This was my third trip with captain Vladislav, and once again, it was an incredible experience filled with great memories. The captain is highly professional and knowledgeable, and he clearly knows exactly how to put you on the fish. The boat is well-equipped with everything you need to locate and catch fish efficiently. We've already booked another trip for late summer and can't wait to get back out there. Highly recommend Smackdown Sportfishing and the captain to anyone.
Dear Dmitry, It was a pleasure to have you back and looking forward to the north shore trip later this summer! Cheers Vlad
It was an amazing fishing experience, Vlad is a very professional fisherman, I'm glad I booked with Vlad, As a long time fisherman I learned a lot from him, I recommend Vlad to everyone who is interested in learning.
Dear Alex, thank you very much. It was my pleasure to get you onto browns, cohos and lakers as well as answer questions regarding accessorizing your boat for salmon fishing. I will be happy to take you out as the season progressing on big salmon kings. Have a great day! Vlad

We generally start the season in the south shore of Lake Ontario, with trips departing from Port Dalhousie, until approximately late May. As the springs transitions into the summer, the trips will be done from Bluffers Park Marina until approximately early October. In the fall, we return to the south shore and fish from Port Dalhousie weather-permitting until the end of the season. Guests are asked to bring only their favorite snacks and drinks, fishing license. I will always call you the day before and advise on proper clothing as well for the upcoming trip. We have everything else on the boat including high-quality sunscreen that we use in our family.
