Glad to have you both aboard I look forward to hearing from ya.

There is a member meet in lake george in the spring and another member meet at seneca lake in the fall. If you have the time try to make one.

Howdy trouthead, I worked in Margaretville for 6 years was glad to go. I can remember when I was a kid the browns would come up out of the pepacton to spawn the delaware would be full of browns there by the arkville cutoff. I'm not much of a trout fisherman. I travel to the adirondacks and St. Lawrence for northerns.

wellsley,I grew up in arkville, well dry brook rd. We used to swim all summer just above the bridge,in the fall the holes there were wall to wall browns!The state would shock and weigh them,sometimes their scales would be too small,there were some real monsters that came thru there! ah,those were the days!                    

             have a veryHAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Back at ya trouthead. Happy New Year.

I wonder where all those browns went. Maybe the flood of 1987 did them in. Then 1996 finished them off.

I'm located just 5 mins from the south end of Saratoga Lake, Saratoga Co. NY.

I'm always fishing during the week while my son is in school. If anyone wants to hook up and fish sometime. I'm open to all types of fishing. catfishing, stripers, trout, smallies, panfishing, you name it all be there.

Come check out this new fishing site for the down and dirty fish'n.

Hi David

You wouldn't also be known as netboy would you.

Either way Welcome, my daughter goes to college out in that area. So I've been in that area abit.

Hey all,

I'm in Schodack, southern Rens. County.

Right now I'm looking forward to using a 2wt fly rod I'm building for trout. After that come the stripers and the shad. And in June, bass, carp...whatever! It really doesn't matter!

Snipe,

You're just right down 9 & 20 from me. You doing any trout fishing (if the water goes down)? We should get together.

welcome guys,

I'm looking forward to fishing with ChrisG in the weeks coming up.

I hope that we get into a mother load of fish. Either trout from the banks or get the canoe out in one of my panfish honey holes.

I'll be seeing ya on Friday,

Fish On!

Hello guys,

Chris you might better go west to Allegany river for those hog walleyes, I here they grow them big out there.

Welcome Jim and Fred I look forward to hearing from you guys. What do you guys fish for? As for me I like pike and musky but have to travel a good ways to catch them.

I am from Binghamton, NY

I usully take my son fishing at either the Whitney Point resivoir, or on Cayuga Lake when we are at Scout Camp.

We love to fish for catfish, but I am hapy eough to catch anything.

I don't post much,but I'm here! I've been a life member since 1990.I'm in southern Ulster County between NewPaltz and Newburgh in the town of Wallkill.I enjoy fishing in alot of areas of the Wallkill River for smallies.

I also belong to The Orange Lake Fish & Game Association for roughly 10 years or so.There,I like to target Pickerel,and the occasional Largemouth.

Tom Ballard Sr  here from Walton, N.Y.Delaware County. Love to bowhunt deer. Hunt Turkeys, and fish for trout and salmon on the Salmon river Poulaski, N.Y. I have a camp at Altmar. Fall out of bed and walk to the river. Always interested in having some company to fish with. Had a real nice fall fishing to the end of Oct and the first of Nov. Caught and released coho & chinook salmon, brown trout, steelhead and a hybred salmon. Think it was a cross between a steelie and coho salmon not realy sure.Caught this fish feb 27 2009. It weighed 12 1/2 pounds

Welcome aboard Tom. I'm North of you and know you. You use to live in Roxbury, Grand Gorge area I think.

Hey thanks for the info, I have fished the small lake near deer run/scotch valley. I have caught a few Lgmouth Bass not many big ones and a few smallies again not really big but a great fight. Have not seen pickerel in a while I think after the bad storms over the last few years they found there way out and down towards Stamford. I did last year start to fish for carp there 8lbs plus are hitting there. I did hook a nice smallie over in Edmeston in the Susquehana River going to go back and try that a bit more and I did fish early in the year last year in Oneonata off I-88 in the Susquehana but no bigs still cold and water was high and fast. I did go over to the Mine Kill and caught a tiger trout???? Fish I have never hurt of very beautiful fish but wierd looking. I also fished in and around the Gilboa area. I will find more places as time goes on. I want to head back up to Pecks Lake again this year but get up before the end of Spring. I will keep you post and feel free to send me any tips or places around the area to fish if you hear about any.

Thanks,

Lifer Rob D
