Cold Steel Sportfishing Charters

Cold Steel Sportfishing Charters takes anglers out on Lake Ontario in search of trout and salmon. The business is based in Altmar, an Oswego County community on the Salmon River, a waterway well known for its salmon and steelhead runs. A charter is a way to get past the shoreline and fish the big water of the lake.

Chartering a boat is a good way to reach the deeper water where the big fish are. Oswego County’s Lake Ontario shoreline and tributaries draw anglers from well beyond the county each year, and the state’s Salmon River Fish Hatchery in Altmar is part of that story. The business is featured by Visit Oswego County.
