Welcome to our all in one site for all your fishing, boating, weather and event needs for Western Lake Ontario and the surrounding areas.
 


January 2024


Welcome to our website where we provide boating and fishing info and news for the western part of Lake Ontario and its tributaries in New York State. We share links to other fishing reports, weather,charters, lodging and important fishing and boating related websites. We are located in Olcott, New York a great place to hook up with several species of fish. Best known for the incredible chinook (king) salmon, steelhead and brown trout fishing, we also have plenty of other species to make it a fishing adventure worth checking out. Large and smallmouth bass, coho and atlantic salmon, rainbow trout, walleye, lake trout, perch, northern pike, carp and several others.



Happy New Yearand welcome to our website. Winter fishing is kicking in and things have slowed up for the most part. It’s down to basically smaller trout at Fishermen’s Park. That is info according to our local daily anglers. We don’t know if there will be ice this year. Last year we didn’t get that kind of action. The way the weather has been this last week, ice might happen. The snow blasted into Buffalo, but here in Olcott, we can still see the grass. It's cold, so maybe some ice will show up.

We are on winter hours here at the Boat Doctors/Tackle Barn but do plan on heading into our 26th year in Olcott and bringing plenty of surprises and good things to come. The entire town is changing so we have to keep up with the Joneses. I’ll have plenty of links to share with a great selection of fishing charters and events. Have a great day!
