Salmon Fishing - Pulaski, NY 2013




As our autumn ritual, we went salmon fishing last weekend in the Salmon River.
Playing tug-of-war with this powerful fish gives us a lot of fun and excitement.
Unlike trout fly fishing, it is not quite demanding on us regarding to skill, knowledge or tactics etc., though we need to be in good spots.





This year we were fortunate that the river condition and the weather were very good.
Plenty of salmons were in the river. Somewhat mysterious to us, we saw almost all salmons caught were kings. In past years, we saw mix of silvers and kings.
We had many chances to fight with the fish and landed some nice kings.
We really enjoyed catching these enormous fighters under this year's summer like weather.

  2. Hi LQN, We fished in the upper fly fishing only area. It was crowded as usual, but there were a lot of fish enough for everyone.

  3. Nice Job. It's like hooking into a monster trying to pull you into the water
