Awesome Day 9/26/12!!!

nice report.
the kind that keep knewbies like me trying.
got any pictures.
they say a picture is worth a thousand words.
 
have you heard of the mff site.
it seems like all the guys there have days like that.
i bet you;d fit in real at hime there.

Yeah I got pictures trying to upload them from my Trac phone.
P.S. whats the MFF site?

BigBear, can you use spoons as long as they have a single hook I will pick some up from Fat Nancys tomorrow? Were you using the Berkley worms?

Dont have that bait problem- The trick is to lube your bait and line - the fish take it so deep it poops right out and then another does the same thing- ETC  ETC ETC- -Be sure and use that 60 lb test as there are generally a dozen or so on the line in just a few minutes.
  Dont retrieve too quick though as they will all pop right off. Pull slowly and wait for a pucker.

All that pooping hooks aside, it sounds like its gonna get crowded fish wise real soon. Gotten a few reports that a crap load more fish have been coming in today. Had a crew there today (lower river) saying everywhere they looked it was fish. In their words, "here we go again".

yep the dsr is hot
that and the west side of the town pool

Thanks for the info twobob, I'm going to the lfz this morning I just bought a new Phlueger president bait cast reel from All Seasons I want to try today.

Try the new lifting wall at the Church Pool.  I always try to go by the  sound advice I got in the 80's -if it bounces add the ounces.

Thanks for the good wishes and LFZ advice Bob. Have actually been considering the little stream that cuts off to the right up between the wires.
  A friend who uses 'natural' bait mostly has reported  uncooked medium sized Shrimp has resulted in multiple hookups  in the Ballpark area.

oh man
i was just at the rt 3 bridge and watched about 10000 bright shiney fish move up into the dsr, i think i can head them off at the town pool.....gotta go!

The ones with batteries that vibrate seem to bring those  fishy things in from far and wide. Another SR secret made public- ARUGGGGGH

Christian- please read my PM to you- lots of kidding and ribbing on this particular post so please dont take it as Gospel.

The DEC don't mess around.

i've always found that if you are going fish someplace when its closed its best to do it as effeciently and as quickly as possible ....so when i hit the lfz or dsr at night i just bring the tuna rod with 50 lb braid and the michigan crickets....i can hook em and land em and be gone before the dec guys can finish their doughnuts
amazing at how effective some fly patterns are!

you're welcome.
i am only a newbie so i am glad i was able to help you out.
i would go back to the lfz if i were you.
what are the odds that this dec man you mention will be there 2 days in 1 week.
besides 20 fish in a morning isn't that terribly bad.
i remember once back in the mid 70s that i got only 15 or so in a morning.
of course there was a moritorium on stocking salmon back then so the numbers were less.
good luck to you whereever you go.
golden beetle out.
 
rg are you talking about the little trickle at the wire hole or the creek that is just above the lfz.
the second is the best natural bait fishery i have ever encountered.
just snag a hen cut her open, grab a baggy full of eggs and let the rest flush into the current.
the hen might get a ticket for chumming but that isn't my problem.
