So evreyones got them! Whats your most memorable fishing trip? Mine has to be my first trip to the salmon river. one day i asked jimmybait jim where is the closest place to go salmon fishing? Turned out was salmon river we realized it was like 4hrs away. we left on a friday night got up there all psyched in hopes to catch salmon lol well they were all dead it was january lol. so guy at fat nancy told us all thats in the river are browns and steelhead so we tried for them. not knowing squat started at altmar we had 8ft surf rods 8-17 lb test, about fifth cast i hooked into a 7 lb brown fought it and lost it in a tree stump, so the trip went on sat and sun,jimmy live bait caught a small brown maybe two lbs nice colors and my bro got a smaller brown so hr before we leave we said to each other lets try ellis cove at the bend near the parking lot ( the hole evreyone knows) i busted out my 9wt fly rod we fished for a hr there nothing jimmy live bait turns to me lets head for home told him few more casts,threw one a chartreuse estaz and whammmmm fish ran up ran down jumped outta the water once or twice, was nothing like i ever hooked in jersey at the time! Ended up landing it beautiful fish my first steelhead ever from that fish on i was hooked!! And til this day i always remember that moment fighting that fish and never returned with a spinning rod up there ( basically what also turned me onto fly fishing) whats yours guys???????
