Aug 15 Weekend recap report So what's been happening lately? Over on Lake Ontario we are now transitioning into "stager season". What does this mean? We'll dive deeper in detail into this topic in the next couple days. For now, in a nutshell things are slowly changing now as far as the habits of the larger mature salmon. Fishing is still pretty good across the lake out of most ports. Though as we typically see with summer full moon periods, it can slow down the action for a few days, especially the early morning flurry we get accustomed too. It...

Well let's start with Lake Ontario. It's been an interesting last few days that has seen periods of very good & very frustrating Salmon fishing around the Lake in various spots. Late last week Grimsby to Jordan was producing very well in 60-100 FOW. Temps were good & the kings were chowing down on big schools of bait in there. Over the weekend things changed & the fishing got tougher for mature kings. As you can see, we have some colder water now in the west corner. There's still good numbers of fish around (coho, Rainbow, lake trout & chinook)...

  Another Summer weekend has come & gone. Over on Lake Ontario, excellent fishing continues in different regions across the lake. As always during this time of the bite can change daily with wind & fluctuating water temps. 80- 150 FOW has been producing steady most days. Sometimes though mid day, treking further offshore can produce. Recently the morning bite was a little slower the fast days with the full moon & it turn it was a better afternoon/evening bite. Congratulation to Captain Cam Kilcar & Team Tail Chaser, the winners of our annual Salmon Dance tournament out of Port...

Weekend Recap Wow! Where do we start? With Lake Ontario Salmon of course! Some great action was had all over the lake the last few days. The NE winds from Saturday definitely set the table for those who fished Sunday. Many quality fish caught from Dalhousie, Grimsby, Bronte, Credit & Bluffers. We can't stress enough about the importance of having a Down temp & Speed unit ( Fish hawk, Sub Troll, Depth Raider or Smart Troll. As previously mentioned, when warm water is piled up inshore, it's very helpful to find the transition so your not unknowingly fishing in the "bath-water"....

Well for the most part it was a beauty long weekend for fishing! On Lake Ontario good Salmon continues across the lake. Most ports reporting fair to excellent numbers of fish being caught. A few keys to increasing the number of fish you will catch. 1) Watching the water temperature. If it's cold on the surface, you will likely mark less on the sonar as they will be higher in the column as the thermocline will be higher & less defined. If it's much warmer on the surface or even "homongenized" (warm from top to bottom) you will need to...
