We caught big 20+ lb King Salmon and had a wonderful day with captain Robert! Thank you for setting it up a delightful fishing experience. We came home with 30 lbs of Salmon Filets. I would recommend to anyone.
Great trip. Nice Chinook. Captain Robert Simmen is very knowledgeable. all six of us got fish. Learned a lot

Our experience with Capt. Robert was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we stepped aboard, he made us feel welcome and ensured that everything was perfect for our day. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, providing a great environment for both adults and kids. Capt Robert is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, with a colorful personality. He helped us learn new fishing techniques and shared exciting tips. My son and I had an unforgettable time, catching several impressive fish that we'll treasure forever. The excitement, the beautiful weather, and the stunning lake views made it a truly special adventure. This trip exceeded our expectations, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and memorable day outdoors with family. We can't wait to go back for another adventure!

This Charter was the absolute best experience for our family. It takes a good Captain to be able to provide a welcoming environment that allows children, teens & adults to all be able to learn, smile, feel safe & take in such a beautiful hobby in Canada. He has such profound knowledge & experience that I would go time and time again just to spend a few hours on Lake Ontario & to have a great morning fishing with Captain Robert. He allows everyone to have a chance to get the first touch on the real & teaches/guides us to the most adrenaline racing rush of catching big King Salmons. Yes we lost a couple but we still got 6 amazing keepers! He is a great role model for the young fishers! Thanks for being such a beautiful person. See you next summer! 🇨🇦⭐️🎣 Book with “Time off Charters” !!
My grandson and I take one guided fishing trip each year, and this year decided to try the big waters and big fish of Lake Ontario. We chose Captain Robert of Time Off charters and were not disappointed. His knowledge of the lake and the proper techniques was clear from the start (5 am departure!). We hooked one before the second line was fully out and before the magic hour around dawn was done, we had hooked and lost the first 4 fish. Captain Robert was patient with us neophyte bass anglers for our technique was clearly lacking! But his clear explanations and demonstrations took hold, and we landed the next six, including two respectable Chinook (15-20 lb.) and a lovely Rainbow, over our 5-hour charter. Some we released and some we kept, and the Captain was excellent with fish care and getting our C and R's back in the water quickly. He certainly understands the role of charter fishing in keeping our fish populations healthy. On the way back in, he cleaned and filleted the keepers, including removal of all the tiny bones, at no extra cost. We couldn't have asked for more, and got more than we expected. It was an amazing day, and I would recommend Captain Robert to anyone.
4 of us just had an 8 hour fishing outing. It was all we had hoped for and more. Capt Robert was cordial and knowledgable. All day we discussed and shared fishing experiences and techniques. Aside from the fishing, it was a great social event. Intelligent conversations and humour. Aside from getting a bite on a line, we hooked up 8 Chinook salmons and 1 Rainbow trout and brought them all in the boat, going 9 for 9. Capt Robert assisted anyone that needed help,had some of us involved in setting up, retrieval and netting. At the end of the trip, Capt Robert, cleaned and filleted all the fish. We enjoyed it so much, we’re looking into booking another trip next month for an encore. Charles
As first timers, we had a great time. Captain Robert’s took the time to coach my wife and I and we finished the day with 1 small and 3 large salmon.(14-18 lbs) We recommend Captain Robert‘s to anyone who wants to try salmon fishing.

We caught some beautiful fish. What an experience doing battle with the beast! Captain Robert coached time though it all.

We got on fish right away!! Robert guided us and we ended up with a great catch at the end of the day!! Highly recommend!
Brought my son for a high-school grad fishing trip. First time salmon fishing. We had a blast!! Caught some good ones!
We had a great time with Captain Robert, who is very experienced and eager for his customers to catch fishes. His wide knowledge of the area is a huge advantage, and we were very happy with the amount of fishes we caught. We will do it again!

Thank you. It was a team effort cheers captain Robert
