2012 - Our 30th Year of Successful Fishing Charters on Lake Erie and Lake Ontario
Fishing News From Captain Tom Straus
2013 Our 30th Year of Successful Fishing Trips from Lake Erie and Lake Ontario
Well
another phenomenal year fishing Lake Erie and Lake Ontario has passed
quickly and I hope this letter finds you well. We have caught more Fish
Ohio walleyes than any other year we have been in business. Along with
great smallmouth bass fishing and jumbo perch jerking in Canadian
waters, I'd say this has to be a career record year.
Lake Ontario this year was also very good for The Explosive King
Salmon and Steelhead Trout. If you have never fished “Salmon” before, by
all means book a charter with us from Early July through mid August ,
2013. Battling a 20-30 pound “King” is truly a test of stamina, while he
leaps and dances across the pristine waters of Lake Ontario.
The seasons seem to be getting earlier every year
and if this continues we will be jigging walleyes in March again this
upcoming year.We predict that the spring and early summer bite will be
very good with some monster walleyes and bass fishing should really be
excellent. Also with the Canadian fishing license available to our
clients at www.on.wildlifelicense.com
we can now fish Canadian waters that has been virtually unfished in
the early season of the Western Basin of Lake Erie. Folks prime dates
are filling up fast, so please book your trip of a lifetime soon!
Thank You is in order for all of our faithful
responses on our website and Facebook, business has soared to the

As we go to press, the rising costs of everything
seem to threaten or economic recovery and people's plans for the summer.
Fortunately, taking advantage of the great recreational opportunities
here in Ohio and New York can be affordable. This is just one more
reason to stay close to home and enjoy all that our region has to offer.
Filling your freezer full of freah fish fillets couldn't hurt anyone,
that's for sure!
The Erie Drifter Team would like to thank each and every one of our
fellow fisher 's for your continued support! We have had an extremely
great year and are excited about our future and the upcoming fishing
season.
Happy Holiday and remember our Goal is Your Fishing Success!
