King salmon are moving closer and closer towards the Salmon River. Lake Ontario charters have been producing decent catches on most trips. There's even a few salmon starting up the Salmon River each day. On the last few charters out on the lake we've been fishing 50-60' straight off the river mouth. Salmon have been biting glow spoons, J-plugs and spin dr/flies down 10-20' off the bottom.
Going slower was the the key today-2.2-2.4 gps speed. A lot of BIG salmon have been taken lately, including a NEW world record coho caught on a charter boat out of the Little Salmon River - a whopping 34 pounds!!! We've had plenty of good kings in the mid 20s to low 30 pound range. We have dates open for charters and drift boat trips- including Sept. 4,8,9,10,11,15,17,18
