Cant wait to get up to New York and Erie. I fly fish for them but i want to see if i can stick one on the 316 shad and 6" trout. I watched a brown eat a steelhead smolt one time,and caught a steelhead with a smolt in its belly about 8" long.

we fly fished for em... there are all sorts of rules and regs using single hooks and stuff on this river... but trying out the 316 in like the harbors/river mouths and stuff would be sick... unreal finding a 8" smolt in that steelies gut... I cant even imagine that... we had to let our trout go because they wernt in season but kept the kings... I didn't even think to look in their stomachs... woulda been cool!

:shock::shock: Just seen this :shock: Why are you not throwing swimbaits for those monsters!?!?!?!? :lol:

 

haha they have all sorts of regulations for hooks and stuff.... out around the mouths of the river in the harbor I throw swimbaits but never had any luck.... I use deep diving crank baits out there and nail em with those... unreal fight... using a 12' fly rod, its just nutty :D

Salmon River is just plain insanity. I went once with a guide throwing egg flies. Hooked 22 fish, landed 2. Those salmon are torpedoes shooting down the river in 2 feet of water.

 

yeah its insane! such a blast though! chasing em like 100 yds down river.... its so fun
