Due to lack of rain there is still good night time Salmon fishing to be had. The fish are stacked up in the estuary still even though there are fish all the way to the hatchery. Here are some pictures of some nice Kings caught the last couple weeks while night fishing.

Decided to go out this morning and row around to see if the Brown Trout where hitting yet. The answer was yes. We fished for one hour and 40 minutes had 4 hits and landed 3. Two nice brown trout and one very nice steelhead. The wind and waves picked up so we headed in happy with our catch.

This past weekend the fishing slowed this past weekend. I believe it had to do with 2 things. One factor is the fact that the steelhead are starting to prepare for the spawn. The other was the fact that there was a big stone fly hatch this weekend with the warm weather. The snow on the banks was almost black with stone flies. They were everywhere.

We fished from Altmar to Route 2A on Saturday with only 2 fish on and landing none. On Sunday we fished the Lower Fly Zone in Altmar from 7 am to 9 am hooking 3 steelhead and landing none. One was fouled hooked so we broke it off. The other two broke the 6 pound tippet.

The water was at 900 cfs and will be through Tuesday. I am guessing there is a good chance of it going higher after that as it was 50 degrees this afternoon in Pulaski, NY. They are calling for a major change in temperature at the end of the week. There will be a serious cold snap that will slow down the run off and the river level will most likely drop.

If you are going to fish the next week egg patterns, stone flies, and streamers will all be good choices if you are fly fishing. For the spin and pin fisherman 8 mm and 6 mm beads in natural colors will be a good bet. This is a great time of year for a drift boat trip down the river allowing you to cover much more water then you would on foot. Good luck and see you on the water.
