With the Delaware system having been hit hard again by the frontal system that passed through the area yesterday wade fishing is out of the question. If you want to throw streamers out of a boat into high turbid water be my guest. More rain is forecast for today.
If you are in need of a fishing fix you might give thought to driving north to the Salmon River or one of Lake Ontario's other numerous tributaries. The water level is good even after yesterdays rain and the rivers are full of fresh run salmon.
It's sure to be crowded but judging by the number of broken rods being brought back to the Troutfitter for repairs, everyone is into big fish. If you stop at the shop on the way up Dave and Rick will fill you in on the latest reports. As always they are well stocked with flies and equipment for the fall/winter salmon, brown trout and steelhead season on the lake Ontario tributaries.
If all goes as planned by 7:15 am tomorrow morning I'll be on a plane heading for the San Juan where I will spend a week trying to get big browns and rainbows to eat tiny little midges.
