Welcome to Wayne County
New York's GREAT LAKE getaway!
Fishing

Wayne County has a boat full of fishing options. Fish the mighty Lake Ontario; try your angling prowess in our four
embayments, or spend a delightful quiet day fishing the historic Erie Canal.

To enhance your adventure we are host to a number of derbies. The LOC Spring Derby, the Wayne County Pro-Am
Trout & Salmon Tournament and the LOC Fall Derby. For the young anglers the Grand slam & Merchants
Challenge Youth Derby runs from late Spring to the middle of August.

The fishing season opens approximately April 1st, when ice leaves the bays, and charter services place their first
lures in the water for some tremendous spring fishing. Targeted species during the early months include browns,
cohos, and steelhead. The action is non-stop. This type of fishing is truly an exciting adventure. Trout and salmon
fishing during the summer months in Lake Ontario switches to the mighty king salmon, with 30 pounders commonly
caught in Wayne County waters. The kings will be boated until late September.

For the bass angler, the third week in June until October has always provided rod bending action in Lake Ontario.
We can guarantee “smallies” from Wayne County! Perch will be in shallower water, and the creative angler can
enjoy a perch-bass shore dinner. What a taste!

Good Luck to you when you fish the trophy waters of Wayne County
