Well the king salmon finally decided to show up for their party on the east end of Lake Ontario! Of course with T-storms and young passengers I decided to take the easy route and brown trout fish. Which was quite productive with some of the nicest fish of the season coming to the net. Frog ice 20' back down 92' over 110-120 was HOT! We relied on the trout to keep us busy this weekend but that about to change. Several other charters trolling in 150-200' did very well on salmon and even a few steelheads mixed in. Green pro trolls with crinkle flies & chrome spin drs with mirage worked best run 115-130' down off the riggers- 350' off the dipsy divers- 500' of copper worked as well. The winds had finally settled and the temps improved dramatically over the weekend. Give us a call! We still have a few mornings and plenty of afternoons open. -Night trips will be starting around Sept 10- we run 2 trips a night and can accommodate large or small groups of anglers.
