Best fishing is in November when the salmon die believe it or not, thats when the Steelhead take over all 8-25lbs or so, brite as a dime. I got mojo when it comes to steelhead and I'm usually into some of the biggest fish. The other thing is in nov. the brown trout fishing is crazy, they're easy to catch and run from like 8lb's to close to 30. The browns follow the salmon to eat the egg's then head back to the lake in late nov. The steelhead stay all winter feeding getting ready to spawn in spring then head back to lake. Some of the best steelhead fishing is in the dead of winter when we have up to 15 ft. of snow on the ground. Since my accident I cant winter fish anymore and honestly its hard getting to rivr anyhow. I fish for steelhead for the first couple hours the the rest of the day the browns are the bread and butter fish you can hook up pretty steady all day. Plus I'm not big on crowds so if I wait till nov. the salmon snaggers are gone by then and you can really fish. I'm good about the flooded cottage my wives brother likes to take over so I'm headin up for a month or so next week. Anybody wants to fish call (570) 396-8783. I'm directly off rt. 81 easy to find. It's dangerously addicting to some so be forewarned, you can end up like a fishing bum same as me. Last season on flyrod my biggest King salmon was 37lb's, my biggest Steelhead was 24lbs, and I caught a 29lb brown all in a river bout 25 yards across. Its pretty amazing actually and tll you see it you cant believe it.
