My name is Mike Tankersly but many call me me Tank. My fishing “career” started with bass tournaments in 1988. Around 1998 I switched over to fishing walleye tournaments and have had much success at the local level.
Tournament achievements include:
- Multiple wins in the NEWT Circuit on Oneida Lake and Lake Erie
- Winning the UAW walleye tournament 3 times
- Three Oneida Lake Team Walleye tournament wins
- Oneida Lake Team Walleye tournament Team of The Year
- Making the Masters Walleye Circuit Championship twice
In 2018, after taking many friends and friends of friends walleye fishing and seeing the excitement they had when catching walleye, I decided it was time to make a change in my life and start guiding.
I retired from my full time job, bought a new Ranger boat, and got my Masters Captain’s license. Unfortunately I had a couple of minor medical setbacks in 2018. Now with all of that behind me I am ready to start guiding in 2019.

Come and enjoy one of Lake Ontario’s best fisheries on the Oswego River with Lake run fly and guide. Starting mid September large Chinook salmon begin to make their annual migration into the river system and the action is hard to beat!
Late October large brown trout follow the salmon into tributaries to gorge on eggs and prepare themselves for their annual spawn. While some browns return to the lake after spawning, many fish will winter over in the river giving the angler ample opportunity to fish for them throughout the winter and into spring.
November brings the crown jewel of Lake Ontario tributary fish, steelhead. A large, strong, and acrobatic rainbow trout that winters over in the river and spawns in the spring. Simply put, they are an awesome fish.
Come and and enjoy the incredible fishing aboard our 18’ jet boat, and see why Oswego county fishing is hard to beat!
