Tuna
Tuna fishing near Sackets Harbor is not practical. Tuna are saltwater species that inhabit the Atlantic Ocean. Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River are freshwater systems, making the presence of Tuna impossible. Targeting Tuna would require traveling far offshore into the Atlantic Ocean, well beyond the scope of fishing near Sackets Harbor. Anglers interested in Tuna fishing should consider locations along the Atlantic coast.
