Battle of the trout. NJ vs. NY

[FASTEDDIE29]

Gotta head west of Oswego to avoid the circus. Sometimes you gotta head north of the Salmon River to avoid that snagfest. Alot of tribs along Lake Ontario, I believe they're is over 100. Problem is alot of these tribs need rain or the fish wont run them. One creek I fish in Hannibal gets a ton of fish but only if it rains. Good thing about that one is that there is no access. You have to walk the water to find your fish.

Is stream, river fishing or lake fishing more popular in NY when it comes to Trout? Obviously if it wasn't for tourists like myself places like Pulaski, Oswego and the Catskills would be ghost towns. I love fishing NY, not just the tourist areas. Rondout Res, the Fingers, LG, LC, Saranac chain and Oneida are all beautiful lakes that I've had great experiences on. NY,NJ have alot to offer when it comes to TROPHY fisheries!!!

TIGHT LINEZ!!!

Sorry for the late report. As we entered the town we were greeted by the trout town usa signs. I knew then that this was a town with a real bad fishing problem.
We started the day on the Willowemoc which was quite leavey but we still found nice gin clear water. We fished that for a few hours with 3, 10 inch browns and a fat 18 inch brookie for me. My hot hand cousin managed 7 trout both browns and brookies.
We made a lunch stop in town where people walk around in waders like business men in suits.
After lunch we headed to the Beaverkill where it splits into the Willowemoc.
Here I managed to land just one more fish but he was a 19 male brookie in full spawning colors. I also dropped another trout trying to net.
My cousin had his share of 4 more fish.
From there we ventured to a small stream near his house that eventually dumps into the Willo. It was a hike to get to but we were rewarded with many 6 inch wild trout that gorged on bait. It was hit after hit on barbless hooks and they stole more bait than can be imagined.
Such a beautifull place.
I have a few pics but no clue on how to post nor get from the phone to the computer. Lol.
