Pork Chop Express Charters Olcott is located in Olcott and offers to show you a memorable time on Lake Ontario. Capt. Sam Downing mainly covers water out of Olcott. He loves teaching people how to fish and helping them create memories of a lifetime as they fish in the area's rich waters.

Capt. Samuel will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 4/6 or 8- hour trips, mainly fishing for Salmon and steel head Trout, depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as heavy tackle and trolling. In your search for King Salmon, you'll troll and use dipsy divers, wireline, and downriggers.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 28' or 30' new aluminum boat that can safely take up to 6 anglers. It's powered by a 400 or 600 HP Suzuki engines and has got modern Garmin electronics and all the best safety gear. The boat also comes with a toilet and a fish box.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Please make sure to buy a valid fishing license ahead of time. Also, bring any food and drinks you want as well as a cooler to store them. If you need a motion sickness medicine, make sure to bring that as well. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip for a fee if you choose.

From total beginners and the kids to seasoned pros, you'll have a great day fishing with Pork Chop Express.

    Salmon trip

    8 Hour Trip–Salmon (AM) 1-6 People on August 18, 2022 • 2 adults

    We had an amazing time with Captain Sam and Porkchop express charters! Sam and his first mate Caleb are very knowledgeable about fishing, they explained everything to us even though we were amateurs. You can tell they really enjoy their craft and are in the business of getting you big fish! Sam was able to get us hooked up with a hog of a 20lb king salmon along with a few others. I will never forget this fish or the time we spent on the boat. Five stars!

Capt. Samuels grew up in western Pennsylvania and was introduced to hunting and fishing as soon as he could hold a rod and a gun. He remembers fishing with his dad on the Allegheny River where he would night fish for Sucker and Catfish as a little boy. They moved on to wading the streams fishing for Trout, learning the finesse techniques of fly fishing, and the patience involved with the sport. As the captain grew older, they ventured to the Great Lakes in New York and Pennsylvania to fish for Salmon and Steelhead creating great memories. Capt. Samuel went into the Air Force and ended up stationed in North Dakota where he was exposed to Walleye fishing on Devils Lake. He fell in love with the challenges of catching Walleye. Several years later, he ended up living in Michigan surrounded by tremendous Walleye fishing opportunities. He purchased a Lund boat, gained knowledge and experience, and decided to upgrade to his North River and get a charter license to share what he's learned.
