I've had the best times chartering TSI for the last two years during salmon season. From my experiences, I can honestly say that captain Joe and first mate Kevin are the best charter fishing boat on Lake Ontario. They're incredibly skilled and knowledgeable and handle everything for you. So if you came from out of town with your family, or you’re a seasoned fishermen, you’re going to have a great trip catching fish with this crew. Both times I've gone out with TSI and my buddies, we've managed to come back home with a lot of filets. Captain Joe's familiarity with the lake and running his boat is impressive, and first mate Kevin truly knows how to hook you big fish. One thing that stood out to me was Kevin's communication with other charter boats on the lake pinpointing where the fish are hitting during day. That’s a pro move and shows the respect they have with other charter boats on Lake Ontario. TSI's goal is to put you over the best spots that day to reel in big salmon, plain and...

I just wanted to take a few minutes to express my thanks to both Capt. Joe and 1st Mate Kevin for the wonderful fishing trip provided for my son and me.. It is truly one of those experiences we will both remember forever. Landing our limits of big King salmon on both days of fishing is one thing, but having the time of our life doing it is what made it so special. We both thank Capt. Joe and Kevin for their patience and help in all of the techniques involved in successfully landing fish. Without Capt. Joe's knowledge and Kevin’s expertise in handling the back of the boat we would have been lost. I have fished for many years in many different places, but don’t think I have ever had the fun and excitement I had on your boat. And, sharing that with my son makes it unbelievably special. Please convey to Kevin that he made our fishing trip a very enjoyable one and I feel like he was not only a good 1st mate, but truly someone both my son and I consider a good friend. We had a lo...

Just returned after two beautiful days on Lake Ontario with Captain Joe and Kevin, and could not be happier with our crew and the entire experience. Most of us were rookie salmon fishermen, and even with 6 of us on board, Joe and Kevin really went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time and landed at least one or two salmons. I really liked the safety briefing and the discipline on board, but mostly how passionate they are about fishing and ensuring that everyone enjoyed themselves. They also kept us entertained the entire time while waiting for the fish to bite. Thank you gentlemen, keep up the good work; hoping to be back next year!
