I've always loved to fish as far back as I can remember. My earliest memories as a child always included a net, fishing pole, and being somewhere near water! As an adult, I have never lost that incredible passion for fishing. The best part of becoming a charter captain for me is being able to share the knowledge I've gained over the years with others for entertainment AND educational purposes. Whether you are just looking to have a fun day of fishing on the water or you want to learn more about how to successfully fish our incredibly unique fishery, I am here to help you! There are not many other places on earth where freshwater fishing is this diverse and available 365 days a year! All within about 20 miles... we have two great lakes (Erie and Ontario) and two world-class rivers ( Upper and Lower Niagara). Year after year people come back because they just can't believe the size (and numbers) of freshwater fish we catch here in the Niagara region. And THAT my friends is what drives me to want to work in this business.

    A day of KINGS!!!!

    Full Day Trip โ€ข 2 adults

    This trip was amazing from start to finish. Captain Dave put us on the fish right from the first line in the water. We were 18 of 22 with 15 King Salmon, 2 smallmouth bass, and a brown trout. The boat is well maintained and the fishing equipment was top notch. Captain Dave is very personable and extremely knowledgeable on the Niagara fisheries. If you plan on doing this trip get the 1 day Canadian license as well and make sure itโ€™s with Scipione Charters. All our Kings were in Canadian waters.

    Reported catch:
    Smallmouth Bass

    Great Day on Lake Ontario

    6 - Hour Trip

    Capt David put us on the fish for sure. Communications before the trip were clear and concise. The boat and gear were top notch. You could tell from the start that Capt David was knowledgeable, not only about fishing, but also about the history, ecology and lore of the Niagara region. You can rely on this experienced angler to do his utmost to put fish in the box.

    Reported catch:
    Lake Trout
    Atlantic Salmon
    Rainbow Trout (Steelhead)
    Response from Captain

    Harry, it was my pleasure to serve you kind sir. I'm so glad you enjoyed the trip!! Regards, Captain David
