Introductions and The Meeting Ground

Introduce yourself here if you're a new member. Also post here if you're looking for a fishing partner or have an open seat.

lol green county? no wonder! lol just kidding , you must get alot of bites out of the canonvilles reservior? west brach ? alot of nice ponds for brookies too there! alot of steep grade!

Sweet, got a fellow deadhead on board. I may have to take you up on the invite on "your" lake.
 
Doug here. I work as a chemical plant operator. I suck in toxic fumes all day, so be patient with me if I ever act strange.
 
Love all types of fishing, but walleye are my favorite.
 
Grew up in Westchester County. Came up here for lower property taxes, and my wife's job. We have a 2 year old daughter.
 
Been to about 200 dead shows, which also may explain my strange behavior.
 
I own a 16ft starcraft with a 40hp mariner. Like I've said earlier, all are welcome to join me. Unfortunately, my crazy work schedule along with family duties only allow me to get out fishing once or twice per week.

Welcome abord Jimmy - you'll find a great bunch of people here ...

Hiya Jimmy-  I'm in Rensselaer Cty also, welcome aboard!  My cousin lived on Snyders Lake up til a couple years ago when he got married.  Beautiful spot.  
Myself- I work at for the Postal Service in Albany, evening shift. Married, 2 teenaged kids, boatless.  I will fish for whatever is biting whenever.  I ice fish in the winter, fish for trout in April, stripers and shad in May and bass/walleye/pike from June til winter. Maybe a little Salmon River action mixed in there too.
Not a deadhead but I sure hung out with a lot of em. Groovin' with nature, thats how I roll too. More of a Beatlebum or an Alice-in-Chains-head.
Anyway, enjoy the board, great bunch of guys. 

 

 

 
 
Here ya go Jimmy  

      Dang ...... 


Welcome to all the new guys .... 

Originally, started here investigating reports for salmon river which I started fishing as soon as i was eligable for driving hence the name "backin79"  that's basically where it all started..still in nnj but have not hunted or fished in jersey well over a decade.. I love new york, been my passion to fish a number of gamefish species throughout most the confluences of the delaware basin these days. Awhile ago the ashokan which was the first reservoir up there that got me hooked to trout /walleye but the walleye are much harder to find these days in ashokan .. caught some this spring in region 7 and like that area too especially onieda lk. but it is too **** far from nj  Still shopping for a digital camera but want a really good point and shoot so I can get 5 stars ! lol I have been fishing four reserviors  2 boats on roundout /2 boats on pepacton/ 1 boat on ashokan (lower basin now) and a boat i was almost gonna take out if it weren't so dam muggy yesterday on the neversink. I been a die hard in pursuit of the monster trout in these impoundments for well over 20 years. Witnessed many changes good and bad and wish to support the quality of our fisheries state wide. Enjoy! 

Just found this thread!! Hi all I'm Kevin from Poestenkill,NY!! Found this site througth REEL FORCE!! I hunt and fish just about every thing!! Looks like I'll have some fun on this site!!!

Blitz, in my early 20s I bought in the local want ad my first  12' pos jon boat to keep at the ashokan although it is still safe i rarely use it anymore, that boat is locked to a tree over at the roundout res... just a few seasons  later I bought more used rowboats  one more jon 14' now on the lower basin of ashokan ( don't go much there anymore either) My favorite two 14' and also two V hulls I like using are over at the pepacton another on the neversink and one on the roundouts deeper end. I own a crawdad too as well as a sit on top kayak i modified for the upper del. fishing and use to fish  all these  vessels alot more. I am still into it, just that I can't afford the time being everywhere like the good old days! lol I do not go much if any salmon fishing but do like to squeeze in a trip or two for pulaski steelhead in the late fall usually nov. or warm dec. But I have thousands of hours on all the reservoirs I mentioned. I also enjoy flyfishing alot of the catskill streams mainly above roscoe for those bragging size illusive natives/holdovers. Really would wish for an introduction of a state walleye reintroduction program for at least two prime candidates, the ashokan and pepacton which at one time had a well established self reproductory. I believe all will benefit, these impoundments are big enough to provide another gamefish which is much more rewarding on the plate!

Ummm........... first tree on the right ...    

Hello I'm Ryan.  I have been creeping around the sire for awhile now and I thought I would introduce myself.  I grew up in western PA.  I used to hunt but have fallen out of it for about 9 years.  I still fish as my schedule allows.  I'm a chef and have lived everywhere from Cleveland to the Carribean.  I am in Ithaca, NY right now and plan on it for a long time I am sick of being a food gypsie, I'm settling down. Who knows maybe I'll even pick up a shotgun again. 
Well good to meet you.
Ryan 

Hi guys. I'm Alan and I spent May 2002 to May 2007 serving in the US Navy. Spent 4 out of those 5 overseas in Gtmo, Cuba and then Andros Island. Finished my last year at the Saratoga Springs, New York Naval Base. You probably never heard of it because its basically a parking lot with some buildings. I was a Navy Police Officer my whole enlistment and reached E-5...yes yes...I sank your battleship... I have fished my whole life with bass my favorite. C+R is the way for me, unless its some fat sunnies and perch. ReelForce has been a great friend of mine for quite awhile now and he even forgave me for ditching my fishing partner to serve our homeland. I don't get to fish nearly as much as I would like, but I currently drive school bus's...lol, I know machine guns to bus driver? but the kids are a riot and it pays my college tuition. Oh yeah...I'm also going to college. I live in Schenectady, NY with my sugar momma in our "new" old house. Thanks for listening and tight lines!
