We'll cruise out on our 21-foot Grand Islander, fully loaded with top-notch gear and expert know-how to help you land the big one. With room for up to 4 guests, it's an ideal outing for family, friends, or even a solo trip if you're looking to really dial in your technique. So grab your hat and let's hit the water!
First things first - this isn't your average day on the pond. Lake Ontario is a world-class fishery, and we're talking about some serious fishing potential here. As soon as we push off from the dock, you'll feel the excitement building. Our captain knows these waters like the back of their hand, so we'll head straight for the hot spots where the fish are biting. We'll be targeting walleye primarily, but don't be surprised if you hook into some hefty pike or bass along the way. The lake can be like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get, and that's half the fun!
We provide all the gear you'll need, from rods and reels to bait and tackle. Our equipment is top-of-the-line stuff, regularly maintained to make sure you've got the best shot at landing that trophy catch. Don't worry if you're new to this - we're here to show you the ropes, from baiting your hook to setting the drag just right. And for you experienced anglers, feel free to bring your own lucky lures if you've got a favorite.
Alright, let's talk shop for a second. On Lake Ontario, trolling is often the name of the game, especially when we're after walleye. We'll set up a spread of lines behind the boat, using downriggers to get our lures down to where the fish are hanging out. It's a bit like playing chess with the fish - we're constantly adjusting our depth, speed, and lure selection based on what's working.
We might switch things up and do some casting if we spot some action near the surface or along the shoreline. The key is to stay flexible and read the water. Some days, the fish want a slow presentation with live bait. Other times, they're chasing flashy crankbaits at a good clip. That's where our local knowledge comes in handy - we'll help you dial in the right approach to maximize your chances of success.

Let's talk about the star of the show - walleye. These golden-eyed beauties are prized for both their fight and their flavor. In Lake Ontario, walleye can grow to impressive sizes, with fish in the 5-10 pound range not uncommon. They're notorious for their light bite, so staying alert is key. Walleye tend to be most active during low light conditions, which is why early morning or evening trips can be so productive.
Walleye behavior changes with the seasons. In spring, you'll find them in shallower waters as they prepare to spawn. Come summer, they often move to deeper, cooler areas of the lake. Fall can be a fantastic time for walleye fishing as they feed heavily to fatten up for winter. Their preference for cooler water means we often find success targeting them near thermoclines or around underwater structures where they like to ambush their prey.
While walleye might be our primary target, don't sleep on the other species we might encounter. Northern pike are like the lake's torpedo - all muscle and attitude. These predators can grow huge in Lake Ontario, and when they hit your lure, you'll know it. They're known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs that'll test your drag system and your arm strength.
Bass fishing in Lake Ontario is also top-notch. Both largemouth and smallmouth bass call these waters home, and they put up a fight that's pound-for-pound hard to beat. Smallies, in particular, are known for their acrobatic leaps and bulldog determination. Whether you're working a soft plastic along the bottom or twitching a topwater lure, hooking into a big bass is always a thrill.
Look, I could go on all day about the fishing here, but nothing beats experiencing it for yourself. This 4-5 hour trip is the perfect taste of what Lake Ontario has to offer. Whether you're looking to fill the freezer with some delicious walleye fillets or just want to enjoy a peaceful morning on the water with the chance at hooking something special, we've got you covered.
Remember, we're talking about a private charter here. That means the whole boat is yours - no sharing with strangers, no rushing to catch your share. It's all about you and your group having the best time possible. Our experienced guides are not just skilled anglers; they're passionate about sharing their love for the lake and helping you create memories that'll last a lifetime.
So what do you say? Ready to wet a line and see what Lake Ontario's got in store for you? Spots fill up fast, especially during peak seasons, so don't wait too long to lock in your date. Give us a call or book online, and let's get you out on the water. Trust me, once you experience fishing on Lake Ontario, you'll be planning your next trip before we even get back to the dock. See you out there!

Walleye are a prized catch here on Lake Ontario, known for their tasty white fillets and challenging nature. These golden-olive fish typically run 15-25 inches long, with trophy catches pushing 30 inches or more. You'll find them hanging out near rocky bottoms and drop-offs, often in 15-30 feet of water. They're most active at dawn and dusk, using their light-sensitive eyes to hunt. Spring and fall are prime walleye seasons when the water's cooler. Anglers love targeting them for their hard fights and excellent table fare. There's nothing quite like the subtle "thump" when a walleye hits your line. If you want to land one, try slow-trolling with crawler harnesses along underwater points and shelves. A local trick is to use glow-in-the-dark lures during low light periods - it really seems to trigger their predatory instincts. Just be ready for that telltale head shake when they're on!
