us to setup everything and filleted the fishes we caught. Gladly recommend him to a great experience fishing 🎣

Our day with Captain Wayne was outstanding. He knows what he’s talking about. Fisherman and Skipper with lots of experience. We showed up on time and location was easy to find and Wayne was very responsive. Security briefing and rules on board were clear right from the start. We went out there with my nephew for his first experience and even though there was little activity, Wayne managed to keep it entertaining and fun. We enjoyed the boat ride and the experience and will certainly come back for another trip to chase down some salmons. Many thanks again Wayne !!!
