Back to the Salmon stomping Grounds for the 4th weekend in a row.

Got together on Friday night and off to Olcott we went to the snag capital of the world. Burt Dam.

Got to the place around 4am and already there were 15 cars in line waiting for the parking lot to open. As always place was an absolute zoo but having come 3 cars strong we quickly got our spots and made sure no one was able to move in.

Fish was sluggish and not a lot of fighters were around even though it was still pretty fresh. Limited out within an hour and half and spend the rest of the morning just having fun and nursing back the fish that was being released while snagged. Browns did not want anything to do with us and did not see a single chrome caught. Managed to hook into nice 8lbs brown but got him by the dorsal fin so back into the water he went. Out of 8 people that went 7 limited out with the last one just not keeping any fish. Around 2pm we got and headed out to Pulaski.

Got there around 5:30 and crashed for the night. Up at 5am on Sunday and off to Altmar for some more fishing. Fishing was more or less productive. Multiple hook ups and at th end of the day one more salmon and chrome were added to the mix. Great times, great people and tons of fun. There were almost no one on the river and pretty much we had multiple pools to ourselfes.

Now for the sad part .... Camera drowned at the Burt Dam and to top it off I did manage to loose my cars keys somewhere at Altmar I belive when I was stuck in a mud. Only good part I was not driving but still sucks to be me.

Fish on my friends, fish on.

Thank Thank you.

Jimmy,

Yeah usually something have to happen but those loses over the weekend I can live with. Plus still will be there this weekend again so maybe I will find them keys.

Eddy,

Weather was nice and cold on Saturday but Sunday was raining on and off so probably that made a lots of people stay at home. Town pool still populated with chrome for those looking for silver bullets.

Otherwise I only went through 3 bottles this weekend so its a good weekend for me comparing to the last two when I couldn't land a fish.

Cant wait to get out again since I doubt anyone would want me on the boat this weekend.
