The brief.

Run by Captain Matthew Nukho, Niagara Fishing Fin-Addicts operates guided fishing charters out of Welland, Ontario, covering the Niagara River, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario. Trips target walleye, smallmouth bass, jumbo perch, brown trout, steelhead, lake trout, and Chinook and coho salmon depending on the water. Charters run year-round and include all equipment and bait, with an optional Catch-and-Cook shore lunch. Nukho cites over 20 years of fishing and bear-hunting experience, beginning with saltwater fishing in New York City. Under the Elite Bear Outfitters brand, the operation also offers guided black bear hunts in the Parry Sound area, with one-day or one-week bait-hunting packages using tree stands and ground blinds.
