QUICK LOCAL LOWDOWN REPORT
10:02 pm Sat. 9-4-10 West winds brought some salmon and trout in the Salmon River NY today however most anglers were disappointed due to inexperience. They got frustrated and left a spot to go to another. Rule of thumb: "Don't leave fish to find fish".
Windy conditions with a mix of rain made some anglers turn to the shops to see what they had to say. Lake Charters were blown off Lake Ontario NY in Oswego and Port Ontario. Some anglers still had a fun time and made the best of it. Mother Nature wears the pants in the fishing family! Not to worry, this rain, west wind, and cooler temps will bring some new salmon & trout in the River. Labor Day weekend is the Official Kick Off to our 2010 Salmon Season and it will continue to get better for incoming tourists. Stop by our shop and try some free samples of SMOKED SALMON and try one of our new Sweatshirts at only $30!!! Sizes: LG, XLG, and XXXLG. It's really coming down hard (rain) now folks.
If you don't see your date listed, we have other NY drift boat guides on our preferred list that we'll be happy to book for you. Sunset Salmon Trips typically run from the end of August until the end of September depending on how the run goes.
Just a Sunset Salmon Trip: $350
without lodging and based on 2 people
We have Lake Ontario NY Charters available and up to 4 people for $499.   |

Riverfront Lodging in Downtown Pulaski NY
 Deeded riverfront property to the middle of the Salmon River in downtown Pulaski NY enables guests of Yankee Fly Wife Approved Lodge to roll out of bed and fish the world famous, "Town Pool" and catch HUGE King Salmon. Owner and Guide, Dawn A. Rucando with her Guide Team teach guests the ins and outs of salmon fishing. All the absolute prime salmon run fall action is at it's peak from Sept 15 to Oct 15 in the downtown Pulaski NY area. We're considered the lower end of the river out of the 3 sections (lower, middle, upper) and we're approximately 6 river miles from the mouth of the salmon river and 3 road miles to the Route 3 Bridge in Port Ontario, NY. Stay, Fish, and Learn from straight shooters. Get the "Local Lowdown" because the only thing we overlook is the Salmon River NY! Due to overwhelming calls, please take some time to look over our website as all of our pictures in our photo gallery are proof that we know what we're doing! Aug 15-Sept 15=less people and (sometimes) less fish historically speaking. Sept 15-Oct 15 MORE People and more fish. Rule of thumb: PICK YOUR DATES AND PRAY FOR THE BEST! If you want to experience a circus show, come on the weekends from Sept 17,18,24,25 Oct 1,2,8,9,10,15,16. After Oct. 17 it slows down people wise because they change over to hunting deer! The fishing on the Salmon River NY is excellent after Oct. 15 and throughout the months of Nov & Dec. We're the locals so ask us when we would come.
 Roll out of bed and fish the property. Monday thru Thursdays are the BEST days to fish as you can see......there's no one around and you can catch BIG SALMON in our backyard.
Check In: After 3 pm
Check Out: Before 10 am
NEW FOR 2010!!!
Public Fishing from
10 am to 2 pm daily
Based on availability
$20 hour or 4/$50
Passes are availabe at the shop on the same day, no advance purchases please. 20 casts/2 steps down=roate the pool to be fair to all. Property will be monitored by Guide Assistants.

 Every year it never fails, there's KING salmon being caught in our backyard as early as August 15th. The word gets out fast and the official kick off to our Fall Salmon Run and what we're most famous for is Labor Day weekend (Sept. 3.4.5.& 6, 2010). This is when more salmon and brown trout start to enter and move upstream because Brookfield Power Co. releases their last 750 cfs. flow for the kayakers. This immediate change of river flow always brings fish from Lake Ontario through the estuary, past the Route 3 bridge in Port Ontario, up through the 4 mile stretch of the DSR (Douglaston Salmon Run), through the gauntlet of the "Staircase Run" and into the "Town Pool" (behind our place). So, expect to catch big salmon like this as early as August 15th thru September 6th just like these local kids did!
THE SALMON ARE RUNNING NOW AND THEY ARE IN THE SALMON RIVER NY!!! All detailed information will be given to shop customers, please no phone calls for reports. Thank you!

Another hot day at 84 degrees. Local kids were having a hard time landing fast moving king (Chinook) salmon that were here and there. I'm starting to see more anglers around and some are outfitted with their breathable waders, latest chest packs, etc, etc. Honestly all you need is a pair of felt wading shoes and some shorts or light Fla Keys pants, a hat, polarized glasses, and a small fanny pack. Oh, don't forget the beverage and food! So, a mix of King Salmon, Coho Salmon, and Brown Trout are coming into the Salmon River NY on a daily basis. The "Motherload" as everyone refers to is not here yet and who the heck knows when that will happen? Fishing is fishing.....just get up here and give it a try. Enjoy it before the heavy crowds start coming in because MORE SALMON = MORE PEOPLE. Take a moment to see some salmon at the Salmon River NY Fish Hatchery in Altmar and get your salmon chi on! CAN YOU HANDLE KING SALMON???? Come on up and give it a try. We have openings this weekend! 750 cfs release this Saturday 9-4-10 for Labor Day weekend, the official kick off to 2010 SALMON SEASON!!!
Local Kids catch King Salmon Aug. 31, 2010
