Niagara River

Niagara River Drift fishing from December thru April from Lewiston New York to the Niagara River Bar at Youngstown teams with big Steelhead, Brown, Lake Trout, Walleye and Muskies. Fall, winter and spring runs tend to overlap for consistent results. Aboard the Johnny "O" a 2002 20' Lund Fisherman , you drift fresh roe, golden or emerald shiners, on 6-10 lb. test drift tackle.
Attention steelheaders: bring your own rod!
