3rd time out with Rochester Sport Fishing, always a great time! The captain called Friday to report fishing wasn’t the usual spring salmon bite due to low water level, and offered to reschedule. We appreciated the honesty but decided to go out anyway. Glad we did! He had us on fish immediately, tripled up first thing in the morning, and ended up with several large northern pike (catch and release) along with a few big browns and a laker.

Captain Kip was an incredible host! We went out on May 30th, 2020 and he took total care of us. From amazing communication and directrions to his dock to excellent foresight and impeccable boating and fishing skills he really made our trip the time of our lives. The conditions were not great in the water he said, but he took us out anyway {at our request} and DID NOT DISAPPOINT! He told us the bite and the fight would be tough and we had an amazing day hooking up with 15 total fish landing 10 and keeping 8 all King Salmon!!! At true professional he took care of everything for us and was excellent about educating us on the lake and the species.
After the trip he cleaned all the fish for us and bagged it for transport home and instructed us on how to clean debone and store the meat.
I highly recommend Rochestersportfishing.com for Salmon and Lake trout charters, Captain Kip is an excellent guide, with top quality gear and a true professionalism in his service.

Went on a trip with the boys on May 8th 2021 and it was absolutely KILLER!!! Captain Kip is the man, know where the fish are. Went to one spot, no bites...20 minutes later Kip gets us on top of literally THOUSANDS of fish and we had a field day. Absolutely 10/10 recommend if you wanna have the best fishing experience in Western New York.

May 15, 2020 marked an unforgettable fishing trip with Captain Kip and (Gregor Gillespie) the best fisherman in MMA. The boat was beautiful, comfortable, well kept and extremely organized. I’m amazed with the amount of knowledge Kip has for the sport and his willingness to share everything he knows. He put 9 lines in the water at different depth, with various lures and constantly observed the water color, depth, and temperature. Within minutes our lines were slammed by numerous species, Norther Pike, Brown Trout, King Salmon, and Lake Trout. If you’re looking for a charter, look no further as he puts the KING in King Salmon!

Brandon and his team really have the customer in mind...from which port to use given weather and season, to working the depths and lures for maximum activity! This is our third trip with him and we have enjoyed each of them. This spring trio had us reeling in salmon and trout the whole trip. Prior trip had us catching 2nd largest salmon of last year's season. We plan on booking again -- looking forward to being out on the water!

6/5/2021 - Great Morning with Captain Kip! Landed 9 out of the 12 fish on. Kip is a great host and captain, always on the move, reading the lake and weather conditions, changing out lures on poles that weren't getting hit until he found the right set ups. All around stand up and KNOWLEDGEABLE captain. No question on if I’m going back only question is when!

Captain Kip is a total professional - had everything set up for a fantastic day on the water. Has top quality gear and electronics. We had a ton of action. Highlight of the day was a 25 lb king salmon that pulled out 1,750 feet of line.
Captain Kip is clearly passionate about fishing and I could tell her was just as excited as I was as we reeled em in.

Thank you Captain Kip! We can from Michigan to visit our son and daughter and went on a 5 hour fishing trip with Captain Kip. It was awesome! Caught a 23 pound salmon, coho, trout just to name a few. We were very impressed with Kip’s knowledge of the lake, where to locate fish, and how to reel in the big ones! We will definitely plan another charter trip with him when we come back to New York! Thanks again Kip

Just got back from a 5 hour trip with Captain Kip & Rochester Sport Fishing. What an incredible trip! Wish I could give 10 stars. Captain Kip was knowledgeable, professional, friendly and led throughout a morning where we caught 6 monster King Salmon and a large lake trout. One of the funnest trips I’ve been on, period. Highly recommend!

4/24/2022 Fished out of Braddock Bay with Capt Kip. Rough was an understatement; Kip gave us an opportunity to re book but we told him we would deal with the weather. Well the first few hours were tough but Kip worked his butt off and the water eventually settled down and the bit e turned on. We ended up with a mix of King Salmon, Browns a few Coho and even an Atlantic salmon.

do you take individuals fishing? My family is traveling to Rochester on Thursday evening and will be there all day Friday, may 3, and my 22 year old son is a fisherman but not the rest of us. Are you taking a group out that day that he might be able to join up with?
