Fantastic OrLeAnS CoUnTy, • NEW YORK • Why choose Orleans County, New York for your fishing pleasure? Big fish, two safe harbors, great marinas, a very knowledgeable fishing fleet and tributary guides are a few of the reasons Orleans County is the place to be. Not to mention - Point Breeze was deemed the Ultimate Fishing Town in 2013! We are a fantastic year-round fishery that is excep- tional in so many ways. There’s no denying that great fishing abounds all across Lake Ontario with what has become a world premiere fishery. Nowhere else can you catch the broad variety of fish offered, or the size and abundance that is obtainable here. Brown trout, lake trout, steelhead/rainbow trout, Coho salmon, Atlantic salmon and that King of the lake, Chinook salmon, all call Lake Ontario and its tributaries home. 74 | Fall 2017 | Adventure Outdoors But the question still begs to be an- swered, why Orleans County? Fully stocked tackle shops, fantastic restau- rants, comfortable lodging of the small, hometown type, and many interesting sites to see are just some of the things that make Orleans County unique. Friendly people who stand ready to help make your stay the most enjoy- able it can be is something you just don’t find everywhere - where life slows down to a much more enjoyable pace and allows you to be rejuvenated after dealing with the hustle and bustle that is today’s life. Orleans County is a place to take the kids fishing for all of the warm water species on a hot, lazy after- noon or walk part of the Erie Canal or better yet, visit the only place in New York State where you can drive UNDER the Erie Canal. As we like to say here in Orleans County: “Come visit us for a day--- you’ll be back for a lifetime.”
