The Three Rules of Fishing

1. Bait your own hook.

2. Clean your own fish.

3. Tell your own lies.

Nothing monstrous (they're still in the river, one with my hex fly in his mouth) but some good fun nonetheless. From my float/wade trip with my Dad on the "Holy Water", the flies only,catch-and-release section of the Au Sable in northern Michigan

Nice shots GoBlue! seeing pictures like yours is what brought me back to HSO. I'll be brookie fishing this weekend with my kids. You aren't helping me with my itch.

All fishermen are liars except you and me and to tell you the truth, I’m not so sure about you.

Not a lot of trout pics lately so I thought i'd post a couple. My buddy came home from Sweden and he wanted to try to get some brookies and browns in MN. We did well, lots of both species, this was his first and biggest brown of his life. A 18" brown.

A few Lake Ontario Steelhead trout + 1 Coho picture, winter trout fishing the Salmon river area of NY is world class fishing and 1 of my favorite times of the year.

Southwick - AWESOME PICTURES!!! thanks for sharing. I have fished the Lake Ontario and Erie tributaries A LOT in the past few years, and when I moved to Minnesota...those opportunities went array. My father, brother cousin and some friends are fishing the Lake Ontario tributaries as we speak, and boy oh boy are the browns in heavy right now! I will have to put together some pictures from out east and post them on this page.

I feel your pain THavas. I lived in Syracuse for 2 years while attending graduate school and regularly hit the Salmon River which is a Lake Ontario tributary. Some of the best/most fun fishing i have ever experienced! Salmon/Browns in the fall and beautiful Steelhead all winter long! Man I miss that place. Two great years of fishing adventures i will never forget!

You guys need a road trip.

Guys I’m more of a winter rat on the Salmon River, so I wait till the lake effect snows + cold weather sets in that way I can have entire areas to myself. I always land a few Brown trout every year with my best going about 12lbs but have seen Browns close to 20lbs caught.

Love to see your Big Brown pictures.

Here’s a few nice male Steelhead pictures + 1 nice colored hen.

First steelhead I ever caught. This was in March 2005

I have only fished the SR 2 days...but man would I love to fish it during the winter. I have a great friend that moved up there a few years ago when he got a job at the Oswego power-plant. He fishes it when he can depending on work (baby on the way ow too)
