You guys no better then I. Is there a right time to take a charter? Any boat recommendations? 

Four or five guys, from what I've read late June or early July seems like a good date. Not after a certain bite we just want action. 

Any help or recommendations would be very much appreciated.

I’ve been on Captain Matt Yablonsky’s charters twice now. Both times we were chasing King Salmon. Both times we limited out. He goes after everything though. He talks, jokes busts balls etc with ya as well as walk you through what he’s doing as far as set up goes if your interested in knowing that stuff

I've been going 2 - 3 times a year for about 5 years now and absolutely love it! Went with a great captain for the first 4 years then he retired and recommended us to another that we went out with twice last year. 1st time we did pretty good, 2nd time we absolutely crushed em! Trout One Charters. Bryan is great guy and a great captain. From my experience April and May they usually troll really close to shore and the action can be very good. Usually a mixed bag of fish because they're all in shallow water at that time. Could catch kings, browns, steelhead, or lakers. June, July and August are usually all about kings but I do remember 1 July trip where we limited out on browns. Mid summer can be a little hit or miss depending on weather. Sometimes it's great and sometimes it's a struggle. September can be the best time for kings and coho. We always try to go somewhere near labor day and it's usually killer because they're stacking up near the mouths of the rivers. I've only fished the eastern side of Ontario so I'm not sure if it's different towards the west side. When they're biting it's about as fun as it gets though!

Capt Matt told us mid to late August is the best time for big Kings. Everyone should experience having a big King on the line at least once in their life. So much fun and good eating as well.

What part of Lake Ontario you looking for?  Several good charters on eastern side of the lake go out of Oswego and Pulaski area.

Go to Facebook and look for Make The turn charter . That’s a friend of mine , LT  in the Roch FD and solid fisherman ,he runs out of Oak Orchard i believe, a number of Buffalo Sabers book him if that,means anything . He gets bookings from many out of staters as well . Discount for military and first responders too .

If you ever need another person on the summer trips, let me know.  I haven't been in probably 20 years.  None of my buddies are interested.

I’m in the same “boat”.  Would be fun to have a Charter GTG.

Ya, I live close to 518BowSlayer. Makes it nice to have company on the trip, and sharing the trip expenses is a bonus.  

@Otto, where about are you? I'm East of Albany.

My buddies and I have been going out of Oswego with T-K  Charters. Captains Bob and Tom. Father and son. Usually the high boat in the harbor each day. Been going for over 20 years, multiple trips per year. Late April and May are the best for browns, Lakers any time and Mid August thru early sept for Kings.
