Taymo Charters invites you to spend a day on the waters of the Western Basin of Lake Ontario with Captain Jay Wilson. This full-service guided Salmon fishing charter operates on Lake Ontario from April to October.

Captain Jay has over 30 years of experience fishing and guiding on Lake Ontario and will provide an excellent time for everyone onboard. Experiencing the fight of fresh water Salmon and Trout species with the Toronto skyline in view is just one of the perks of fishing with Jay. You can fish in one of the biggest and most successful Salmon Tournaments during July and August every year, too!

Salmon fishing on Lake Ontario out of Oakville, Canada is best from June through August; Steelhead fishing is good from April through October, and Brown and Lake Trout are best in May, and then again in September and October.

FIshing is done aboard Captain Jay's 27' Cruiser Inc Offshore sport fishing boat, originally built in 1989, and restored in 2016. Powered by a 350 HP Mercruiser inboard engine, with a maximum cruising speed of 30 knots, this vessel is very fast. The onboard Lowrance HDS GPS and a twin Lowrance/Simrad fishfinder will help you locate the best fishing spots. The vessel is equipped with all the safety features you might need, a livewell for the bait, a bed, and a toilet.

Taymo Charters will include rods, reels, tackle, and lures on all trips. There will be a first mate to help you reel in your catch, and they will also clean and fillet your catch once the trip is over. For your convenience, Taymo Charters are child-friendly.

    Fishing with Jay

    5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 16, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had an absolute blast fishing with Capt. Jay and first mate Jimmy! The weather was a bit outcast, however, safe enough for half day of pleasure. Capt. Jay kept us informed about weather conditions during the process of booking and finally our BIG day was here! His experience, knowledge, accommodating and friendly attitude made us feel comfortable. The boat was clean and high equipped with top-of-the-line gear. We had a few releases, however, nothing concrete until my daughter had the thrill to fight her biggest King! A 22Lb full force beautiful salmon caught & released. If you want a guide who is dedicated to getting you on the fish and ensuring a successful day, Capt. Jay is certainly the real deal. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an amazing adventure! We're looking forward to book him again. Thank you Capt.Jay and First mate Jimmy!

    A Fantastic & Unforgettable Day with Jay on Taymo

    Early Bird Trip on August 9, 2026 • 5 adults

    🎣 A huge thank you to Jay Wilson and Taymo Charters for an incredible day chasing Kings on Lake Ontario. From the moment we set out, Jay made the experience great fun—professional, relaxed, knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about fishing. We had an unforgettable day with family and friends, landing three Chinook (King) Salmon weighing a total of 40 lbs, including a spectacular 24¾-lb King! More than the catch, it was the camaraderie, excitement and memories on the water that made the day special. If you’re looking for a great fishing experience on Lake Ontario, I highly recommend Jay Wilson and Taymo Charters. We’ll definitely be back! 🎣 #TaymoCharters #JayWilson #LakeOntarioFishing #ChinookSalmon #KingSalmon #FishingWithFamily #GreatDayOnTheWater

    The captains were well trained and very knowledgeable. They took us to the right spot where the salmons were biting. We caught four salmons and also got to keep one for dinner. I will highly recommend this team to all my friends and family.

    Great experience with Taymo Charters!

    5 Hour Trip (PM) on July 27, 2025 • 4 adults

    We just had a great experience with Taymo Charters. Captain Jay driving and B guiding the back of boat action are a great team and made for a fun, informative, and relaxed experience. You can tell these guys love what they do. They made the experience comfortable and enjoyable for our family (husband, wife and two older teens). The most difficult aspect was finding parking - something to keep in mind if you’re booked on a weekend afternoon. But aside from that, the whole experience was fantastic. We ended up catching four fish which B cleaned and filleted for us near the end of the trip. We would definitely recommend Taymo Charters to others.
