Vlad. is a greet Captain, full of great knowledge, and fishing experience. This was our second trip with Vlad and planning on having our third with him. Normally will try different charters but after the frist trip we had to do a second and planning our third. we definitely recommend Vlad for your next fishing trip. ( Smackdown )
I want to express my huge gratitude to Vlad for organizing an unforgettable fishing experience! 🐟 Everything is top-notch — modern equipment that makes the process as comfortable and efficient as possible. But the most impressive thing is Vlad himself: during the entire fishing trip, he literally doesn’t sit idle for a minute, always nearby, helping, guiding, and creating a great atmosphere. You can feel that he truly puts his heart into what he does, and his main goal is to give clients amazing emotions, not just to make money. I’ve been fishing with Vlad twice, and both times it felt like a little celebration. All the friends I brought along were absolutely thrilled! Vlad is the kind of person who turns fishing into a real adventure, and the memories last a long time. I wholeheartedly recommend him! 🎣

Just wrapped up my second trip with Captain Vlad, and it was even better than the first! We landed over a dozen big, hard-fighting fish—nonstop action and an absolute blast from start to finish. Captain Vlad continues to impress with his laid-back, friendly vibe that makes the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. He’s not only incredibly knowledgeable on the water, but also well-connected with other seasoned fishermen, which clearly plays a role in his consistent success. If you’re looking for a captain who knows how to find fish, keep things fun, and create unforgettable memories, look no further. I’m already looking forward to many more “Smackdown Fishing” adventures with Captain Vlad!

It wasn’t the easiest day out on the water—conditions made us work for it—but every minute was worth it when we landed a stunning 15 lb King salmon! The sunrise over the lake was absolutely breathtaking, and Captain Vlad’s boat was fully loaded with top-notch gear to give us the best chance at success. Captain Vlad was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what he does. His experience and calm attitude made the whole trip smooth and enjoyable. The boat setup was impressive—clean, well-organized, and equipped for serious fishing. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for an authentic and rewarding Lake Ontario fishing experience. Can’t wait to be back!

I had a great first time fishing experience in Lake Ontario and was able catch , both trout and King Salmon. Captain Vladislav Muravin is extremely skilled and knowledgeable in not just the core fishing activities but also the science and latest tech that goes into the same. He was very particular in ensuring I was able to reel in every fish and that I was happy and engaged, during entire trip. I am looking forward towards a second trip with Captain Vlad and would recommend him to anyone looking for a safe and enjoyable experience.
