Title: Salmon River Tue-Wed for steelhead report.
Post by: fishon42 on April 03, 2014, 03:11:58 PM

Hey guys, long time since I have been on here! Hope everyone is doing real well TT^

Fished salmon river in Pulaski with blue egg sacs hooked up with 1 lost it, only fished for a few hours tuesday as the water went up to 1200 cfs from snow melt and warmer weather. Fished yesterday at the river couldnt get by the schoolhouse pool it was packed, so went over by the staircase and above there and saw one flash its belly in the water when drifting by it but nothing. Was with cousin father and uncle. Then on way home we went to Oswego Dam to get a vision and that looked like the atlantic ocean during a severe thunderstorm, so no fishing there. We then stopped at Wine Creek in Oswego which runs into lake ontario, very small behind a cemetary. Saw 6 steelies go by, some nice bright red ones and some large ones no hook ups besides my cousin hooked up with one about 23 inches but snapped his line it wanted nothing to do with him. Weather is beautiful up there, was nice to get up there since I didnt get up there for the salmon run this past fall. Good luck this year everyone  msfsh

Nice to see a report from Lake Ontario. Our crew did not make it up last call either. We always have a great time Salmon fishing the lake and Salmon river.  t^

Thanks Hunter.. yeah was a shame didnt get up to salmon river. The run is always fun! mid to late october at Orwell Brook is like Heaven for salmon. Caught a nice 6 pound male hook jaw brown in there too. Nice picture, looks like a female King and perhaps on a boat in salmon river towards the estuary t^
