If you're looking to fish the deep, productive waters of Lake Ontario, Relentless Charters out of Olcott, New York is ready to put you on some serious action. Captain Dan Owens brings years of local fishing experience to the table and offers fully outfitted trips for anglers of all skill levels. Whether you're chasing big Salmon or hard-fighting Trout, this charter delivers the kind of trip that keeps people coming back year after year.
Lake Ontario is known for its rich fishery, and with Captain Dan at the helm, you’ll have a real shot at landing Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Lake Trout, Brown Trout, and Rainbow Trout (Steelhead). These species are all targeted using proven trolling techniques, and the setup on board is built specifically for this style of fishing. You’ll be using heavy tackle along with downriggers and dipsey divers to get your baits in the strike zone.
Your trip will take place aboard a 28’ Baja 280 Fisherman cuddy cabin—ideal for groups of up to 6 guests. Powered by twin 300 HP Chevrolet engines, the boat has the speed and stability needed for a full day on big water. It comes equipped with GPS, sonar, and fishfinder, along with a portable toilet and a shaded area to make your trip comfortable from start to finish. A professional first mate will also be on board to help manage lines and assist with fish handling.
Families are more than welcome, and kids can join in on the fun, too. All rods, reels, tackle, and lures are included, so there’s no need to bring your own gear unless you want to. You’ll need to purchase a valid New York State fishing license before the trip, and you’re encouraged to bring any snacks or drinks you’d like for the day. If you decide to keep your catch, Captain Dan will clean and fillet your fish at no extra charge. The season runs strong from spring through early fall, with peak Salmon action typically in the late summer months.
Captain Dan takes pride in making every trip enjoyable and informative, always happy to share tips or answer questions about the local fishery. Safety is a top priority, and the vessel is fully outfitted with all required life jackets and safety gear. The dock is conveniently located in Olcott, with nearby parking and restaurants for before or after your trip. Whether you’re visiting Western New York or a local looking for a day on the water, Relentless Charters is a great choice.
