appalachian, Welcome (back).
I live in Western New York and fish the Niagara River, Lake Ontario and its tribs. The salmon run is pretty much over for the year, but the Steelhead, Browns and Lakers (Out of season till Jan 1st) are in now. My family life is busy right now, too busy to plan a trip, but if you should ever find yourself making your way up here I'd be glad to fish the lower river with you. If you want to know of local fishing spots and techniques there are a few local web sites/forums to get you started. Go to www.outdoorsniagara.com and look for the fishing reports link for current conditions. Another decent site is www.sandersfishingguides.com
By the way, nice steelies in that picture. Without being too specific, where did you catch them at?
Tom.
