Fish of the St. Lawrence River
The St. Lawrence River boasts a world-class fishery teeming with a diverse array of freshwater fish making it a popular venue for Bassmaster tournaments. Stretching across 1,864 islands between the United States and Canada, this pristine river is truly a fisherman's paradise. Throughout the charter season, anglers can expect to catch Yellow Perch, Walleye Small and Large Mouth Bass, Northern Pike, and, if fortune smiles, the elusive Muskellunge or Musky. Walleye and Northern Pike season start the beginning of May, while Bass and Muskellunge open on the third Saturday of June. Depending on the targeted species and the time of year we employ various fishing techniques, primarily bottom fishing and trolling.
Gearing up for a charter
TI Fishing Charters is based in Alexandria Bay,, offering Half or Full Day charters for up to 6 people, with an optional Shore Lunch available. For larger groups or corporate outings, additional boats can be arranged. Typically, clients are picked up at 8am from the Upper James Street Dock in Alex Bay, but changes to the charter times and pickup location can be accommodated with prior notice. We supply all necessary bait, tackle, and safety gear for a successful fishing experience. Children under 13 must wear a life jacket on board, and all individuals aged 16 and older are required to have a fishing license. Please consult with Captain PJ to determine whether a NY or Canadian fishing license is needed; both can be purchased online.
