World-Class Salmon Fishing

What’s biting and when.

August through October is prime season for some great Chinook and Coho salmon fishing. The fall scenery is breathtaking, the water's cold and clear, and the salmon are in abundance.

September through December is the best time for Brown Trout. Guests have reeled in some amazing catches this time of year and there's no reason you can't do the same.

October through April is when the Steelhead are running, and when the river is a catch in itself—stark, raw, and brilliant in the bracing cold of a Central New York winter.

May through September you can expect lots of Trophy Small Mouth Bass, Resident Brown Trout, Skamania (summer run) Steelhead, and the potential for elusive Atlantic Salmon. With the summer sun on your back and the sweet smell of Queen Ann's Lace in the air, it's a fisherman's paradise.
