Come Aboard!

Fishing on Eastern Lake Ontario out of Henderson Harbor offers some of the best fishing in the U.S. with the targeting of Salmon, Lake Trout, Brown Trout, Bass and Walleye. Our goal for Milky Way Fishing Charters is not only to put fish in the boat, but also to provide you with a safe, enjoyable and memorable fishing experience for everyone of any gender or age!

The Milky Way is a 28' Albermarle twin engine hardtop with a stand-up head. The boat is equipped with the latest in electronics, fishing gear and U.S.C.G. equipment on board and guided by a U.S.C.G. licensed captain and charter guide with 30+ years of experience!

We can set up multiple boat parties, corporate trips and private charters. We also have a variety of restaurants and lodging available in the harbor area and will gladly arrange accommodations at your request. Give us a call at home at 315-938-5420 or on my cell at 315-783-3304.

Please come aboard the Milky Way with me and experience the best charter fishing Henderson Harbor and Eastern Lake Ontario has to offer!

Farmer's Yield Good in Gold Star Corporate Trip!

Gold Star's customers were treated to a 3-boat charter trip with Milky Way Charters. On Friday, Aug. 19th the crew headed out for a beautiful day on Lake Ontario to try their hand at fishing. Even though it has been a tough year for farming for these farmers, their time on the boats resulted in some not so tough fishing and a great day of getting away from the "farm." The Milky Way, along with 2 boats from the Saiff Charter fleet, caught limits of Lake Trout. After a few hours of good fishing, there was also some good eating when it came to trying out their catch of the day when Bill Saiff's Westview Lodge cooked up a delicious "shore" lunch for them back at the Lodge. Once again, the staff at the Westview did a great job of cooking and serving lunch to all the guys.
