Battling Smallmouth Blitz at Buffalo's Port Small Boat Harbor

It was a cool and partly cloudy morning when Chris and their crew joined me for a Fishing Charter Buffalo NY | Private Morning or Afternoon 4 Hour Charter on the waters of the Port of Buffalo Small Boat Harbor. May is a prime time for lake fishing in this area, as the warming waters bring the Smallmouth Bass into the shallows, making for some excellent action. We met up bright and early at the Port of Buffalo Small Boat Harbor and got our gear ready to hit the water. Despite the light rain, the conditions were shaping up nicely - the water looked great, and you could feel the fish moving underneath. We started the day drifting the shoreline, working a variety of lures and baits to see what the Smallmouth Bass were keying in on. It didn't take long before the first rod started bending, and Chris was into a feisty Smallmouth that put up a great fight. We kept at it, working different spots and finding a consistent pattern, and the group was soon reeling in Smallmouth Bass one after the other. The weather may have been a bit dreary, but the fishing was anything but. The Smallmouth were aggressive and hungry, smashing our baits with authority and giving us some excellent battles. In between catching fish, we had the chance to take in the scenic Port of Buffalo Small Boat Harbor, watching the activity on the water and enjoying the peaceful vibe. Even when the rain picked up, the fish kept biting, and we had a blast staying on them. If you're looking to experience the best Lake Erie or Niagara River fishing has to offer, book your Fishing Charter Buffalo NY | Private Morning or Afternoon 4 Hour Charter with Just Fish Guide Service.

Drifting for Trout on the Scenic Buffalo Lake

We started the day drifting with beads, targeting both Rainbow Trout and brown trout. It wasn't long before David's rod doubled over, and he was into a nice Trout that put up a spirited fight. We got that one in the boat and kept working the area, finding a few more Trout willing to hit our baits. The action stayed steady, with us adding a few more fish to the cooler throughout the morning.Even on a day when the fish aren't biting as aggressively, these creek trips are always a good time. We had great company, the scenery was beautiful, and it was just nice to be out on the water enjoying the day. That's what makes these trips special—not just the number of fish you catch, but the overall experience of being out there with good people, taking in the sights and sounds of the lake.If you're looking to experience some of the best lake fishing the Buffalo, NY area has to offer, be sure to book a Fishing Charter Buffalo NY | Private Morning or Afternoon 4 Hour Charter with Just Fish Guide Service.

Smallmouth beat down

smallmouth fishing in late april-may is prime time fishing, for numbers and size. Heres an example 124 fish in just 5 hours yesterday afternoon, most over 3-5 pounds. these fish are hungry and can be caught many ways, from casting moving baits, to dragging something along the bottom, most of these fish are schooled up by the hundreds this time of year. This bite will only last about another month or so, now is the time to go, i have some dates available!

Battling Trophy Smallies on the Niagara River & Lake Erie

It was a cool and cloudy morning as I headed out with David Lord for a private fishing charter on the waters of Lake Erie and the Niagara River near North Tonawanda, NY. April is a fantastic time for targeting Smallmouth Bass in these parts, as the fish become more active with the warming waters. Despite the overcast skies, the conditions were shaping up to be quite favorable for an exciting day on the water. We launched the boat and started drifting, working various sections of the lake and river using a combination of live bait and artificial lures. It didn't take long before David's rod bent over, and he set the hook into a feisty Smallmouth Bass. The fish put up a spirited fight, stripping line and making powerful runs, but David kept his cool and carefully worked it to the net. After a quick photo, we released the bass back to the water unharmed. This pattern continued throughout the morning, with David hooking into several more Smallmouths, as well as a few Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout mixed in. The action was steady, and we had a great time working the lake and river for these hard-fighting gamefish. Between the flurries of activity, we took in the scenic views and enjoyed the tranquil atmosphere. Despite the overcast skies, the rain and snow held off, making for a comfortable day on the water. It was the perfect blend of excellent fishing and simply taking in the beautiful natural surroundings. If you're looking to experience the best of Lake Erie and Niagara River fishing, I highly recommend booking a private charter with Just Fish Guide Service. Whether you're targeting Smallmouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, or a mixed bag of species, we'll work tirelessly to put you on the fish and ensure an unforgettable day on the water. Our expert guides, top-notch equipment, and intimate knowledge of the local hotspots will give you the best chance at landing trophy catches.

October 29, 2025

Booked a trip with Justin for steelhead fishing. I went into the day expecting to hook onto one or two, but more to just learn and take in information since it was one of the first times float fishing. Needless to say the day turned into one of the best fishing days that I can remember. Justin knew the spots and techniques, and was able to get me on so many hook ups it was unbelievable. Without taking into account the countless times I didn’t set the hook fast enough and they got away. Definitely very knowledgeable and with a great attitude. You won’t be disappointed.

October 29, 2025

Was new to centerpin fishing, now I feel like a pro. . I know I’m not, but Justin sure is. He is very knowledgeable. He worked with me on setting a date, and even rearranged dates because he knew the water would be prime. Talk about professional! He was patient in teaching me some basics, provided good convo, and definitely put me on some fish. Really provided a great experience, and was definitely worth every penny. Looking forward to booking with him again with my girlfriend. I highly recommend Justin if your looking to catch fish, learn, or have a great experience.

October 29, 2025

Justin is very knowledgeable and a great guide. Knows how to put you on some good fish and provided a great experience.

October 29, 2025

Captain Justin exemplifies kindness and respectfulness. We appreciated his expertise and camaraderie, making for a delightful evening. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to book on another adventure with him soon!
