The Oswego Harbor is a commercial shipping port. It is also the gateway to the NYS Barge Canal, better known as the Erie Canal. Its sheltered waters offer fisherman a refuge on those days when the lake is a bit to rough to venture out on. Fishing the Oswego Harbor can really produce some amazing results. In the spring it offers a fantastic fishery for brown trout and steelhead. In the summer bass and walleye fisherman are here in large numbers. As the summer nears it end usually in mid September the salmon will collect up in the harbor prior to the fall run. Once they have become concentrated in the harbor they offer anglers a wonderful fishing opportunity. The Oswego area of Lake Ontario has produced a World Record Coho Salmon as well as the New York State Record Brown Trout . Stephen M. Sheets of Woolrich, Pa., caught the record breaking coho that weighed in at 33.45 pounds on August 13, 1998. Tony Brown of Schenectady, NY caught the new state record brown of 33-pounds, 2-ounces on June 10, 1997. Both of these fantastic fish were taken by clients of local charter captains. |
Oswego River Fishing Guides |
| Healy Outdoors | Guide Michael Healy |
| When fishing with Healy Outdoors you can expect to target Salmon from September, Brown Trout, and Steelhead. Michael Healy has been guiding on the Oswego River for only a few years but don’t let that fool you. He is a young, hard working guide whose following his dream of perpetuating the sport of fishing and sharing the joy that fishing has given him all his life. He has experience in most, if not all fishing techniques used here on the rivers; spin fishing, fly fishing, centerpinning, and Spey fishing. He works hard and fishes even harder, so be prepared to follow him as he does whatever it takes for you to catch fish, even if you have to fish through a blizzard in sub-zero temperatures to make it happen ( I recommend taking his drift boat on those days, it has a heater.) |
| Cold Steel Sportfishing | Guide Tom Burke |
| A driftboat is basically a water taxi. It allows us to cover much more water during a day. Which can make a huge difference! You want to spinfish? Flyfish? not a problem. We will even provide top quality rods & reels. If you're the type who likes to feel the water rushing against your waders, just let us know and we will beach the boat at each hole while you wade & cast. We use our driftboat from mid-Sept. to mid-May. There are times however due to low water or concentrated fish, that we go to one area by foot instead of using the boat. |
