Are the Browns In?

Get on the road!

Great news! Heading up sun for a couple days this weekend. Give report when we return!

go to burts last week landed a 12lb 29 in nice fish . some steelheads to . could see lots of browns to[ egg sacks] are great bait and single egg have fun wish i was there

just got back from burt today some browns but not worth a 230 mile trip

*raises hand* travels a lot too.... right anadromous?...I been in NY 13 days since beginning of october
....it puts a whoppin on your body. The browns defnitely arent as heavy yet, but I will let you know when
I catch some I am guessing by the end of this month

head east of rochester if you are anxcious for monster steelies and browns... they are sniffing around there

Was up last weekend and it was a little slow a few kings around Caught a few browns but not like past years. Maybe give it a week or so. Seems the heavy harvest is putting a hurting on the browns. Got into some steel though.

I'm leaving tomorrow for oak for 3 full days.  I'll report how it is when i get back.

Just got back from a couple days in New York, fished Burt.  Fishing was definately not as good as we have seen in past years. Water was low and clear, still quite a few salmon around. Browns seemed to show up in better numbers the second day. The morning bite was good but after 9-10 am, things really shut down. Tough fishing, a few guys fished the dam the second day with little to no success. The tressle seemed to produce the most fish consistently. We did end up with some browns but certainly not the numbers we have enjoyed in the past.  All in all a decent trip, weather held up well.  No snow like around here and temps in the 40's.  Talked to some other guys we ran in to from Ohio that fished Oak for a few days prior to us getting there and did well.  More water there, good luck on your trip.

I'm back;  Arrived home (Berlin Pa.) on Tues. evening after my 2nd. trip to the Oak. Much better weather this trip; and more Browns than the 1st. Not a huge amount of Browns; but enough to make me yearn for another trip ASAP. A few guys checked other tribs and pretty much had the same advice; stay at the Oak because the others were still a little low and very few fish were seen. It is raining now ; so that is subject to change. Had a few 1st. timers with us and the top keeper (fair hooked) was 13 lb. 4 oz. I had my biggest fish in the net but it was hooked under the chin; probably close to 15 lb. All told it was a great trip and worth the 6 and a half hour drive. In case you haven't heard; the Archery Club is not available to park after Sun. the 16th. because of some work on the road and parking area.The leaves were a pain for a while due to the flow thru the overflow channel on Mon. the 10 th. Cleared off on Tues. Good Luck.

Managed to land 8 browns in 2.5 days of fishing and lost alot more.  Water was beautiful thursday and friday and dropped and cleared saturday morning.  Alot of hook ups with steelhead and a pretty fair amount landed.  Salmon sacs were all i had luck with.  One of the guys with us got a 11.5lber..  She was a pig.  Late saturday morning the action stopped like someone flipped the switch.  The water cleared and dropped and people were coming out of the wood work.  We called it at 1 o clock and started drinking at the cottage.  Good trip by all means, everyone was very happy!

I was up there last friday morning - sunday. I wouldn't make a trip up from maryland if i were you. 

Definitley tough conditions up there recently. Fished on Sunday all day with very poor results. Fish just seemed far and few between in all locations I fished, including some smaller tribs.
