Phantom Sportfishing offers top service for fishing trips on Lake Ontario and Lake Erie.

Start your adventure with a guide who's seen it all! Captain Franky started fishing in Italy when he was a kid and continued his journey around the world with a professional crew. He decided to settle in Canada and explore the beauty of The Great Lakes. Now, he's ready to share some of this fishing magic with you.

You'll be fishing on a 34' Pursuit offshore fishing yacht, with full amenities for families and groups of up to 8 anglers. These include a bathroom, AC and a heated cabin. Brought down from Florida to give you a full offshore fishing experience, it's the only vessel of its kind on the north shore of Lake Ontario. Why settle for anything less?

Trolling is the best way to cover large portions of water and target larger species of fish that are sure to put a smile on your face when 500 feet of line spool off a reel. Go after Coho and Chinook Salmon, Walleye, or different types of Trout - Steelhead, Brown, and Lake.

The crew will cover your fishing equipment and clean the catch. You'll need to purchase your fishing license and prepare some snacks and drinks.

Phantom Sportfishing will do the work - you do the reeling! Join them for your next day to remember!

32, 34, 50 foot Boats availability. We are an elite service. Don't be fooled by those who provide sub bar vessels with no proper bathroom. All our vessels are fully equiped with all amenities:)

A great time on the water!
6 Hour Trip (AM) on July 26, 20262 adults2 children

We went on this trip with a family of four and our kids aged eight and five years old. We managed to land a Coho salmon and my son lost a king salmon on the way. Overall, we were pretty lucky, as everybody else on the lake had a really slow day. Captain Frank is very experienced, professional, and polite. Definitely would recommend.

Bucket List Adventure with an Incredible Captain
4 Hour Trip (PM) on August 16, 20252 adults3 children

Our private charter fishing trip on Lake Ontario was outstanding! From start to finish, the crew was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient with the kids. They provided proper equipment, shared great tips, and worked extensively hard to ensure everyone had an amazing experience. The highlight was watching the kids reel in some huge fish—memories we'll never forget! Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for both adventure and fun with a personal touch.

Unforgettable fishing trip
6 Hour Trip (AM) on July 1, 20254 adults

Just got back from an unforgettable fishing trip, and I had to capture the experience while it's still fresh in my mind From the moment we hit the water, it was clear this would be no ordinary day. The weather played along perfectly - a slightly cloudy skies, calm waves, and just enough breeze to keep things cool. The real star of the trip, though? The Captain Frank. There's something about the way he handled the boat that made everyone feel like they were part of something special. When my son hooked the fish, Frank was already beside us —coaching, cheering and advising on the way to get the fish on the boat and erupting into cheers over a catch that makes you feel completely alive. We caught only one fish—but we reeled in a few more. It's not just about the hook, the reel, or even what ends up in the cooler—it's the waiting, the watching, the rhythm of casting again and again. It's the quiet between bites, the camaraderie, the thrill of what might be lurking just beneath the surface. It is FISHING and not CATCHING. By the end of the trip, it didn't feel like a charter. It felt like a reunion. Like we'd all been through something together. Captain Frank didn't just give us a great day, he gave us connection, camaraderie, and the kind of stories that live longer than any trophy fish. We would absolutely do it again. The trip hit the sweet spot between excitement and tranquility. Don't hesitate, the fish are waiting.

Growing up on the south coast of Italy in a small fishing town, fishing quickly became a way of life. After traveling around the world fishing and running crews down south on saltwater, it was time to settle down in Canada. I love nothing more than sharing my passion with people and hope you can make it out to see why we are well regarded. Service, kindness, patience, and a willingness to share our sport with any novice are why we do what we do.
