Instate or out of state des not matter. I call them fishheads and have since I was young. Anyone who does not frequent the river area in general outside of  fishing is a fishhead.  Outside of the town pool area there are very  few  '' Pulaski guys''  trashing the river, drinking at 9am and being self centered a holes so don't give me the line that's it's them trashing THE WHOLE RIVER.   Any parking lot has at least 33% out of state plates . There are very few ''local'' folks fishing at any given time. Local is you pay taxes to a district the river is in. If you are not local you get lumped in with everyone else to me. It's how you conduct yourself that sets you apart.  Like Trev said,   It is not the POS out of staters it is just the plain old POS people period, local, from cuse or from Alaska.

Oota's is a better term... as Clint is correct with in staters still contributing. Guys, don't take offense as it really doesn't apply to most anyone I've met here. But you must realize how much of a traveling circus act it looks like when you see it come and go with the salmon run.

Jack you are a stand up visitor :) and I agree 100% with refundable containers. And yes plenty of garbage is thrown from locals in the off season. Alaska sounds great, where are you heading?

Andy the river is the Kanektok,also known as the "Chosen River",it is near Quinhagak in the SW.

I kinda get what L-13 said but think it was in poor choice of words .
Andy kind of summed it up as a traveling circus . Granted we all have been a part of that as well but it's the majority that make it a bad experience , not the minority .
Personally , I can't take it any longer . I don't like a lot of people in one place in general and the view isn't so great anymore . Even in the winter it can be difficult as once the flotilla starts .
Good luck to all and talk to ya when I touch down in the states later today

I think if you check those beer cans out you will find most are not $0.o5 returnables.
At least that is what I have found.
 
Pigs live everywhere.
Its people that figure they won't be back soon 
who feel they can toss there trash anywhere they want.

This out of stater has picked up lots of trash on the SR and I bet a lot of that was from resident "slobs" as they.the slobs live everywhere.Why not have a deposit fee on all beverage containers so when I pick them up I can get rewarded for my efforts,but when the "slobs" realize they are throwing money down on the trail they might stop and think,if they have a brain in their head.
Why do I fish for SAlmon? Well I love it when they rip my line down to the backing and show me the fight they are capable of,there is nothing locally that compares so I make the drive North to get my "FIX",however next year I'm going to Alaska to get a taste of the real "Thing",maybe after that the SR will se no more of me.

New York has a deposit on most beverage cans, the ones you find with no deposit are from other states.
 
We wait for the chromers anymore, they may not be as big as the kings but they are twice as fast.  But if you can afford to go to Alaska, you should be able to afford a few days in DSR, and the crowds are thin down there.  The last couple of times that I fished the Zone, it was more snaggers than anglers, even with all the tackle restrictions.

Lucky13 you gotta be kidding me.  First, nearly all fishermen on the SR are instate.  Second, look at the beer can waste:  always the cheap stuff.  Out of state guys aren't fishing the town pool and the waste is horrible.  The DSR sees very little waste.  No, it's the Pulaski guys spewing the waste by a wide margin.  

I'm with Clint, the lots have plates from all over, and as I said, if they are no deposit beercans they came from  out of state (Only Albany could exempt cider cans that are identical to beer cans from deposit, but I doubt you are seeing many craft cider cans along the river.)  Most of the posters on the Salmontime site that are posting their hero shots in the town pool are out of staters, and you are an out of stater. 
 
The DEC study says the fishery is worth about 12.5 million lakewide.  Most of the residents of Pulaksi work there, or in the 'Cuse, or around Oswego, and do not rely on the fishery.   The local poachers from Rochester don't need to travel, they can rip up the Genny or Sandy, same with Oswego.

I'm in my mid 70's and always wanted to see Alaska and fish there,so as my time is getting short it's now or never.The last time I was at the DSR the crowd was not thin and the snaggers were down there also.The LFZ is now the "stealth lifter fly rod holder spot",I prefer the UFZ but this year when I was there it was a bust because of the warm water, there were very few fish and they were not hitting .

Good luck with the trip of a lifetime!  I hope that I am still able to walk into the UFZ when (if) I make it to mid 70's.  The muscles are protesting quite a bit in the mid 60's!
 
UFZ will probably be loaded when this water comes down!  Of course, many will be not long for this world this late in October.
