Vladislav Muravin, Captain at Smackdown Sportfishing

Welcome to Smackdown Sportfishing - your gateway to the amazing and memorable experience of fishing for Salmon, Trout, Walleye, and other species on Lake Ontario, Erie, and Huron.


My name is Captain Vlad and I am inviting you to join me for trip of a lifetime fishing for salmon, trout and walleye. I am dedicated to providing my guests with unforgettable fishing adventure, making memories, putting smiles on their faces and fish in the boat! Should you wish, your catch will be cleaned and filleted to be cooked and served at the family dinner.


I have been fishing since I was a child back in Ukraine. Though I am relatively new to Great Lakes and chartering, I am very enthusiastic and meticulous about the proper trip planning, execution and achieving results. This ensures, trip after trip, great success.


All guests are automatically entered into the SCGFA Spring Salmon Derby, the GOSD Salmon Derby, and the SCGFA Fall Derby. Over the past seasons, I am proud to say that all I have won and shared over $10,000 in prizes with my guests.


You will be fishing in a 20ft Lund Tyee, equipped with a powerful 225 HP Supercharged Mercury Verado and a 9.9 HP Mercury Pro Kicker. This versatile boat ensures a comfortable and effective fishing experience.


The charter service will cover various prime fishing locations of Lake Ontario. We generally start the season in the south shore of Lake Ontario, with trips departing from Port Dalhousie, until approximately late May. As the springs transitions into the summer, the trips will be done from Bluffers Park Marina until approximately early October. In the fall, we return to the south shore and fish from Port Dalhousie weather-permitting until the end of the season.


For Lake Erie, we offer trips from Port Glasgow between June and September, as well as on Lake Huron from Grand Bend from May to September.


Guests are asked to bring only their favorite snacks and drinks, fishing license. I will always call you the day before and advise on proper clothing as well for the upcoming trip. We have everything else on the boat including high-quality 60 SPF sunscreen that we use in our family. 


Whether seasoned anglers or novices eager to learn about Great Lakes fishing, I invite you to join me for an unforgettable fishing experience. Book your next adventure today and create lasting memories on the water!

Our day on the water with Captain Vlad was truly exceptional. From the moment we boarded, his expertise and passion for fishing were clear. Captain Vlad took the time to thoroughly explain each aspect of the fishing process, ensuring we were fully engaged in the experience. We not only reached our limit but were also impressed by the quality of our catches. The highlight was a massive 20.20-pound salmon, which stood out among an array of exciting catches including king salmons, cohos, and Atlantics. What sets Captain Vlad apart is his commitment to sustainability. We were pleased to see some of the fish released back into the water, helping to preserve the ecosystem for future generations.

I booked this charter fishing trip as a birthday gift for my 72-year-old father, and it turned out to be an incredible experience. I also brought my 13 and 15-year-old teenagers, and everyone had a blast. Captain Vlad's deep knowledge of the lake made all the difference. We ended up catching 16 fish in total, releasing 5 and keeping 11, which included 5 impressive salmon weighing 19-20 pounds each, along with 6 assorted trout. This trip is perfect for family outings. If you bring your wife and kids, you’re sure to have a memorable time. It’s definitely worth every penny!
