Pulling Meat Fishing Charters
I do not clean fish! Start times are flexible. Pulling Meat Fishing Charters is your ticket to the stunning waters of Cayuga Lake. Your guide for the day is Captain Mike, so you’ll benefit from years of angling experience.
There’s no guarantee when you’re fishing, but just some of the species you can catch around here include Brown Trout, Lake Trout, Rainbow Trout, and Atlantic Salmon. You’ll target your catch by trolling. Flatlining, downriggers, long lines, and dipsy divers are some of the methods used.
Trips with Pulling Meat Fishing Charters are open to the whole family, so get ‘em offline and onto the water! Children under 12 must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. You’re welcome to bring snacks and drinks. A cooler is available on board, but you can bring a small one of your own. Alcohol is allowed, but illegal drugs are not.
Your vessel for the day is a 30’ Penn Yan with room for up to 4 passengers. It can take 6 passengers for an additional charge. Cannon Optimum downriggers, Humminbird and Garmin electronics, and auto pilot are some of the fishing equipment on board. Capt. Mike will provide Shimano and Okuma rods and reels and lures from the top manufacturers.
You’ll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Before coming aboard, you’ll need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the Captain.
Fish cleaning is not provided and is not allowed in the marina, so you will have to clean your fish elsewhere .
A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed.

Tiffany Wood5.0VerifiedGreat day on the Lake!
5 Hour Trip (PM) on August 8, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenWe had an amazing day out on the Lake with Captain Mike! Everything about this trip was great! Easy to find his boat, got right on, and hit the water! He explained that the afternoons weren’t always the best fishing but within a half hour we were reeling them in and brought home 10 good Lake Trout, including a Rainbow! Captain Mike was awesome, especially with the kids! He explained everything, guided us all through our catches, and really made an impact on the experience. We will definitely be back and highly recommend Pulling Meat Charters to anyone who wants a laid back, fun, knowledgeable experience, and catching good fish! Thank you Captain Mike!
Matt Durkee5.0VerifiedNewhad a great trip everyone approved and will definitely go out again
5 Hour Trip (AM) on September 12, 2026 • 5 adults • 3 childrenHad a great time, captain and first mate were top-notch did a great job. We caught 15 Lake trout. Fishing was great conversations were great and they were both wonderful with the kids, keeping them engaged in the slow times and teaching them all about the fishing and answering every one of their questions Highly recommend a trip with them
Emily Reed5.0VerifiedGood sport fishing!
5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 15, 2026 • 6 adults • 2 childrenReal down to earth fishing! Good equipment, friendly captain! 5 hour trip with 6 people. Caught a few in first hour then near no activity for 1-2 hours. Moved to different location then started get bites again! Captain knew water well! Highlight was a young boy reeling in a large 28” lake trout! This trip was a good sport fishing trip! Searching for fish, finding right lure! And catching fish too!
Lisa StrazzinkskiRepeat angler5.0VerifiedMy son’s first guided fishing trip and his buddies and they love the experience. We got plenty of fish and will definitely go again.
5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 11, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 childI use my Fishing app to check the moon phase and the probability of catching fish. It was right on. Captain had great equipment. It was real hot. It was just beautiful and it couldn’t have been a better day and the fish were biting. We missed plenty of them, and that was our fault, but we still brought in a good rack.
Mark ChambersRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat Saturday Afternoon Trip with Captain Mike
5 Hour Trip (PM) on August 1, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenWent out at 1PM because it best suited our schedule. Action took a bit to take off but that just left more time for conversation and joking around (both of which Cpt Mike is great at). In the end we had 7 in the boat, probably another 4 got off the line before joining us in the boat. One or two of them were monsters.
Carla Knapp5.0VerifiedAmazing day of fishing!!!!!
5 Hour Trip (AM) on July 23, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 childOur trip with Captain Mike was amazing, we caught fish, had fun, learned a lot. He worked hard to get us fish and we did. We had a 10yr old with us and he took the time to explain to him, how to use the rods and reels but he also explained the equipment. When we come back to the Finger Lakes region we will definitely book with Captain Mike .
Jim Beaumariage5.0VerifiedGreat First Boat Fishing Trip
5 Hour Trip (AM) on July 1, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 childWe went out with Captain Mike and Jeremy, the first mate, for a 5 hour morning trip. This was my 8 yr. old grandson Clark's first trip on a fishing boat. We landed 9 of 12 Lakers. Clark caught 4, my son in law caught 2, and I caught 3. It was a terrific trip and Clark caught his largest 4 fish ever. Thanks Guys.
Paavo Mehtonen5.0VerifiedGreat experience
5 Hour Trip (PM) on August 26, 2026 • 2 adultsWe had a wonderful time on the Cayuga Lake! Captain Michael is a great personality and he really knows how to catch the fish. We got 5 Lake trouts in less than two hours even though it was 2 pm. The biggest one was 13 lbs and the others were nice size too. Thank you so much Captain Michael!
Elisabeth Herdic5.0VerifiedAmazing time!

Thank you for coming out. The big lakee made my day.

Sometimes the fish win. We had an amazing rainbow bite today. i had a great morning with you guys. Time flies when we’re having fun.

Thank you for spending the afternoon with me. I wish i had a video on how well your daughter reeled in fish. She truly put on a clinic!
