Salmon River Trip

[Terry C]

I'm heading up to the SR Thursday morning for the weekend for a little steelheading.  Anyone else going to be up there.  I'll post report when I get back.  As usual my luck everytime I go the SR water levels gets bumped up due to lots of rain. Oh well make the best of it.

Has anyone ever fished one of these flies from “Uncle Keith” from RiRa Beer Tie days?

Yes - the Orange ones were killer in AK - this pic is from 2013. 

Never used them in NY though, just responding to the general "Has anyone ever used" part, and that fly brought back some 

great memories!! 

Hope everyone is well in TPFRland!!

terry will be up there next week but the high water levels should not impact fishing too much just be sure to scale the patterns accordingly, i.e. maybe slightly larger and brighter due to higher or off-color water.

Another thing I have found is that people will often be standing where the fish want to be, thinking that they are still where they would be in lower water conditions, however, I have found that the fish will shift positions as the water level changes and the hydrology changes also.

Myself and Regan went up last Thursday for 3 days of swinging on the SR.  Arrived Thursday around noon and hit the water around 2:00  Water levels came up to 1650 out of the dam for the weekend and around 2000 at Pineville ramp and picking up more as you went down river. .  Over three days we covered a fair amount of water including the DSR on Friday morning.  I managed a 12"  atlantic on Thursday in the sportsman pool,  then we were both shut out after that.  Had a great time with Regan and a local guy who I have fish with over the years. It was good to get away from Northern Virginia.  Liked the reference to " uncle Keiths" fly.  wow, where is he these days.  I use to sit with him when we met at the Ra Rah for beer tie.
