About the Captain

I'm your Captain, Bill Ruth. I've been fishing the waters of Lake Ontario for over 25 years and I hold a 25 ton USCG Master Captain's license. I specialize in trolling for trophy-size trout and salmon. We're always trying new things in an effort to catch more fish. Charter a fishing trip with us for a day or two and you'll most likely see a lure or technique you've not seen before. We regularly field test equipment for our sponsors and we're more than willing to share the hot lures and setups with you.
I hope to see you out on the water in 2008!

-Capt. Bill

Wow! That's a BIG Fish!

Fishing isn't just something we do. It's who we are. We live for those moments that stick with you for a lifetime. No matter if it's your first-ever fish, or a new personal-best trophy you're after, we can take you there.
Whether you're after the King of a lifetime, or a whopper of a Brown, we have the knowledge, tackle, and experience to put you in position for that trophy. We've chosen Fair Haven, NY as our home port because of it's season-long fishery. Not only is Fair Haven an excellent place to fish, it's also a relaxing place to bring your family. Fair Haven Beach State Park is just minutes away from the marina, and has arguably the best white sand beach in the State. And you'll never forget your first Fair Haven sunset. Give us a call today to book your Lake Ontario charter.

The fishing in 2007 was INCREDIBLE! These 9 Kings were part of another fantastic catch on July 14th, 2007 while we were fishing the Wayne County Pro-Am. Contact us today to book your 2008 Lake Ontario fishing charter!

We recently installed our new Furuno FCV-585 fish finder. The FCV-585 is a high performance, dual-frequency color digital echo sounder (50 and 200kHz) with a high transmission output power of 600 watts through it's bronze thru-hull transducer. One of the main features of the FCV-585 is the revolutionary digital filter. The enhanced DSP (Digital Signal Processing) technology helps adjust gain, STC and output power as well as suppresses main bang (echoes just below the transducer). The utilization of the DSP technology facilitates outstanding detection both in shallow and deep water. In short, we'll be fishin' in style with this addition!
