Oswego,NY Oct 5-9, 2008
We fished the "Sandys" for trout on Monday and Tuesday afternoon with a little luck. We did very well on Tuesday AM with Kevin Davis, catching almost 20 salmon and 3 Rainbows. Bob was on fire as he must have had more than 20 hookups and 15 fish in as I was busy doing most of the netting while KD took pics...Wild. Wednesday AM with KD was slow as we landed just 5, but after he'd hooked his last fish, Bob handed the rod off to a 12 yr old kid that was fishing with his dad, and his smile at the end was our reward, as he got the fish in! (See below) There were hundreds of guys hunting salmon on the South Sandy and more than a thousand, maybe two, on the Salman River - It looked like the valley of the living dead - ugly - so we by passed most of that. All in all the weather was too nice for really good fishing, but it made for 4 beautiful days.
