If you are looking for a getaway into the great outdoors for some peace and fun fishing, this is the trip for you! The scenery is amazing, the fishing is better! Capt Mike will surely get you hooked up… and hang on for a fight with a big King! This was a great time. I highly recommend it.

Full Day Trip on October 15, 2024

Fished the Niagara River with Mike last year and had a great time. Hooked into kings, steelhead, browns and lakers. He’s been doing it for years and is a great guide who will get you on fish. Along with the fishing, the scenery is great in the fall as well.
