We started out slow, no fish or bites for a few hours, with a lot of northerly winds which inverted the water temps; Ryan kept trying different spots, 6 or7; we then tried some deep water spots, and after I put on my lucky hat we hit five nice lakers, including about a ten pounder I hit; Ryan knows lake Cuyahoga inside and out and was very persistent and did not give up, and he let us fish about an hour longer to catch some more fish; I highly recommend Ryan, he has this jigging techniques down to a science and it works well when you find feeding trout, ; we had a great trip, even though it did not start out well

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 and I recently went out on a trout fishing charter and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Captain Ryan was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about fishing, which made the trip both fun and educational.

The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. We hit great spots, and within a half hour we were already reeling in some beautiful trout. With my limited experience, Captain Ryan gave great tips on technique and helped make sure everyone on board had a chance to land something.

What really stood out was his attention to detail. He put us right on the fish—within his knowledge of the water, weather patterns, and trout behavior really set this trip apart from others I’ve been on.

If you’re looking to fish Lake Ontario, this is it!

Ryan is committed to providing his clients an excellent angling experience and a great day out. He knows the river and we hooked into many steelhead trout of all sizes. We drifted and plugged and were in fishing mode all day. When you hook fish on Ryan’s boat, he is very patient and provides steady instruction to give you the best chance of landing your fish to the boat. I like to fish hard but have fun too and Ryan has the personality to accommodate both speeds leading to a very enjoyable day. Great Guy and Angler and excellent Guide.I am an experienced fisherman but I enjoyed having Ryan as a guide because he managed to be Instructive and educational to help us get the best results on the river and land as many of the steelhead that we hooked and did it in a very natural and interactive way.

Captain Ryan was exceptional! We booked a 6-hour trip, but Ryan generously extended our time by an extra hour without us even asking. His extensive knowledge of the river and local species was impressive—he knew exactly where to take us, and we ended up catching two steelheads. The boat was comfortable and well-equipped, with a heater in the front to keep you warm. What truly set Ryan apart from other guides was his dedication and work ethic. He was constantly busy, whether fixing rods, untangling lines, or rowing the boat. Ryan was committed to making the trip memorable, and he exceeded all expectations. I’ll definitely be returning for some salmon fishing next time!
