Ronald (Since I have never met you, I feel awkward about calling you "don"), I think that my friends here have given you good advice. I would only add the following: Going back to first principles, ask yourself whether your line is a floating or sinking line. For example, I recall that &qu...

What great information you guys have provided! Thank you very much. If I manage to get down to either Malone or Lake Placid any time soon, I will try to post some info.

Thanks again.

My good friend and I have fished the West Branch Au Sable on two weekends this year: Victoria day weekend and the one after that. They stand out as some of the best trout fishing I have experienced in New York in the past few years. A few years ago, it became something of a standing joke that I simp...

I can add little to what ganman has written, but this thread deserves many more posts. A couple of years ago, I put one of Fran's Ausable Wulffs in a special box of flies that are for saving and not for using. It belongs there. Ganman's desciption of Fran applies well to my own experience when I fir...

A few of us posted fairly frequently on the Salmon and the Chateauguay during the last two seasons. I have been fishing them about as much this season as the last two, and I believe that some of the others have, too. For some reason, though, we have just not been posting reports. I was last down to ...

Yeah, like Todd B. said about knowing Fishboy... Guys can get a lot of info about the non-trout of the Ottawa Valley by looking back at older threads. Much of the content was provided by Fishboy. One day a few years ago I was up there with a good guy named Peter and I met another good guy named Darw...

Fishboy, I was about half-way through your original post when I thought about my trip to Upper Canada Village this summer with The Wife and The Boy. I recalled seeing a bunch of carp rising to breadcrumbs there and I thought to myself, "Dude, Fishboy should tie a breadcrumb fly." I was gre...

I am sorry that we have lost you from Eastern Ontario, Western Quebec, and Northern New York. However, I hope that you will continue to post from Vancouver. At least for me, this is the first opportunity to possibly receive reports from someone I know from that area. For example, I have heard that t...

I want to go to the other Salmon River in Pulaski this fall. Ideally, I would go a few times. I can often steal a Wednesday or Thursday away from my office. I have yet to catch a steelhead. I would appreciate the chance to fish with anyone who knows how to do it some time this fall. Right now, thoug...

Recent Adirondacks Report: 1236 Wed 1 Oct 08 [Henceforth all times refer to Wed 1 Oct 08] -- Left undisclosed condominium location in Centretown Ottawa. 1405 -- Left one of several Tim's in Cornwall, having consumed Turkey Bacon Club sandwich and chocolate dip donut. 1450 -- Pulled away from U.S. Cu...

Any update on the time and place where people will be meeting?

I would like to come if I can arrange things.

I guess that means that wongrs does not have the Weather Underground websites bookmarked on his home, office, and laptop computers for Malone NY, Lake Placid NY, and Pulaski NY. See: http://www.wunderground.com/US/NY/Malone.html To my mind, this is a good enough forecast for Malone that, all else be...

What time are you guys leaving Ottawa on Sunday, or meeting (where?) near Malone? I do not know if I can come, but I would like to see if there is a chance of fitting it in. I was down Tuesday and Wednesday with a buddy who is soon off to Afghanistan. We fished the Salmon down from the lower Angler'...

I hope this will not prevent responses to wongrs question. However, in light of another fellow's "current conditions" request, although I cannot provide any such website (but would like to know of one), I thought I would post yesterday's [Sunday 7 September 2008] conditions. At approximate...

Todd, Your report on the relative success that you and your wife experienced between the Au Sable and the Malone Salmon conforms completely to the sum total of my own. I am eager to get back down there soon, and you might have influenced me to not bother with the additional drive to Lake Placid. My ...
