Olcott and Pulaski Weekend

[XXlyakattacker]

Love your stories dude! They remind me of myself a few years back when I mastered drinking! Lmao! If my car keys or wallet weren't lost I couldn't find my pole! Kee um coming.

Sounds like a fantastic trip Andre and company. I haven't been to Burt in quite a few years. Lots of interesting YouTube videos about that place, oh boy! Where's my fish soup buddy? How was the weather up there? Glad you guys got your limits! YEA BUDDY!!!

good job Andre, nice report. glad to hear you guys got your limits and did alot of fishing instead of the usual drama that follows you, but of course u had to lose the keys.....wouldnt be a normal time if something didnt happen haha.........thanx for the update

Thank Thank you.

Jimmy,

Yeah usually something have to happen but those loses over the weekend I can live with. Plus still will be there this weekend again so maybe I will find them keys.

Eddy,

Weather was nice and cold on Saturday but Sunday was raining on and off so probably that made a lots of people stay at home. Town pool still populated with chrome for those looking for silver bullets.

Otherwise I only went through 3 bottles this weekend so its a good weekend for me comparing to the last two when I couldn't land a fish.

Cant wait to get out again since I doubt anyone would want me on the boat this weekend.

I'd like to do 1 last gathering at camp this yr, probably to cold for camping but a day of fishing after the crowds die down would be nice.

Definitely sounds like a good time!

Couple questions though. I've never been up there but have done some research on the subject. From what I gather, and correct me if I'm wrong. You drive quite a ways to get up there to almost literally fight for a spot, to catch fish that prob won't hit and need to be snagged, and may or may not even be edible depending on how long they've been in the river??? But they fight really well..... Kinda sums it up?

Not to mention another license purchase......

LoL that's pretty much sums up Olcott and Pulaski at beginning of November

Drive about 4 hours from where I am at which also depends on how heavy your foot is.

Wrong about snagging though. Fish will and does hit depending on variations of the bait you are using. It might take time. You might snag a fish or two. But you will get fish the proper way with some effort.

Currently you wont be fighting for any spots only the most popular holes might have more than a few people fishing them.

As far as edible goes. Been catching fresh salmon al the way to mid November but still do not find king salmon all that tasty so to the smoker they go. Coho and steel on the other hand are very tasty indeed and very god for consumption. Never caught Atlantic yet but that's the stuff you pretty much buy in supermarkets so here goes all you taste preference.

Now if we do go I want all the eggs being a greedy selfish bastard that I am. Must make more caviar and been find it hard to convince people to sell them to me.

Anyways it is a trip of a lifetime and doing it with crazy nj fishing crew is def. a perfect way to do it.
