    Unbelievably Amazing 1st time experience

    Half Day Trip (AM)6 adults2 children

    Greg and Jeff’s communication, knowledge, and patience throughout the entire trip were amazing and reassuring. They made the experience fun, comfortable, and enjoyable from start to finish. They had everything we needed to make the trip successful and memorable. We caught a lot of fish, ranging from 10–20 pounds! They also cleaned and packed the fish we wanted to keep, which made everything so easy. All we needed to bring was a cooler and some snacks—everything else was provided. Overall, it was an amazing experience for my family and me. We had a great time, made wonderful memories, and will definitely be back!

    Reported catch:
    Chinook Salmon

    Thank you so much for joining us today. We are always so happy to see your reaction when those big king salmon hit the deck! So much fun for us!

    Multiple trips with Captain Jeff

    Full Day Trip

    I've taken 5 trips with Captain Jeff over the last 3 years, with 2 different groups of guys. Each trip has been a great time and everyone has returned for multiple trips - and plan to continue doing so. Captain Jeff is knowledgeable, entertaining, and hard working, as are his various first mates. They are passionate about making sure everyone has an enjoyable, successful day. 4 of the 5 trips have seen very active fishing - everyone limited out on two of them (mostly salmon with a few steelhead), and close on the other two. The 5th trip was well outside typical active salmon season, and the captain and mate worked hard that day to find other fish and still make the day successful. The boat is very nice and easily accommodates 6 adults for a full day trip. We highly recommend Jammer Fishing!

    Reported catch:
    Coho Salmon
    Chinook Salmon
    Rainbow Trout (Steelhead)

    We were so happy to be able to put together a couple solid boxes of silvers for you gentlemen again this year. Thank you for being a consistent and generous return client! It is always fun to have you guys on board.

    Half Day Trip (AM)4 adults

    This is our second trip too late Ontario salmon fishing with a charter. Our first trip was a great experience. We caught a lot of fish. However this trip was even better we caught 12 fish a 16ld, 15 ld, 14ld King Salmon and the other 10 were all nice fish. We also landed 2 lake trout and a brown trout which were also very nice. Captain Jeff and the first meet Greg were very experienced and very helpful. They kept us on the fish and we're very patient with educating as well. I will recommend this Charter to anyone interested. We are already planning a trip next year. We will be happy to see Captain Jeff and First Mate Greg again. This was a action packed 5 hour charter. We highly recommend Jammer Sport Fishing.

    Reported catch:

    We had so much fun having you and your family on board! You all did a great job getting those fish to the net. Looking forward to seeing you again soon. Thank you again!

    Great experience!

    Half Day Trip (AM)4 adults

    Captain Jeffrey and his first mate, Matthew (the Captain's son) were excellent. They were very professional, friendly, stressed safety, and were a wealth of knowledge. Some people in our party had little to no fishing experience and the crew were very thorough in describing how all the equipment and lures worked, as well describing the "science" of fishing. We only landed 2 out of 5 fish, but there had been many storms recently, including a small craft advisory with very large waves, for 3 days prior to our trip, that likely disrupted the lake and impacted the catch. The cabin boat was in good shape and having a flushing head was a plus. Overall, it was a very positive experience and we plan to book another trip with Captain Jeffrey.

    Response from Captain

    We enjoyed having you and your family on board for a fun Father’s Day excursion. The day after a big blow is always a challenge. Thanks for recognizing that and looking forward to the next trip together. See you then!

What's biting with Jammer Sportfishing in Rochester

Just like most New York ports, Rochester is all about Salmon fishing in September. It's the perfect time to catch your limit of this amazing fish and have fun doing it. The Trout bite is not slowing down either and, on longer trips, you may be able to go after both.
