Salmon fishing has been picking up recently! 
Unfortunately another motor issue has us temporarily down, we'll be filling in trips on a backup boat in the time being and will probably have to move some of your trips around so please bear with me!
With the onslaught of continued engine issues trying to bring larger groups out and especially in larger waves, any future trips booked will be limited to four passengers.
 Trying to put a fifth and 6th person on the boat just puts too much added stress to get the longevity out of our single engine inboard. 
Any trips currently booked with five or six people will still be run and we can adapt as needed. 
Thanks for everyone's continued support and look forward to fishing with each and every one of you everyday!

What a great day on the water, couldn't ask for more action! I took Chris out for an early summer fishing adventure on Lake Ontario, launching from the Lighthouse & Marina in Pulaski, NY. We set out at the crack of dawn, hitting the water around 5:30 am. The weather started off a bit iffy, but it cleared up nicely in the afternoon, giving us perfect conditions for our trip with Over The Rail Sportfishing.

Once the stage was set, we got down to business, focusing on some prime spots near the Deer Creek Marsh Wildlife Management Area. We mixed it up with a variety of techniques - trolling, jigging, and bottom fishing - to see what would get the fish biting. Our persistence paid off big time when Chris hooked into a monster Rainbow Trout. This beauty measured in at an impressive 90 inches - a catch that'll be hard to top! We kept at it, working different areas of the lake and adjusting our approach as needed. The combination of techniques we used really seemed to do the trick, keeping things interesting throughout our time on the water.

As the day went on, the improving weather conditions only added to the overall experience. The clearing skies in the afternoon made for some great fishing conditions, and we took full advantage. While that massive Rainbow Trout was definitely the highlight, we enjoyed steady action throughout the trip. Chris showed some real skill, adapting to each technique we tried.

With our gear rigged and ready, we hit the water, eager to see what Lake Ontario had in store for us. We employed a mix of techniques, alternating between trolling, jigging, and bait casting as we worked different areas of the lake. Each method had its moments, and we kept at it, adjusting our approach based on what the fish seemed to prefer. While we didn't land any keepers this time around, the constant action kept us engaged and hopeful. As the day progressed, we saw some afternoon rain, but it didn't dampen our spirits one bit.

Reel in the Excitement: Lake Ontario's Early Summer Bonanza!

Non-Stop Action: Lake Ontario Fishing Near Pulaski, NY

After what seems like forever, the winds and snow died down today for the fellas from Long Island to come up and get out after some perch and pickerel! It was a slower pick on the tipups today and only had about a dozen flags and managed to land 2 small pickerel, and a 2 lb smallmouth bass! Lots of short runs and then spit the bait, and a handful of missed fish as well where they just came unglued. Jigging action however proved worthy today and the fellas managed to each jig up a few perch and learn the electronics. They kept a few of the larger ones for the grease and released all the smaller fish! Was a great time out on the water on a gorgeous day! They experienced stiff winds last year's trip so they saw what the difference weather can make! Several other groups out fishing picked at some perch and also were lacking in pickerel. Snow was fairly deep around 4-7inches and the ice was 16" thick! Snowmobiles and atvs were driving around and we did watch the schools of fish move away quickly when a few approached and stopped to chat. Tip! (Fish can and do hear when you're making a lot of noise and sometimes they move on)

Walleye

Conditions for yesterday's scheduled "walleye slaughter" on Oneida Lake for Claudio and family were less than ideal! Confronted with relentless 15-20 mph winds and blowing snow squalls we deployed our shanty in 20 foot of water and went to work. Screens looked decent on and off throughout the morning but the fish just seemed to want to "sniff" every lure we deployed. Without being able to deploy more of our program and move around we spent the morning hunkered down and was able to put a few nice walleye and a short and one perch topside! We also missed 5 fish on tipups that could've helped sweeten the day but overall they had a great day and are looking forward to a trip on Lake Ontario this summer! It was a pleasure to fish with you guys!!

Jigging for Walleye and Perch on Oneida Lake utilizing all the latest technology! Eskimo shelters, Mr Buddy Propane Heaters, Garmin FIshFinders and Heritage Laker tipups are just some of the gear we use to put fish on the ice!
