Buffalo Fishing Charters: Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is included in your Buffalo fishing charter rates?
Every private charter rate includes all necessary fishing tackle, rods, reels, live bait, and custom lures tailored to the seasonal bite. Captain Kyle Kokanovich provides hands-on instruction for all experience levels, as well as complimentary fish cleaning and bagging at the end of your trip.
2. Do I need to purchase a New York State fishing license before our trip?
Yes. All anglers aged 16 and older are required by state law to possess a valid New York State fishing license prior to boarding. Licenses are not included in the charter price and can be purchased quickly online via the NYS DEC website or at local sporting goods retailers around Buffalo.
3. How do deposits and payments work for booking a charter?
A deposit is required at the time of booking to reserve your specific date on the calendar. The remaining balance is due on the day of your charter. Payments can be made via cash or major credit cards.
4. How many anglers can fish on a private Lake Erie or Niagara River charter?
Charters are kept as private, focused groups to ensure comfortable casting room, personalized guidance, and maximum time with lines in the water. Specific passenger limits per trip type are listed directly on the booking menu.
5. What species do we target during different seasons in Western New York?
Trip offerings shift seasonally to target the productive waters across Buffalo and Western New York:
Spring: Lake Erie walleye, trophy smallmouth bass, and Niagara River trout.
Summer: Peak Lake Erie walleye trolling, yellow perch, and smallmouth bass.
Fall: Niagara River salmon and steelhead, along with late-season walleye.
6. What is your weather and cancellation policy for Lake Erie fishing charters?
Safety on the water is the absolute top priority. If unsafe weather or heavy water conditions prevent a trip from running, Captain Kyle will evaluate conditions and contact you as early as possible. Weather cancellations initiated by the captain will be rescheduled for a mutually agreeable date, or your deposit will be refunded in full.
7. Can we keep the walleye, bass, or salmon we catch?
Yes. Guests are welcome to keep fish that fall within legal NYS DEC season dates, length requirements, and daily bag limits. At the conclusion of the trip, Captain Kyle will clean and bag your catch so it is ready for your cooler.
8. What should guests bring on board for a full or half-day trip?
To remain comfortable on Lake Erie or the Niagara River, guests should pack:
