Good Evening Walleye Wednesday Peeps!! Warm temps are in the air and we are getting closer and closer to the start of our May 1st 2024 Season!! More details to come!! When we met in February we mentioned that we are putting together a USSA fishing event for kids and their families on Friday June 28th at Oneida Shores. We are hoping to start the day with an antique car parade from the hotel in Brewerton to Oneida Shores. Boats will kick off at 9 AM and fish until 1 followed by a BBQ at the pavilion. We will have 12 to 15 familes so ouple of pontoon boats would be ideal but we are looking for anyone with a big enough boat that would be interested in taking a kid and their family fishing! Please send Keith Houser a message if you are able to help. Ain't no Wednesday like Walleye Wednesday!!

Looking for fishing charters? Check out Pura Vida Cruises

** update** The Pura Vida is currently fully booked for the 8th, but my friends at Dirty Goose Sportfishing will also be running that day (and we’ve ordered enough viewing glasses for everyone) so there’s still time if you’d like to get out, but seats are filling fast!

A total solar eclipse is truly a once in a lifetime experience. Occurring in the same place only once every 400 years, Lake Ontario will be at the center of it all on April 8, 2024.

Get a front row seat to this extraordinary cosmic occurrence from the comfort of the Pura Vida as we cruise the lake for the best view of the eclipse.

Seating is limited (6 people per boat).
