Redemption Charters

Redemption Charters, led by Captain Anthony Ellis, offers thrilling fishing experiences on Lake Ontario from its base in Olcott, NY. Whether you're a novice angler, an experienced hand, or introducing your children to the joys of fishing, Redemption Charters caters to all.

Lake Ontario is a premier fishing destination, known for its diverse aquatic ecosystems and abundant populations of sought-after species such as King Salmon and Trout.

Captain Anthony Ellis, a retired firefighter and paramedic, brings decades of fishing passion and expertise to every trip. His lifelong love for fishing, starting at the age of 5, is evident in his dedication to providing memorable experiences for each customer. Assisted by his son, who serves as the first mate, Captain Ellis aims for the success and satisfaction of every angler on board.

Guests embark on fishing adventures aboard a 29’ Aquasport fishing boat, equipped with twin 350 HP engines for swift navigation to prime fishing locations. The boat's design ensures ample space for up to 6 passengers, offering a comfortable and enjoyable journey to the fishing grounds. With downriggers and outriggers in place, anglers troll behind, using dead bait to entice the sought-after fish species.

Lake Ontario is renowned for its superb Salmon fishing, and Captain Ellis specializes in targeting the prized King Salmon. Known for their robust fight and delectable flavor, these fish provide an exhilarating challenge and a rewarding catch. As the reels screech with excitement, anglers spring into action, engaging in thrilling battles with these formidable opponents.

In addition to Salmon, Redemption Charters offers opportunities for bottom fishing, targeting Trout and Steelhead in shallower waters. While not as large as Salmon, these species provide their own brand of excitement, putting anglers' skills and endurance to the test. At the conclusion of the trip, the crew expertly cleans and fillets the day's catch, ensuring guests can take home their bounty to enjoy fresh seafood meals. Guests need only bring an appropriate cooler to transport their fish home, leaving the rest to Redemption Charters.

With provisions for drinks and snacks, guests can maximize their enjoyment of the day-long excursion with Redemption Charters. Whether seeking a thrilling battle with King Salmon or a relaxing day on the water, Redemption Charters invites anglers to experience the exceptional fishing opportunities Lake Ontario has to offer.
