If it is venison, it cannot be whitetail. Probably fallow deer. Not much fat to induce flavor (not that whitetail has any either).

Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.

I'll talk to you Trev.  Just returned from a trip to Pulaski.  Stayed at Whitakers, which is always nice.  Had 2 day passes for DSR, Wednesday and Thursday.  Not much happening overall, although conditions were good and improving.  Fought 2 fish on Wednesday, landed neither.  The first king hit a swung root beer colored bugger.  We wrestled around in the pool in front of me for a couple minutes then he took off toward downstream rapids.  I thought it was over but he didn't want to go back to the lake, he wanted to go up!  So he took off upstream.  I thought 'this is good, I'll have a chance to turn him...' Wrong.  Way into my backing, he accelerated, made one impressive jump totally out of the water and shook off.  I was overmatched.  I have landed many kings on the SR and this was by far the biggest fish I've ever hooked up with there.  The second fish was a "normal" 17-18 lber that took a pink blood dot.  That fight only lasted 15 seconds til he shook off.  That was it for Wednesday.  Otherwise I saw very few fish hooked or landed.  I realized that relatively speaking, I'd had a good day.  Yesterday (Thursday), was a beautiful day.  Thought there was a good chance for a major push but that never materialized.  I checked out the ball park on the way to the DSR...nothing.  I spent the morning just hiking the upper half of Douglaston watching guys flog the water and scouting some sections I had never been to before.
 
The highlight of yesterday was going to the new "Dunkin" (no donuts in the name anymore)

We went to Pulaski for first time at DSR sept 11. Very few guys. Very few fish. We did find some down low. I’m guessing at the “peak” of run in October it will be much more crowded? They say they allow 250 people per day.
In your guys’ experience, is there still room to fish? We walked the entire stretch and it’s beautiful water. Seems like there would be a place for everyone but I’m guessing the holes get filled up.

Second day we fished public water below town hole and above it. Not so many guys. It was hilarious to watch ten dudes at the “staircase” hole slappin the water over and over! I guess it’s popular, cause the fish gotta pass thru there!

We are headed back there October 2. Hopefully there will be more fish!

I am not ignoring everyone. Phone plus login issues.
Kinda like it though.

Many many fish on October 2. I’ve never seen anything like it!
I’d love go go back up there for steelies and browns. When’s the best time for that?
