Headed up to Salmon land in NY for 3 days with Capt Wayne, Met by stelly and Greg Day 2. Also seen Mr o conner and cb on day 3. Nice r&r needed the getaway .
Our Buddy who lives up there gave us a call that a fresh run came up. Headed to Oswego 1st. Only 5 other peolple at the dam in the morning, gotta love sept and the early runs. Little crowded in the Non-wader zone.
Absolutely crushed them day one, Had our limit by 10am of legal mouth hooks.
Tons of hookups and fished released. 0ver 50 hookups each for me and wayne. Fish to 27lbs
With sore arms and no sleep we retired at lunch time.
