Salmon

<er man
That  message apparently went to you at Fish USA Forums as opposed to regular E-mail.
    Strongly suggested Mid October and to make your reservations QUICKLY as rooms can get scarce up there.
   In  Oct most all species are well represented and the Salmon will have most certainly been coming into the river for  a few weeks and should be found throughout the river- especially upriver and in the Fly Zones. Any later they may well be on the downslide having spawned and started dying off.
   Too much earlier may still be a bit spotty depending on the weather and river flow. Yes they are found  often in good numbers in  Sept but I have had some trips in the past where the big runs had yet to happen by then.
   End of first into Second week  of Oct is always a good bet for Salmon, Steel and some Browns too..Just be prepared for the crowds and hope not to get blown out by weather. If I only had one time to make the trip it would be then.
You were interested in the Salmon size and happy to say that its not uncommon for them to be in the 20s though most commonly in the high teens.
Have a great trip- its a great place.

Yeah- the "I hooked 30 in the ballpark last night about 4" days aren't far away.

Yup. Hook with egg sac netting- the secret weapon of the Salmon River. They can't not eat it. 

   Hey guys please dont take my last as meaning there aint nothin goin on whatsoever noplace nohow at all ever.
   Most of us that post here can go out and find one given time.   Likely most of us would be quite happy spending most of a day this time of year and finding and possibly hooking that ONE.
    But that aint IT for most folks who tune in and read our stuff and wanna plan a fishing trip.
  Would probably grow old for us too after a while. Now and then ya gotta catch fish.

Ive gotta give it to ya;That one is pretty good drake if I do say so myself... especially coming from the "king" dental flosser himself

   Just  checked the 10 day weather up there and see that it isnt much different than a month ago. Despite the recent wet weather the flow report is the same too. Thought it may change in our favor a few days ago but it seems Ma Nature isnt ready to give up on Summer yet.
     Comin up anyhow next week but the low expectations are getting lower. Not tryin to sound all negative and crappy here but just seeing the reality.
  The 'time clock' on the fishies will be going off despite conditions and something will undoubtedly start to happen in a bit.

If anyone knows what's happening up there it's gotta be Gottum!

Completely agreed hook... not down playing any boat guys at all here...just commenting on the FACT that fish do enter the river that people don't see... and more than you think DONT DIE...a lot of guys think if they don't see any; there's none there... just my take on It.... the boat guys from their lake results get a grasp of what the MAJORITY of the fish are gonna do (and sure enough they are in the river at the right time in the right spot when THE RUN enters)... and I think that in itself is an ART of its own; I have nothing but respect for a seasoned captain.... I hope to own a boat one day and fall in to that whole different world of itself...

Btw; I heard some guys are catching kings with tight/empty stomachs

Also; there's no reason for anyone to debate over what i said; by no means am I trolling or looking to stir the pot. Just stating the facts

No, I readily admit that I need both legs on solid ground in order to remain upright - even the 2-3 foot waves get to me.. Tried all the sea-sickness remedies - NADA.

I'm a ****y

Its all good Dime, I may start next week up there and then about once or twice a week there after. I like the warm water, means I don't have to wear waders

AHaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Sanity!!!!

RT--the sky isn't fallin---I suspect we'll see the Labor Weekend release and 335 after that ;)

Here chew on this one. Just read on another salmon site that the small group of kings that were maybe seen in the estuary were seen moving thru the town pool. There that should have the same effect as viagra on the russians. LMFAO!

Funny stuff here; retired guys text has been quoted twice with my name above it instead; and drake tampered with quoted text of mine.... it looms like im getting sabotaged here..lol

Hey retired guy; have fun this weekend...

lol
gotta love the speculation before the salmon run
its the same every year
i feel like a kid christmas eve too guys
have fun every one

hey someone who is still a member on that other site should post they saw a pod of ho's and watch the explosion :P
