Captain Stephen Ernye of Lake Run Fly and Guide has been dedicated to chasing Great Lakes salmonids for over a decade! He believes in giving his clients the best chance at catching true trophies and creating life long memories.
Come aboard his 18’ Stealthcraft power drifter with a 40 HP Mercury engine and enough room to accommodate up to 3 people. You’ll have quality Lamiglass rods and reels to use, and if you’re a fly rodder, your guide will bring the fly fishing gear with him, just let him know in advance.
Capt. Stephen specializes in chasing Trout and Salmon, so it’s a good idea to pick a trip depending on what species you’d like to target. The Chinook Salmon season opens in September and these delicious fish are in the cards by late October.
As November approaches, Great Lake tributaries are becoming the playground of Brown and Rainbow Trout that follow the migrating Salmon in search of food. Trout are relentless acrobatic fighters that will give you an incredible battle before you get them into the boat.
The spring is a great time to chase big Brown Trout and get into some fast and furious action. Capt. Stephen will provide everything you need for your fishing jaunt, you just need to show up with a valid fishing license and some food for the trip.
Whether you decide to come with your kids or your best fishing buddies, Lake Run Fly and Guide will make it their business to get you hooked!

Salmon Trip (AM)
Where do I start? I had to rearrange this trip because of a change in travel plans and Capt. Stephen worked with me the entire time. He was very knowledgeable and very patient. I lost 4 fish and was feeling discouraged but Capt. Stephen helped me to adjust my technique and I went on to catch my limit, including an 18lb King Salmon. I can't wait to book my next trip!

Full Day Trip – Salmon
Mike is a knowledgable captain and fishing guide. We could not have had a better day of fishing. Came up for a bachelor party long weekend and one of the guys we brought up had never fished or caught a fish in his life. Mike got us on the fish and in no time he caught his first fish ever... a salmon. We caught our limit and tried trout fishing a little bit before calling it a day. Cannot thank you enough Mike for the great time and memories made. -Max

Full Day Trip – Trout
Water in river was pretty low so we could reach just one spot on the Oswego river. From 5:30 am to 11am 7 fish (one person) were landed to the boat and released and 8-10 nice and strong bites of steelhead, brown trout and rainbow trout.
