Billy V Sportfishing

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-sized trout and salmon. We're always trying new things in an effort to catch more fish; charter us for a fishing trip for a day or two and you'll most likely see a lure or technique you've not seen before. We regularly field test the very latest equipment and tackle for our sponsors and we're more than willing to share the hot set-ups and lures with you.

I look forward to seeing you on the water in 2010!

We know that it's all about the fishing for you and we're committed to putting as many BIG fish in the boat for you as we possibly can. One trip to Lake Ontario and I'm sure you'll be hooked. We're looking forward to seeing you in 2010; give us a call today to book your Lake Ontario charter!

This King was part of a huge box of salmon that we caught to win the Captain Jack's Shootout in Sodus Point in 2009. We also took the 3rd place King in the 2009 Summer LOC Derby that same weekend.

We took this King off of Fair Haven while fishing the Mustad Challenge in 2008. The 25.12lb King was the big fish of the tournament, won the Shane Zimmerman Memorial Big Fish Award, and ended up in 17th place in the 2008 Summer LOC Derby.

Another successful Tournament weekend: We led the 2009 Wilson King of the Lake tournament after Day 1, and ended up placing 4th at the end of the weekend. We caught over 40 fish in two incredible days on Lake Ontario.

In 2009 we added an incredible new fish finder to the boat. The Humminbird 1157C features a massive 10.4" display, DualBeam PLUS sonar with 1,000 watts RMS power output, GPS Chartplotting and advanced Fishing System capabilities including:

We've been very happy with this new addition and we're sure that you'll enjoy it too!
