Background: "I have been a fisherman my entire life, I was raised fishing in streams and lakes from PA to Canada. I started fishing the Great Lakes in my 20s." Captain James got his captains license in 2002 so he could share his passion with others. The locals call his addiction to catch great fish the Salmon Fever. You will see in Capt. James unequaled dedication and commitment to the fishing success of every angler onboard.
Techniques: I like to help people enjoy fishing and catch fish. It gives me great pleasure to get someone hooked on the Great Lakes its a marvelous fishery!!

6 Hour Trip (AM)

Great Day on the water! We started out at 5:30 am still sleepy from the night before but that quickly changed once we got on the fish. Four of us went out and caught a total of nine fish. It was one of our best fishing experiences ever. Midway charters knows their stuff, had us on the fish in no time at all. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have a great time. Thanks guys, see you next year.

There must be a mistake! First of all author of review never stepped on the boat. Second no one one the trip used the bathroom. My bathroom is immaculate. I start my trip every day by telling my clients that my bathroom is reserved for women and poop emergencies,I do not let men into it as most times they’re drinking beer and there’s waves so there would be pee flying all over the place.

I save it for women and people that really need it. Men and boys pee in a cup in the back of the boat and throw it overboard I don’t know of any other way to do it. This review is absolutely false and wrong And I take offense to it, I guarantee i have the cleanest nicest bathroom on a charter boat on Lake Ontario.
