HAWG MASTER CHARTERS features year round fishing on the Niagara River and Lake Ontario for both cold water and warm water species. Anglers of all ages will have the opportunity to catch a fish of a lifetime. Captain Jim is fully licensed and insured with over thirty years of fishing experience on the Great Lakes.

The Niagara River offers four seasons of exceptional fishing.
WINTER fishing in the Niagara River is by far the most spectacular fishing of its kind. This steelhead fishery produces both large numbers and trophy fish that range up to 20 pounds.

SPRING is the time to fish for steelhead, brown trout, lake trout and salmon. Or, if you prefer, you may choose to fish for trophy bass in Lake Erie.

SUMMER is for those who prefer smallmouth fishing. Imagine spending a summer day catching 50 or more bass or enjoying a day drifting for walleye on the Niagara Bar.

FALL brings opportunities to fish the upper Niagara River for Musky. If salmon is what you are looking for, this season brings an incredible run of kings, some topping the 30 pound mark.

Fishing Lake Ontario also offers extraordinary fishing opportunities.
If downrigging is your first choice, consider fishing on Lake Ontario. The port of Olcott, located between the Niagara River and Point Breeze, offers one of the most productive locations on Lake Ontario for sports fishing. This area has proven to be an excellent spot for brown trout, salmon and steelhead!
