Once called “Fishville,” this town on the eastern shorelines of Lake Ontario lives up its former name. On a Pulaski NY fishing trip, you’ll have access to the smallest of the Great Lakes as well as the incredible Salmon River and the Douglaston Salmon Run. If freshwater sportfishing is your cup of tea, head on over!
While you can fish in Pulaski year-round, what you’ll catch will depend on where and when you go. Between April and October don’t miss out on the opportunity to explore Lake Ontario. Here, you can expect to hook into the likes of trophy Brown and Lake Trout, as well as Salmon in the deeper waters offshore.
If you’re here in the fall, chances are you came for the Chinook and Coho Salmon run. In that case, the Salmon River and Douglaston Salmon Run are where you want to be. These tributaries of Lake Ontario are stocked with delicious pink-fleshed fish and also offer excellent Steelhead fishing in the colder months.
Since the majority of anglers come to Pulaski in pursuit of Salmon, full day trips are the most commonly offered option. If you don’t have that much time to spare, a half day trip on Lake Ontario can put you on tasty Trout.
Where you’ll find a charter will depend on what fish you’re chasing. Head to the shorelines of Lake Ontario in the summer to find productive Trout charters and to the Salmon River in the fall to go after Chinook and Coho.
Правила и положения
Your charter captain will provide you with fishing gear, but you’ll be responsible for buying a fishing license for all anglers over the age of 16. The Salmon River is subject to strict regulations and it’s best to head out with a reputable captain if you’re new to the area.
