Hop aboard a New York fishing charter and you'll have access to some of the richest waters on the East Coast. The amount of different species found here is outnumbered only by the different waterways you can cast a line in. Whether it's a freshwater game fish or a saltwater monster you're after, New York's got it!
Opt to explore Lake Ontario and you'll have access to incredible Chinook and Coho Salmon fishing. That's not all, either. Brown and Lake Trout, as well as Steelhead, call these waters home. In the state's other numerous freshwater lakes, you can target Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, and Perch – to name a few.
If you'd prefer to fish in saltwater, things are just as exciting. In the summer months, don't miss out on the opportunity to head offshore for Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna. You can also bottom fish for delicious Black Seabass and Cod. Inshore and nearshore there's Fluke, Striped Bass, Tautog, and much more.
Trip options in New York are just as diverse as the fish. Head out on an extended full dayor even multi-day trip fromLong Island and target delicious Tuna varieties. Don't feel like going that far out? A half day saltwater trip puts you on Striped Bass, Fluke, and Tautog.
If you're after Salmon in Lake Ontario or the Salmon River, set aside a full day to get the most out of the action. Looking for a family friendly adventure? Bass and Trout fishing in the beautiful Finger Lakes region offers breathtaking views and rewarding catches.
