Cranks Charters 

4.9/5 (26 reviews)
 5818 East Main Street, Olcott, NY 14126, United States

Make some memories in Olcott and go fishing with Cranks Charters. Your guide for the day is Captain Craig, which allows you to benefit from years of sportfishing experience. 

Chinook Salmon, Brown Trout, and Steelhead will be our targeted species. During the trip, you will be trolling. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned.

You’ll be dropping lines from a 31’ tiara with space for 4 passengers. It has downriggers and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. It’s customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation. Fishing licenses are required, but that can be taken care of right in town at a local tackle shop or online.

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to go out with a captain and first mate who truly has just as much fun on the trip as you do. Capt. Craig and his crew love educating you on the fishery and seeing fantastic memories be made. The bite is on fire!
