1120.3 | Late for Steelies | USRCV1::FRASCH | | Thu May 04 1989 14:02 | 8 |
| This is late for Steelies in the Salmon River! They should be out
in the lake by now. If the fishing is still good, I suspect it will
go down hill fast from here. The best times are March and April
for river fish.
Good Luck,
Don

1120.6 | From a more reliable source ??? | VICKI::DODIER | | Mon May 08 1989 13:49 | 8 |
| re:4
I just talked to 1 of 3 guys that just came back from the big
O. He said they all got skunked and very few fish were being caught
in general. He said the best has come and gone and they were a week
or two to late.

1120.7 | what is a reliable source? | CUERVO::GATH | | Mon May 08 1989 15:06 | 16 |
| Ray,
I just got back from the big O and with very little fishing
time we had 4-nice fish.
I think the problem with using such a small sample is that
it "may" be a refelection of the fishermen than how fishing
is . Or purhaps just Bad or good luck.
we didn't get in the water until afternoon and we were back out
by about 5:30.
I wouldn't say it was a great effort.

| re:7
Talking to the person I talked to, he indicated that there were
dead alewise (sp?) everywhere so the fish had little to no effort
in trying to find food. He said that even the sea gulls were so
full that they weren't even going after them.
I didn't ask what causes this (spawn maybe ?) but he indicated
the better times he had were prior to when the alewise were all
over.

1120.11 | Some Help? | NAVIER::VALOIS | | Wed Dec 26 1990 08:23 | 12 |
| Joe..
Last reports I have,indicate slow fishing in the Salmon River.
A little better fishing in the Oswego River...I was up there twice
last month and the situation was about the same then. The water
was high in the Oswego R. then and I figure than as it goes down
the fishing will improve.. the BIG males should start to move into
both rivers around now !
Anyway good luck ! and stay warm !

1120.13 | I LOVE NY FISHING(thats why I moved here) | USRCV1::GEIBELL | NOTHIN LIKE FISH ON ! | Wed Dec 26 1990 12:51 | 25 |

Joe,
We have about 4" of snow here now and the temps are around 16 degrees
with all the rain weve been haveing I would guess the rivers will be
pretty high especially the Oswego I was up by there a couple weeks ago
and the water was up at least 2-3 foot.
I dont know if youve fished the Salmon river before but its probably
the most dangerous river in this section of NY. the water level is
controlled by a hydro electric dam in altmar, the water level can rise
very rapidly, I would recomend chest waders with cleats on the sole
and a small hunting knife fastened to one of the chest straps, beleive
me if you go down in the river with chest waders on you will be looking
for a knife to get out of the waders cause once they are full of water
you might as well be holding a 50 lb. anchor.
You could give some of the local bait or tackle shops a call in the
area you plan on fishing they are ussually glad to help a guy out cause
that means money in their pocket if you stop there.
Good luck fishing and I will be looking for your trip report here

Lee,
I have been going up to Pulaski for the past 5 or so years
fishing for salmon, but I have never gone up after steel head. I am
really looking forward to my trip. As of now, it also looks like I
will be going up on the 2nd of Jan. but if the fishing is good I
proably will not be back until the 9th or 10th. Maybe I will see some
of you guys up there !!
I will let you know how the trip goes ...
-Joe
