Education
Captain Bill Lortz is the premier smallmouth bass charter captain on the Eastern Basin of Lake Ontario! Bill has been fishing on Oneida Lake and the 1000 Islands region for over 20 years. He has been tournament bass fishing for the past 16 years on both the local and regional level. I was introduced to guiding by my uncle who ran a successful charter business on Lake Ontario. Through my years of being a first mate on his boat I learned and experienced first hand the value of educating fisherman. Our goal at NY NORTHCOUNTRY BASSIN' is for you to not only catch fish but to learn. https://www.nynorthcountrybassin.com/about.html Accomplishments 2013 2nd place at Oneida Lake in Bassmaster Weekend Series Divisional Championship 2013 38th place BASS Northern Open on Oneida Lake 2013 3rd place at Henderson Harbor in Bassmaster Weekend Series 2012 5th place at Oneida Lake in Bassmaster Weekend Series Divisional Championship 2011 - 1st place at Lake Erie in Bassmaster Weekend Series 2011 - 5th place in Angler of the Year in Bassmaster Weekend Series 2011 - 20th place finish in BASS Northern Open on Oneida Lake Qualified multiple years for Bassmaster Weekend Series Nationals Three top 10 finishes in northeast Wal-Mart Bass Fishing League Three top 20 finishes in BASS Northern Opens Five top 50 finishes in FLW and BASS events 2007 Angler of the Year in ABBA Series 2007 FLW Everstart Series Championship qualifier Friendly Links
