Salmon Catcher Fishing Charters runs seasonal fishing trips on Lake Ontario. Located in the municipality of Mississauga, these trips are a great way to spend the afternoon or weekend going after Salmon and Trout.

Captain Bob has been fishing all Ontario lakes for the past 37 years, focusing on Lake Ontario waters. He knows how to land Salmon and Trout, and will put you on fish. His trips are suitable for novice anglers and more experienced fishermen, so feel welcome.

You will join Captain Bob aboard his 2025 22foot Hewescraft. It is powered by 115 HP and 9.9 hp Yamaha engines including 10KW electric autopilot one, she can reach speeds of 30 knots. The vessel can accommodate up to six anglers in fully enclosed cabin and take them out off the coast of Port Credit or Toronto for some fine fishing.

This vessel is equipped with GPS, fishfinder, Garmin Livescope Xr System,
chart plotter, Doppler radar, and stores the fishing equipment. You will get rods, reels, and tackle, lures, and natural fish cut bait. Soft drinks will be served on board, and anglers are not allowed to bring alcohol on their trip.

These waters are home to hefty Salmon and Trout, and you will get to test your skills on heavy tackle. Salmon Catcher Fishing Charters use trolling to get you the fish, and Chinook, Coho, Rainbow, and Lake Trout all bite well around these fisheries.

If you need flexibility, this charter is the safest option, as Captain Bob can arrange for a different departure time. However, he has a lot of experience fishing here, and knows weather conditions well. He will advise you on your itinerary so that you use the most out of your Lake Ontario fishing.

Pack your necessities, grab a camera, take some snacks, and come along!
ALL Departure times must be finalized with the Captain.

    Bob is awesome, highly recommend!!!

    5 Hour Trip - Weekend PM on May 17, 2026 • 1 adult

    Despite not catching a fish, I had a great time. As a hunter and lifelong fisherman, I know that every trip brings the chance of getting skunked. Bob was constantly adjusting the lines and fighting to get one hooked, but the beautiful weather countered his efforts. Mid may isnt prestine for salmon, as their more active in late june and july. we were hoping for a drop in barometric pressure, but it never came. Bob and i had some awesome conversations while we fished and my favorite part of the trip was learning the ropes. I asked a ton of questions about the equipment, the depth of the lures, what the lures are doing underwater, the speed we trolled at, how to target salmon va trout, and Bob was happy and excited to teach me. this was an A+ experience — even without a fish being caught and i will be coming back to fish with Bob one on one once again ASAP because I know our luck will shift on the next adventure. if youre a real fisherman, you know that there is so much more to fishing than just reeling one in. Bob delivered on all of those other aspects that led me to fall in love with the sport, and based on his other reviews, my lack of catching is clearly uncommon for his clients! Thanks for a great time, Bob! Hoping to get back out with you in july barring my hip surgery!

    Thank-you Captain Bob

    5 Hour Trip - Weekend PM on August 22, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    My wife, 10-year old, and I had a great time with Captain Bob today and caught a fish who btw was very tasty 😁🙏🐟. Today's weather was overcast with some sun and rain which was great not too hot not too cold and the lake was calm and not too choppy. Captain Bob knows his stuff and he is good company. The gear is top notch and boat is very comfortable with all the amenities. This trip was the first time my son had fished on Lake Ontario so that was very exciting for him and he was very happy getting his first salmon. Thanks for a great time Captain Bob 🙏😁

    5 Hour Trip - Salmon Fishing (AM) on October 13, 2026 • 2 adults

    Mother Nature showed many moods this morning and all were beautiful in their own right. We experienced a hot Chinook bite, hooking up 7 times. We ended up keeping 4 eaters and had a wonderful time with Captain Bob. Great fishing andgreat conversation. Give Captain Bob a call for a morning on the water and enjoy some time on the water.

    This trip fulfilled one of my son's biggest wishes. We experienced our first real big fishing adventure together and it couldn't have been better. Captain Bob was calm, professional, knowledgeable, and great company throughout the trip. He put us on the fish and gave us an unforgettable experience with an amazing catch. We would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a true fishing adventure. Thank you, Captain Bob – we hope to fish with you again someday!

    Fantastic Time Fishing on Lake Ontario

    5 Hour Trip - Salmon Fishing (AM) on September 17, 2026 • 1 adult

    I had a great time out on Lake Ontario with Salmon Catcher Charters! It was the perfect way to escape the hustle and bustle of the busy GTA and enjoy a peaceful trip out on the water. Captain Bob was great and really made the experience wonderful. He took the time to explain everything so clearly and I learned a ton about the gear, fishing technique, and the lake itself. Caught some King Salmon and a beautiful Steelhead! Overall fantastic experience!

    Our first charter in Toronto, DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!

    5 Hour Trip - Weekend AM on September 5, 2026 • 2 adults

    The captain was so sweet and truly talented and well informed and gave my husband andbi many insights and tips. The boat was beautiful and the day was absolutely perfect. My husband caught his personal best, 20 pound Salmon in the first 2 hours!! Genuinely the most cathartic experience. This was a treat for his birthday and captain Bob helped make this day so special. Thank you to captain Bob and the King Salmon that made our day!!

    5 Hour Trip - Weekend AM on May 16, 2026 • 3 adults

    My son is a fishing fanatic, so when we were planning a trip from Nova Scotia to Toronto, we knew fishing would be on the list! We booked 2 half days with Captain Bob and were not disappointed! Captain Bob was fantastic! He has so much experience and is very knowledgeable about everything fish related. Trolling was a new method of fishing for us. We love ‘bait and wait’ fishing so this was right up our ally! Captain Bob had everything we needed. The boat and equipment were top of the line! We caught fish both days! An amazing experience for my son (we enjoyed ourselves too). A trip filled with memories that will last a lifetime! If you’re considering a guide, I’d highly recommend Captain Bob!

    Amazing experience

    4 Hour Weekend Salmon Night PM on August 9, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    What an unforgettable first fishing trip! We were fortunate enough to catch rare Atlantic salmon and spawning salmon, and we even brought home some fresh trout for dinner. The captain was fantastic—so humble, patient, and engaging with the kids, taking the time to explain every single step of the process. He made our very first experience truly memorable for the whole family. Highly recommended!

'We have best salmon fishing in Canada right at the City of Toronto's doorstep.' Captain Bob Tatarsky grew up holding a rod in his hand, fishing with his friends. He moved to Ontario in 1980 and has been fishing all of the lakes in the state since then, with special attention paid to Lake Ontario. For the past 4 years, he's been guiding customers on exciting fishing trips on Lake Ontario and other fresh waters of the area. One of his most memorable catches was a 40lb Sturgeon, which fought him for half an hour!

    Conditions were great for the human part of the fishing equation but less than optimal for the fish. Captain Bob was still able to find several active fish and my son-in-law was able to land a nice 20+lb Chinook. We thoroughly enjoyed the outing. Taking my son out with Bob soon.
