Locked with Lorensen is owned and operated by a local family man, Captain Ryan Lorensen, from the Oswego County area. He offers trips for any NYS freshwater species that you would like to target. There is no experience required to go on one of these trips and even if it’s your first time fishing, Ryan is confident that he can get you hooked up and having a good time.

You’ll be fishing on an 18' Tracker Targa Deep V that accommodates up to 3 guests. This multispecies boat features navigational electronics, a live bait tank, and a cooler.

Your guide Ryan is an expert when it comes to catching trophy Salmon and Trout out of the world-famous Salmon river throughout all of the fall and early spring. During late spring and throughout the summer he runs Charters on Oneida lake and the finger lakes to target Lake Trout, Atlantic Salmon, Tiger Musky, Walleye, Northern Pike, Bass, Yellow Perch, and many others.

Ryan also does guided ice fishing trips, but that’s a story for the winter.

All of the bait and tackle needed is covered by the captain. After the trip, he’ll also clean and fillet your catch if you request it prior to the day of the trip. You’ll need to prepare your fishing licenses and pack your food and drinks for the day.

If you have a certain trip, pricing concern, destination, or vision for your adventure just reach out and get ready to have some fun. We can accommodate large groups or company trips just reach out directly for accommodations and questions. Contact Locked With Lorensen and let’s get that trip of a lifetime booked!

6 Hour Trip – Lake Trout (PM) on June 28, 2025

We started out slow, no fish or bites for a few hours, with a lot of northerly winds which inverted the water temps; Ryan kept trying different spots, 6 or7; we then tried some deep water spots, and after I put on my lucky hat we hit five nice lakers, including about a ten pounder I hit; Ryan knows lake Cuyahoga inside and out and was very persistent and did not give up, and he let us fish about an hour longer to catch some more fish; I highly recommend Ryan, he has this jigging techniques down to a science and it works well when you find feeding trout, ; we had a great trip, even though it did not start out well

Man what a day Jim! That was one heck of a challenge and ai couldn't have got it done without you guys hanging in there with me. As I always say never give up and that was a perfect example. Once we found the feeding fish it was game on. I look forward to fishing with you all again.

6 Hour Trip – Multi Species (PM) on July 31, 2024

Our trip was a very enjoyable. Capt. Ryan was very knowledgeable and helpful and friendly. He helped me perfect my casting and jigging so I was more able to easily lure the fish. We had a lot of fun. We caught a lot of lake trout that day. I think I can skip "arm day" at the gym; the fish were that big. Really.

What a great day out there with you both. We definitiely found some big ones and out together a great day. Its funny but people dont realise how physically demanding bringing in some of these big fish can be. It was a pleasure meeting you both and I look forward to seeing you again.

angler's choice

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

I have been fishing ever since I can remember as a kid and I have just always loved being outside and on the water as much as possible. I grew up chasing the next bite in every creek, river, or lake I could make it to. For me, it's not just about the catch. It's also about the experience of just being out there and being challenged. I really love how fishing can bring people together. I live for the moments when a client gets hooked up with their biggest fish ever and often times their first fish ever!
