Fishing4Tails Guide / Charter

Today I had a full boat 4 kids and 3 adults….consisting of my wife Sharyn , our 3 kids Layla , Ethan and Noah. My sister from Florida and my niece Renee ….We had a great day on the water with flat conditions , no clouds , and no winds!! We went for a little run on the boat to the keep the kids happy stopping once in a while to drop the lines.  We had lunch at the Bluffs and then went back for some more fishing.. The kids were great on the boat , each talking a turn in driving the boat and fighting the fish. We got some great shot of the all of us on the boat including the first salmon Caught by my niece Renee…Nice one!!!

18 lbs Rainbow Trout

Well today I had a day off ….of course I went fishing back to Lake Ontario to try some new lures and areas . I Boated 19 fish that day fishing solo with a few rainbows in the mix…I guess the new area and lures worked..lol …I did get a big Rainbow Trout off the riggers down deep ona meat rig…37″ long and 18 lbs!!!    This fish put a show on for me with all the jumping around the boat, the fish was released to get even bigger!!!

Fished today with Frank and his son, We have been getting many father and son charters over the past years and it nice to see the time spend together…Now back the the report …We fished the Island today , most fish today were on spoons and few on the meat rigs, we ended up 6 for 13 .   with a few around 18-19 lbs .  These fish pill so hard they do a number on my tackle , and respooling line every week or so!! But all worth the power they have!! Long runs… hard head shakes …and sore arms !!! Gotta love Salmon !!

Billy and a few buddys from the Ottawa area was on board today for an all day charter…today the fish were on the chew!! We boated 19 Salmon all chinooks with the average being aroumd the 20 lbs mark up to 26 lbs . The Salmon were a hard fighting bunch of fish taking long runs up to 400 ft at once making the fight even more fun!!  Another great day!!

The days catch!!

We had a afternoon charter for Salmon with Peter Kong and  two colleagues…fish was again petty good with 10 salmon landed in the boat. The size today was smaller on average as the fish are starting to move to deeper water and scattering around the lake. We did manage to fish 10 fish with some salmon taking some nice long runs..

Afternoon catch!!

Well back out again today for a P.M. charter With Andrew R.  and his friends from out of town(Ireland). we fish the island getting on to the fish right away..just where I left them from the morning . We landed 19 that evening with a few more lost …a great time on the water most hits were again on meat but some on leadcore with spoons and few on wire with flies…..Great numbers that day!!!

Today I had Chris Petty From Texas with his two sons who love to fish for the morning charter …We boated 9 salmon that morning with most biting a  meat combo with a spin doctor …The boys had a great time fighting those fish close to the 20 lbs class since their personal best fish previous to our outing was a 2 lbs bass….sure was nice to see them haul in those nice salmon!! Im sure they went back to Texas with some great storys about catching big fish right from downtown Toronto.

For the next 2 days I had Robert  and Max from Montreal for Salmon . We started off the island where the fish have been holding for last few weeks . The first day was pretty good with 12 landed but the fish were hitting very light resulting in 11 lost that day…Thats fishing!!! We did get a double header on the trip..which always makes some excitment on the boat. On Day 2 we landed 6 Salmon with 5 others lost during the battles. The conditions were pretty good just the fish were slower than the days before. Here some nice pictures from the 2 days.
