Fishing in Pulaski

Once called “Fishville,” this town on the eastern shorelines of Lake Ontario lives up its former name. On a Pulaski NY fishing trip, you’ll have access to the smallest of the Great Lakes as well as the incredible Salmon River and the Douglaston Salmon Run. If freshwater sportfishing is your cup of tea, head on over!

While you can fish in Pulaski year-round, what you’ll catch will depend on where and when you go. Between April and October don’t miss out on the opportunity to explore Lake Ontario. Here, you can expect to hook into the likes of trophy Brown and Lake Trout, as well as Salmon in the deeper waters offshore.

If you’re here in the fall, chances are you came for the Chinook and Coho Salmon run. In that case, the Salmon River and Douglaston Salmon Run are where you want to be. These tributaries of Lake Ontario are stocked with delicious pink-fleshed fish and also offer excellent Steelhead fishing in the colder months.

Since the majority of anglers come to Pulaski in pursuit of Salmon, full day trips are the most commonly offered option. If you don’t have that much time to spare, a half day trip on Lake Ontario can put you on tasty Trout.

Where you’ll find a charter will depend on what fish you’re chasing. Head to the shorelines of Lake Ontario in the summer to find productive Trout charters and to the Salmon River in the fall to go after Chinook and Coho.

Rules & Regulations

Your charter captain will provide you with fishing gear, but you’ll be responsible for buying a fishing license for all anglers over the age of 16. The Salmon River is subject to strict regulations and it’s best to head out with a reputable captain if you’re new to the area.

Pulaski Fishing Seasons

January

It's cold and most of the fish are hibernating. You can hook Steelhead in the tributaries, however. If the conditions allow for it, head to Oneida Lake to ice fish for Perch and Walleye.

February

You may find a few Steelhead and Brown Trout in Lake Ontario's tributaries. Ice anglers can also enjoy Oneida Lake if the ice is thick enough.

March

Steelhead and Brown Trout continue to bite well. Cheer up with the annual Wings and Things Fest for delicious chicken wings, drinks, and raffles.

April

April through to June is prime time for delicious Brown Trout in the 8–20 lb range. On occassion, Chinook Salmon will show up in Lake Ontario's offshore waters this early as well. 

May

Smallmouth Bass makes for a reliable spring target. Walleye anglers can also rejoice – the season is officially open! Get on the Brown Trout bite while it’s hot, too. 

 

June

This is the month for Smallmouth Bass, so prepare your tackle box accordingly.  Brown Trout continues to bite well.

July

July is still great for Smallmouth Bass, and the Brown Trout are active too. For Steelhead, use light tackle for great results.

August

Activity begins to heat up for Salmon, usually Coho first, as they begin their spawning season at the end of August. Brown Trout continues to be active, and Smallmouth Bass is still good.

 
September

This is the month for Chinook and Coho. Once in the river, their focus is on spawning, not eating, so traditional lures won’t work here. The Salmon River will get very crowded for the next two months.

 
October

This is one of the best times to go after both Chinook and Coho Salmon. The Salmon run is nearing it's end, so get your lines in the water as fast as possible and observe all the regulations for the area. 

November

This is your last chance to catch Salmon. After they die off, you can concentrate on catching the remaining Steelhead and Brown Trout.

 
December

December is a good month for catching Brown Trout and Steelhead. Join in the Christmas festivities in Pulaski and celebrate the end of a great fishing season!

We actually went to Oswego to chase the fish, so Jared's knowledge and flexibility really helped. The salmon run is a little slow due to the lingering heat right now.

Dress warm, bring extra layers. You won't be walking far so having the extra layers to keep warm will only make your day more enjoyable. Waders with felt bottom or spikes to hold yourself in place on the rocks.

I would recommend dressing extra warm if you are going in the winter months. It can get brutal out there. Expect to be on the river for a good 4-6 hours and be patient, the bite will come

We had an awesome day out on the water with Captain Ryan of Locked with Lorensen. From the moment we met him, he was friendly, professional. He made the whole experience relaxed and fun, and we landed some amazing fish throughout the trip. Ryan was not only knowledgeable but also just a genuinely great guy to spend the day with. If you're looking for a top-tier fishing experience with someone who knows how to put you on the fish, this is the charter to book. We’ll definitely be back!

My husband, 13-year-old grandson and I were extremely lucky yesterday to go with Captain Justin on a fishing trip on Lake Ontario. The captain went out of his way to not only make this trip, an enjoyable one, but also an educational experience The highlight, of course, was when my 13 year-old grandson caught a trophy brown trout. We want to thank Captain Justin for an unforgettable experience and highly recommend this trip to others. Susan

Start to finish, the trip was great. Caught bass within 10 minutes of throwing out lines. Ryan knows the lakes very well and where the fish run. All went as planned start to finish. Inspite of the rain and cold, we stuck it out to catch many fish. “Highly” recommend Lorensen on the River for a much sought after fishing experience!
