I used to fish the wall in the middle. Almost got trapped there many times when the put the water up and you could not cross back. Wen the siren wailed you had limited tire to make it across before you were stuck. City would charge you to come and rescue you.
PFD'S are required or you will be asked to leave. If you don't the police will be called, seen it a few times. I fished it a few times from the wall up and down. Fairly nice in the winter as no standing in the water. You need a LONG net though. Good browns.

I USED to fish there years ago.In the beginning it was pretty good and caught many fish.As years went by it really became a combat zone.Now I refer to it as the "land of the muntants",and I'm not referring to the fish.If that was the only game in town I would stay home.

    The pictures of the browns I have seen caught there is amazing, but thats not my kind of fishing maybe I'm just being stubborn and don't want to learn a new trick

Since it is in the city you get ALL KINDS of people there because of the easy access. You also get a high number of snagged kids there as they can walk or ride their bikes there. Once the weather gets cold it clears out. You can fish at night  (above the utica bridge Sept to April excluded ) and get some eyes and occasional browns

I'm on the board as of yesterday 2/3 on kings worked my butt off for them. I will try to post pictures when I get home. Getting ready to give it another crack today

Nice!

You deserved them. It'll get better, too.

on the board 2/3 but covered lots of ground and water. Reports of browns being caught ballpark and below. Saw a 12 lbs brown at a cleaning station. A few fishermen with so nice fresh cohoes in the town pool. It is slowly starting but still a long way to go. I will try to post some pictures when I get home. Just standing riverside waiting for daylight.

Hatchery will be putting on a steelhead seminar tomorrow with Joe Godspeed being the presenter. I am thinking of going of for some info. Hey every little nit helps.
 

If I was close by, and not able to fish, I'd go listen.
 
Gotta squeeze the juice out of a bunch of peppers this weekend, though, while the family goes to Naples for the grapefest. 
 
Pick up some tips for us !
