Fishin’ Clinician Charters invites you to a world-class Salmon and Trout fishing trip in Lake Ontario with an experienced captain and professional crew. Captain Mike has more than a decade of fishing experience on Lake Ontario and will do his best to make sure your stay there is an unforgettable one.

You’ll be fishing aboard a 2021 25’ Kingfisher offshore sportfishing boat that’s equipped with a 350 HP Suzuki engine and a 20 HP Suzuki trolling motor. The vessel’s powerful engine can have it reaching an impressive top speed of 40 knots, so you’ll be on the fishing grounds in no time. The boat also has amenities such as a fixed head toilet and air-conditioning inside the cabin.

Lake Ontario is well known for its fantastic Salmon fishery, especially when it comes to Chinook Salmon in particular. Apart from Salmon, Rainbow Trout is probably the most sought-after fish in the lake. Captain Mike will show you his favorite fishing spots and help you go after some big ones that you can brag about later.

The price of a trip includes rods, reels, and terminal tackle, and the crew will clean and fillet your catch after the trip. Feel free to bring some drinks and snacks if you’re so inclined, and a pair of sunglasses and hat are very much recommended. Book your trip now and get ready to have some fun in Lake Ontario.

Captain Mike comes through!

VERIFIED

Captain Mike did not let us down. Even on short notice (we were only in town for another day), Captain Mike got us out onto Lake Ontario. He did warn us about challenging conditions, but we were up for the challenge. My oldest son and I primarily fished, and the rest of the family went along for the ride. Captain Mike did great in managing the boat, and the equipment. Despite all the challenges, Captain Mike stayed on course with a steady resolve and put us on fish. We were on numerous fights with fish, and we landed several beautiful Trout. This was a great lesson for my fishing buddy son - that everything doesn’t come easy or instant, and it takes some work to find fish. Mike was patient with my son and I as anglers, and kept an eye on the rest of the family as well. He let us know that if conditions got too difficult at any time we could turn around and go back in, & not to feel pressured to continue and finish the trip. I would not hesitate at all to go back out with Captain Mike. If he did this well in challenging chop, I can only imagine how good he’d be on an optimal fishing day! Thanks again for a great time Captain Mike!

We had a Fantastic Experience

Picking a fishing charter can be a daunting task but look no further, this is the one. We were a party of 5 - 3 adults and two children ages 5 and 8. Fishin' Clinician was fantastic. We caught many trout out on Lake Ontario. The Lake itself is beautiful. Captian Mike was professional yet very fun. His personality truly made fishing a highly enjoyable adventure. He was very knowledgeable, provided top of the line fishing poles, tackle and equipment. The boat was clean, comfortable and well equipped for small or larger groups. Mike was quick to respond to us and available to answer all of our questions. I would recommend booking directly through his website: **hidden content** Thank you again, Captian Mike! P.S. We grilled our trout for dinner and it was delicious!

It was a hot day with a little breeze, so it started off slowly. But due to the skills of captain and 1st mate, we were able to catch 6 fish in total. The largest salmon was 16lbs to eat and I hooked a lake trout that was 25lbs (released). The boys and I really enjoyed it, thanks Mike!
