River Valley Charters 

From the height of summer to the depths of winter, River Valley Charters will show you Lake Ontario’s best fishing. Captain Ben Roggie runs trips from Henderson Harbor NY, the trophy fishing destination for discriminating anglers! This corner of Lake Ontario consists of several back bays fed by tributaries of the lake. Along with our exceptional Salmon and Trout fishing, these back bays provide trophy-class Pike, Pickerel, Walleye, and Smallmouth Bass! The Eastern Basin of Lake Ontario also provides security from the wind and weather. Open-minded anglers can find themselves fishing the bays of the lake on days that would be too unsafe or uncomfortable on the open waters. This means less chance of cancellations due to weather! The deep water fishing consists of Brown & Lake Trout, Steelhead, King (Chinook) & Coho Salmon. Anglers looking for Multi-species trips often reserve 2 days of fishing for the most diverse experience. Add a day of perch fishing for a cost-friendly addition to your trip!

The 26’ Penn Yan comes equipped with everything you need and more for a successful and comfortable day on that water. On board, you’ll find all the necessary safety equipment, along with Lowrance & Garmin navigational gear. You’ll have a porta-potty on board for your convenience, while the livewell will make sure to keep your bait fresh. Comfortable seating is available for when rest is needed, and an open deck/floorplan provides ample space for fighting fish! Rest assured that you’ll be in for a safe, fun, and memorable day’s fishing.

You’ll have your catch cleaned and prepared at the end of the trip at no cost to you, so you can relive the day and memories over a delicious meal that evening. The region is also rich in history and other forms of recreation. Capt. Ben will gladly assist in building a multi-day itinerary for you and your party upon request. You’ll be hard-pressed to find any company that goes as above and beyond as River Valley Charters!
